Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume the cost of 1 apple = x dollars
Let us also assume the cost of 1 pear = y dollars
Then we can form two equations from the details given in the question. Based on those details the required answer to the question can be easily deduced.
3x + 8y = 14.50
And
6x + 4y = 14
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2 we get
3x + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 3x
y = (7 - 3x)/2
Putting the value of y from the second equation in the first equation we get
3x + 8y = 14.50
3x + 8[(7 - 3x)/2] = 14.50
3x + 4 (7 - 3x) = 14.50
3x + 28 - 12x = 14.50
- 9x = 14.50 - 28
- 9x = - 13.5
9x = 13.5
x = 13.5/9
= 1.5
Putting the value of x in the second equation we get
6x + 4y = 14
(6 * 1.5) + 4y = 14
9 + 4y = 14
4y = 14 - 9
4y = 5
y = 5/4
= 1.25
So we can find from the above deduction that the cost of 1 apple is 1.5 dollars and the cost of 1 pear is 1.25 dollars
Then
Cost of 2 apples = 2 * 1.5 dollars
= 3.0 dollars
So the cost of 2 apples is $3 and the cost of 1 pear is $1.25.
Numbers I think I'm not that smart
Total cards = 52
Total kings = 4
P(2 kings) = (4/52)(4/52) = 1/169
Answer : 1/169
(7t-2) - (-3t+1) = -3*(1-3t)
First distribute:
7t-2+3t-1 = -3+9t
Now get all the terms with 't' on the same side by subtracting/adding:
7t+3t-9t = -3+2+1
Combine the terms:
1t=0
t=0
Check:
Plug in 0 for t and see if both sides of the equation come out the same:
Does (7(0)-2) - (-3(0)+1) = -3(1-3(0)) ?
(-2) - (1) = -3(1) ?
-3 = -3 ?
Yes! It works, so t=0!
