Answer:

the cost each of one cherry pie and one lemon meringue pie is 9 and $12 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the cost of one cherry pie and the lemon meringue pie is shown below:

Let us assume the cherry pie be x

And, the lemon meringue pie be y

So according to the question

x + 5y = $69

5x + 7y = $129

Now multiply by 5 in the equation 1

5x + 25y = $345

5x + 7y = $129

18y = $216

y = $12

And, x would be

x + 5($12) = $69

x = $9

Hence, the cost each of one cherry pie and one lemon meringue pie is 9 and $12 respectively

14a - (2a +9)=2/3 (12a-18)​
Dmitrij [34]

Answer: a=-0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

14a - (2a +9)=2/3 (12a-18)​

14a - 2a -9=2/3 * 6(2a-3)​

12a-9=2*6/3 (2a-3)​

12a-9=2*2(2a-3)​

12a-9=4(2a-3)​

12a-9=8a-12

4a-9=-12

4a=-3

a=-3/4

a=-0.75

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is expressed as

y = 1/(x - 2)

We will assume values for x and determine the corresponding values for y. Therefore,

When x = 0, y = 1/(0 - 2) = - 1/2

When x = 1, y = 1/(1 - 2) = - 1

When x = 2, y = 1/(2 - 2) = 0

When x = 3, y = 1/(3 - 2) = 1

When x = 4, y = 1/(4 - 2) = 1/2

To plot the graph, we would choose a suitable scale for the x and y axis of the graph.

Let 2 cm represent 1 unit on the vertical axis.

Let 2 cm represent 0.5 unit on the x axis.

The graph is shown in the attached photo
