Tanner is picking three varieties of apples at an orchard: Gala, Fuji, and Jazz. Each type of apple has a different cost per pou

nd. He knows that 1 pound of each apple variety would cost a total of $5.16, and that the cost per pound of Jazz apples is the same as the combined cost per pound of the Gala and Fuji apples. Tanner picks 12 pounds of apples, including 3 pounds of Gala and 5 pounds of Fuji, for a total cost of $21.24.
If g represents the cost per pound of Gala apples, f the cost per pound of Fuji apples, and j the cost per pound of Jazz apples, which system of equations represents this situation?

Answer:

2g + 2f = 5.16

7g + 9f = 21.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Gala = g ; Fuji = f ; jazz = j

g + f + j = 5.16 - - - (1)

j = g + f - - - (2)

From (1):

g + f + g + f = 5.16

2g + 2f = 5.16 - - - (3)

Total pound picked by Tanner = 12

3 Pounds of g ; 5 pounds of f

j = 12 - (5 +3) = 4 pounds

3g + 5f + 4j = 21.24 - - - (4)

3g + 5f + 4(g + f) = 21.24

3g + 5f + 4g + 4f = 21.24

7g + 9f = 21.24 - - - - - (5)

Marco is making three tiles pictures. he uses 310 green tiles to make each picture. he uses 50 fewer red tiles than green tiles
Anettt [7]
Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to first find the amount of red tiles he used by subtracting 50 from 310, and then finding the sum of the two numbers. 

310 - 50 = 260

Now, we know that there are 260 red tiles.

3 * 310 = 930
3 * 260 = 780

930 + 780 = 1710

So, the answer is 1710 tiles total. 

Hope this helps!

Svetach [21]
If Quincy finds 120 shells in 4 days, we can use the equation 4x = 120 to find how many shells she found each day. 4x = 120 If we divide both sides by four we get x = 30 So Quincy found 30 shells each day.
