Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line can be calculated with the formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
In this case we have:
(-4-(2))/(7-5)
(-6)/(2)
-3
Let me know if this helps!
X+y+z=92
y=3x
z=2x-10
subsitute
x+3x+2x-10=92
6x-10=92
add 10 to both sdies
6x=102
divide by 6
x=17
subsitute
y=3x
y=3(17)
y=51
z=2x-10
z=2(17)-10
z=34-10
z=24
x=17
y=51
z=24
the numbers are 17,51,24

Answer:
- 6 bunches of bananas
- 7 pounds of apples
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to assume that a "piece of fruit" is either a bunch of bananas or a pound of apples. Without that assumption, there is insufficient information to work the problem.
Let B represent the number of bunches of bananas. Then 13-B is the number of pounds of apples. The total cost is ...
6B +8(13 -B) = 92
-2B + 104 = 92 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
B = -12/-2 = 6 . . . . . . subtract 104, then divide by the coefficient of B
13-B = 7 . . . . . . . . . . . the number of pounds of apples
The customer bought 6 bunches of bananas and 7 pounds of apples.
_____
<em>Comment on the solution</em>
You will note that finding the value of the variable involved arithmetic with negative numbers. If you want the numbers to stay positive, then you can choose the variable to represent <em>the most expensive</em> of the items: the number of pounds of apples.
