Apples: $(2x) per pound

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ludmilka [50]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Shopper spend $3 on Apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x

Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5)

Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)

A shopper purchases one pound each of  apples, grapes, and oranges and spends  $10.50.

It can be written as: 2x+6x-5+x+2=10.50

We need to find how much the shopper spend on each fruit.

First we need to find value of x by solving equation

2x+6x-5+x+2=10.50

Solving:

2x+6x+x+2-5=10.50\\9x-3=10.50\\9x=10.50+3\\9x=13.5\\x=\frac{13.5}{9}\\x=1.5

The value of x is: x=1.5

Now finding cost of one pound each fruit by putting x=1.5

Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x = 2(1.5) = $3

Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5) = (6(1.5)-5)= $4

Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)=(1.5+2)=$3.5

So,

Cost of one pound of Apple  = $3

Cost of one pound of Grapes = $4

Cost of one pound of Oranges = $3.5

So, shopper spend $3 on apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges

What is the approximate area of the pizza
Dovator [93]
If you have several different sized pizzas, you can compare their areas. So the area of a pizza is the length of the crust (circumference) divided by two times the distance from the edge to the middle (radius). Mathematicians use a special number called pi to calculate the circumference of a circle.

4. (10 points) From the given triangle:
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

sinθ =  y/r        sinθ = \frac{-6}{10} = \frac{-3}{5}

cosθ =  x/r       cosθ = \frac{8}{10} = \frac{4}{5}

tanθ =  y/x       tanθ =  \frac{-6}{8} =\frac{-3}{4}

cscθ =  r/y       cscθ = \frac{-5}{3}

secθ =  r/x       secθ =  \frac{5}{4}

cotθ = x/y       cotθ = \frac{4}{3}

explanation:

r = \sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-6)^{2}  }

r = 10

x = 8

y = -6

r = \sqrt{(4)^{2}+(3)^{2}  }

r = 5

x = 4

y = 3
