Mom put plums and apples onto a plate. The ratio of the number of plums to the number of apples was 3:2. How many fruit did mom

Delvig [45]

Answer:

30 fruits

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> number of plums on the plate

y ----> number of apples on the plate

we know that

The ratio of the number of plums to the number of apples was 3:2

$\frac{x}{y} =\frac{3}{2}$

$x=1.5y$ ----> equation A

After Ed took 6 plums from the plate, the number of plums remaining on the plate became the same as the number of apples

$x-6=y$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$1.5y-6=y$

solve for y

$1.5y-y=6\\0.5y=6\\y=12$

Find the value of x

$x=1.5(12)=18$

therefore

Mon put on the table

$x+y=18+12=30\ fruits$

If c+1/d=5 , what is the value of 30d/2c+2

klemol [59]

Answer:

$d\in R,\hspace{5}d\neq 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve for any variable. From the first equation, let's solve for c :

$\frac{c+1}{d} =5\\\\c+1=5d\\\\c=5d-1$

Now, replace the value of c into the other equation:

$\frac{30d}{2c+2} \\\\\frac{30d}{2(5d-1)+2} \\$

Using distributive property

$\frac{30d}{10d-2+2} =\frac{30d}{10d} =3$

However, keep in mind that this is true for:

$d\in R,\hspace{5}d\neq 0$
