Answer:

Sabrina bought 3 pounds of bananas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are:

a + b = 8       Eqn 1

0.95a + 1.10b = 8.05    Eqn 2

As we have to find the number of pounds of bananas bought, we will eliminate the variable a from the equation.

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 0.95

0.95(a+b=8)

0.95a+0.95b=7.60     Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(0.95a+1.10b)-(0.95a+0.95b)=8.05-7.60

0.95a+1.10b-0.95a-0.95b=0.45

0.15b = 0.45

Dividing both sides by 0.15

\frac{0.15b}{0.15}=\frac{0.45}{0.15}\\b = 3

Hence,

Sabrina bought 3 pounds of bananas.

please help: What is the equation of a line parallel to -5x + y= 2 that passes through the point with coordinates (-2, 1)?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

  • y = 5x + 11 or -5x + y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given line:</u>

  • -5x + y = 2

<u>In slope-intercept form:</u>

  • y = 5x + 2

<u>The parallel line has the same slope and will look as:</u>

  • y = 5x + b

<u>This line passes through the point (-2, 1), substitute:</u>

  • 1 = 5*(-2) + b
  • b = 1 + 10
  • b = 11

<u>So the line is:</u>

  • y = 5x + 11

or

  • -5x + y = 11
