Answer:

a = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

2(a-7)=a+4

Distribute 2 into left side: 2a -14 = a + 4

subtract a from both sides  2a-a-14 = a+4-a

Simplify: a  - 14 = 4

Add 14 to both sides: a - 14 + 14 = 4 +14

Simplify:   a = 18

If wanted, plug a into original to double check work:

plug in: 2 (18-7) = 18+4

do parenthesis first: 2 (11) = 18+4

do multiplication : 22 = 18+4

additions: 22 =22

a = 18 is correct.

2. John and Jen went to the farmers market to buy fruit. John bought 3 boxes of oranges and 9 boxes of cherries for $78. Jen bou
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Let the cost of orange be X and cost of cherry be y

3x + 9y = 78

8x + 4y = 58

Solving equation using elimination method

multiplying eq 1 with 8 and eq 2 with 3

8(3x + 9y ) = 78(8)

3( 8x + 4y) = 3(58)

24x + 72 y = 624

24x + 12y = 174

subtracting,

60 y = 450

y = 7.5

3x + 9(7.5) = 78

3x + 67.5 = 78

3x = 78 - 67.5

3x = 10.5

x = 3.5

<h2>Box of orange = $3.5 </h2><h2>Box of cherry = $7.5</h2>
