Let, x = The cost of an apple
y = The cost of a peach
6x + 9y = 7.86 - - - - - - - - 1
4x + 5y = 4.82 - - - - - - - - 2
From equation 2,
4x =4.82 - 5y
x= (4.82 - 5y) ÷ 4 - - - - - - - 3
Substitute 3 into 1,
6x + 9y = 7.86
6 [(4.82 - 5y) ÷ 4] + 9y = 7.86
(28.92 - 30 y) ÷4 + 9y = 7.86
28.92 - 30y + 36y = 31.44
6y=2.52
y= 0.42
Substitute y = 0.42 into 2
4x + 5y= 4.82
4x + 5 (0.42) = 4.82
4x + 2.1 = 4.82
4x= 2.72
x= 0.68.
Thus, an apple costs $ 0.68 and a peach costs $ 0.42.
The answer is the third one (C?) because if you started at 0, you are going below it since you are losing yards, causing you to have less and less yards. Adding two negatives gives you a lesser amount.
Answer:
x > -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the inequality using the distributive property (multiply the term outside the bracket with each number inside the bracket). Then, isolate 'x' by performing the reverse operations for every number that's on the same side as 'x'. (Reverse operations 'cancel out' a number.)
18 < -3(4x - 2) Expand this to simplify
18 < (-3)(4x) - (-3)(2) Multiply -3 with 4x and -2
18 < -12x + 6 Start isolating 'x'
18 - 6 < -12x + 6 - 6 Subtract 6 from both sides
18 - 6 < -12x '+ 6' is cancelled out on the right side
12 < -12x Subtracted 6 from 18 on the left side
12/-12 < -12x/-12 Divide both sides by -12
12/-12 < x 'x' is isolated. Simplify left side
-1 < x Answer
x > -1 Standard formatting puts variable on the left side
Answer:
15/17
Step-by-step explanation:
You can calculate cosine by doing adjacent / hypotenuse so cos x° = 15/17.
You must do work presented inside parentheses first. Thus, do this first: (-5-7).
