Answer:

1 pear costs 20 cents. 1 peach costs 10 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents pears

y represents peaches

4x + 2y = 1

2x + 3y = 0.7

multiply the second equation by -2 to elimate the x variable

(2x +3y = 0.7) -2 = -4x - 6y = -1.4

add the new equation to the first original one:

4x + 2y = 1

<u>-4x - 6y = -1.4</u>

-4y = -0.4. divide both sides by -4, y = 0.10

plug in y = 10, solve algebraically and get x = 0.20

Lastly, check your work:

4(0.20) + 2(0.10) = 1

2(0.20) + 3(0.10) = 0.7

1.1x+1.2x−5.4=−10 x=
katrin [286]

1.1x+1.2x-5.4=-10x

Move all terms to the left:

1.1x+1.2x-5.4-(-10x)=0

Add all the numbers together, and all the variables

2.3x-(-10x)-5.4=0

Get rid of parentheses

2.3x+10x-5.4=0

Add all the numbers together, and all the variables

12.3x-5.4=0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

12.3x=5.4

x=5.4/12.3

x=3.8571428571429/8.7857142857143

Hope it helps!

Simplify the expression 9xy + 6xy − 2xy. What is the coefficient of the simplified expression?
Art [367]
Hi there!

To find our answer we need to collect the terms of the expression.

9xy + 6xy - 2xy = \\ 15xy - 2xy = \\ 13xy

The coefficient (which is the number just before the variable) of the simplified expression is 13.

Arrange the following polynomial into descending order for x, then interpret the degree of the 3rd term. 2xy4 + 2x2y − 3y2 + 10x
malfutka [58]
To arrange the given polynomial in descending order of x, we only look at the exponent of x in each term and then write it in decreasing order of the value. We do as follows:

2xy^4 + 2x^2y − 3y^2 + 10x^3<span>
10x^3 + 2x^2 + 2xy^4 - 3y^2

The degree of the third term would be 5. The degree of a term is the sum of the exponents of the variables involved in the term.
