Answer:
The two linear equation
x + y = 19.... Equation 1
0.55x + 0.75y = 12.65... Equation 2
Nedra purchased
9 Apples and 11 Oranges
Step-by-step explanation:
Nedra purchased apples and oranges at the grocery store. which two linear equations can be used to find the number of apples and oranges?
Let the number of apples be represented by x
The number of oranges by represented by y.
Hence,
Apples are $0.55 each and oranges are $0.75 each. If she spent a total of $12.65 for 19 pieces of fruit,
Hence:
x + y = 19..... Equation 1
x = 19 - y
$0.55 × x + $0.75 × y = $12.65
0.55x + 0.75y = 12.65.....Equation 2
Hence: we substitute 19 - y for x in Equation 2
0.55(19 - y) + 0.75y = 12.65
10.45 - 0.55y + 0.75y = 12.65
-0.55y+ 0.75y = 12.65 - 10.45
0.20y = 2.2
y = 2.2/0.20
y = 11 oranges
x = 19 - y
x = 19 - 11
x = 8 Apples
Answer: 
<u>Multiply</u>
60%×1200=720
Note: When finding the percent of a number always multiply the percent times the number.
Lateral Surface Area of a square pyramid (4 isosceles triangles): For the isosceles triangle Area = (1/2)Base x Height. Our base is side length a and for this calculation our height for the triangle is slant height s. With 4 sides we need to multiply by 4. (hope this will help)
