Answer:
- apple: £0.20
- banana: £0.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "a" and "b" represent the costs of one apple and one banana, respectively. Then the purchases can be written ...
4a +b = 1.40
7a +b = 2.00
Subtracting the first equation from the second gives ...
(7a +b) -(4a +b) = (2.00) -(1.40)
3a = 0.60 . . . . simplify
a = 0.20 . . . . . .divide by 3
Using this in the first equation, we have ...
4(0.20) +b = 1.40
b = 0.60 . . . . . subtract 0.80
The cost of an apple is £0.20; the cost of a banana is £0.60.
Answer: 1.07
Step-by-step explanation: multiply the percentage. for ex: 17.75 X .06 = 1.065
Your answer would be:
596.64 = 596.640
Reasoning= If you just take away the zero from 596.640 you would have the same answer as 596.64. Now if you add a zero to 596.64 you still would have the same answer, therefore they are equal.
Hope this helps! (:
Answer:
<h2>x = 21</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 1 + 5x = 7 + 15 + 7x <em>combine like terms</em>
(3x + 5x) + 1 = (7 + 15) + 7x
8x + 1 = 22 + 7x <em>subtract 1 from both sides</em>
8x = 21 + 7x <em>subtract 7x from both sides</em>
x = 21
