Answer:

one pound of apple cost $2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount they both spent at the grocery store be y and x be the price of apples per pound.

Since Tara bought 5 pounds of apples, 5x = y (1) and Ashley bought 3 pounds of apples and $5 worth other groceries, 3x + 5 = y (2).

Equating both expressions, 5x = 3x + 5

collecting like terms,

5x - 3x = 5

2x = 5

dividing both sides by 2, we have

x = 5/2

x = 2.5

So one pound of apple cost $2.5

Answer:

1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can use the Pythagorean theorem. In fact the diagonal of a rectangle is an hypotenuse of a right triangle, while the length is a leg. The width is the other leg

width = √2^2 - (√3)^2 = √4 - 3 = √1 = 1 cm

Which of the following equations describe the line shown below? <br><br>Check all that apply.
WITCHER [35]
Here, first we need to calculate the slope of the line, 
Here, Coordinates = (-6, 2) (-1, -4)
m = y2 - y1 / x2-x1
m = 2 + 4 / -6 + 1
m = 6/-5
m = -6/5

Now, Take first coordinate: y - 2 = -6/5 (x + 6)
Second coordinate: y + 4 = -6/5 (x + 1)

In short, Your Answers would be Option C & D

Hope this helps!
