The answer is b)04 I did this on my test and got it correct
38(m - 29) = 434...distribute thru the parenthesis
38m - 1102 = 434...add 1102 to both sides
38m = 434 + 1102
38m = 1536....divide both sides by 38
m = 1536/38
m = 768/19 or 40 8/19

Answer:
x = 1 and y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let apples are represented by x
and let oranges are represented by y
You purchase 5 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of oranges for $9. This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 2y = 9
Your friend purchases 5 pounds of apples and 6 pounds of oranges for $17.
This line in equation format can be written as:
5x + 6y = 17
Now we have two equations:
5x + 2y = 9 -> eq (i)
5x + 6y = 17 -> eq(ii)
We can solve these equations to find the value of x and y.
Subtracting eq(i) from eq(ii)
5x + 6y = 17
5x + 2y = 9
- - -
_________
0+4y= 8
=> 4y = 8
y= 8/4
y = 2
Now, putting value of y in eq (i)
5x + 2y = 9
5x +2(2) = 9
5x +4 = 9
5x = 9-4
5x = 5
x = 1
so, x = 1 and y = 2
Please specify what your asking, and I'd be glad to help!
