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

Point C is the midpoint of a segment AB . What are the coordinates of point B, if: A(–1, 3), C( 1, –1)
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

(3,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the  midpoint, add the  x coordinates together and divide by 2

The x coordinate is

(x1+x2)/2

We know one point and the midpoint

( -1+x)/2 = 1

Multiply by 2

-1 +x = 2

Add 1

x =2+1

x=3

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the  y coordinates together and divide by 2

The y coordinate is

(y1+y2)/2

We know one point and the midpoint

(3+y)/2 = -1

Multiply by 2

3+y = -2

Subtract 3

y = -2-3

y =-5

The other endpoint is (3,-5)
