4/3 = 1/x.....4 lbs potatoes to $3 = 1 lb of potatoes to $x
cross multiply
(4)(x) = (3)(1)
4x = 3
x = 3/4
x = 0.75....so 1 lb of potatoes cost 75 cents
(8,6)...this means 8 lbs of potatoes cost $6
Answer: 2.25 km

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Start box
180 = 89+42+x
180-89-42=x
49 = x
2nd box
180 = 84+58+x
180-84-58=x
38 = x
3rd box
180=74+2x
180-74=2x
106/2 = x
53 = x
4th box
180=102+2x
180-102=2x
78/2 = x
39 = x
4th box
180 = 73+81 +x
180-73-81=x
26 = x
5th box
180=2*54+x
180 - 2*54 = x
72 = x
6th box
180=62-2x
180-62=2x
118=2x
118/2=x
59 = x
7th box
180 = 2*68 + x
180-2*68=x
44 = x
Answer:
6 apples, 21 apples, 30 apples respectively
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us first start by writing <u>expressions</u> so that we can easily solve for the problems below.
Let us suppose Alice is x. In this case, Claire has 3 times Alice's apples, so 3x.
1. If Alice has 2 apples (x), then Claire has 3x
3*2=<u>6 apples</u>
Claire has 6 apples.
2. If Alice has 7 apples (x), then Claire has 3x
3*7=<u>21 apples</u>
Claire has 21 apples.
<u />
3. If Alice has 10 apples (x), then Claire has 3x
3*10=<u>30 apples</u>
Claire has 30 apples.
