Answer:

Number of pineapples = 10

Number of pears = 10 + 9 = 19

Number of kiwis = 10 - 2 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Money = $ 13.5

Cost of a pear = $ 0.5

Cost of a pineapple = $ 1.5

Cost of a kiwi = $ 0.3

let the number of pineapple = p  

Number of pears = p + 9

Number of kiwis = p - 2

Cost is

0.5 (p + 9) + 0.15 p + 0.3 (p - 2) = 13.5

0.5 p + 4.5 + 0.15 p + 0.3 p - 0.6 = 13.5  

0.95 p = 9.6

p = 10

So, number of pineapples = 10

Number of pears = 10 + 9 = 19

Number of kiwis = 10 - 2 = 8

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of cars to trucks to motorcycles is $4:3:2.

If there are $42$ cars and trucks total,

To get how many motorcycles are there

Sum up the ratio of cars and trucks 4:3= 4+3 = 7

Sum up the ratio of cars and trucks and motorcycles

4+3+2 =9

Let the total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles be represented as A

The total number of cars and trucks in the question is 42

(7/9) x A = 42

7A/9 = 42

cross multiply

7A = 42×9 = 378

A= 378/7 = 54

The total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles is 54

To get the number of motorcycles can be calculated through

a. The total number of cars and trucks and motorcycles subtracted by the number of cars and trucks = 54-42=12 or use the ratio which is

2/9 × 54 = 2×6=12

Point m is the midpoint of ab¯¯¯¯¯ . am=3x+3, and ab=8x−6. what is the length of am¯¯¯¯¯¯ ?
LuckyWell [14K]
As given m is a midpoint of ab. So am is half of ab.

So we can write

am =  \frac{ab}{2}

As given am = 3x+3 , ab = 8x - 6.

So 3x+3 = \frac{8x - 6}{2}

3x+3 =  \frac{2(4x - 3)}{2}

3x+3 = 4x - 3

3+3 = 4x - 3x


6 = x

So x = 6.

So length of am = 3x+3 = 3*6 + 3 = 21
