The answer is this: $3.60
4 x 10 = 40 - 0.4 = 3.6
Let p = weight of papaya and g = weight of grapes.
Then (3/4)g = (3/5)p. Since the weight of grapes is x + 28,
(3/4)(x + 28) = (3/5)p. We must solve for x. To do this, mult. both sides by (5/3):
(5/3)(3/4)(x+28) = (5/3)(3/5)p
Then p = (15/9)(x+28), or (after reduction), p = (5/3)(x+28).
Intersection point or point of intersection
Yes.
When you use distributive property in first expression you’ll get 4x +8y. The second expression just rearranged those two terms.
