We can create equations to solve this.
2.50p + 1.50m = 29.50
p + m = 15
Solve for a variable in the 2nd equation and use the substitution method to solve.
p + m = 15
Subtract p to both sides:
m = -p + 15
Plug in -p + 15 for m in the first equation.
2.50p + 1.50(-p + 15) = 29.50
Distribute:
2.50p - 1.50p + 22.50 = 29.50
Combine like terms:
p + 22.50 = 29.50
Subtract 22.50 to both sides:
p = 7
Now plug this into any of the two equations and solve for the other variable.
p + m = 15
7 + m = 15
Subtract 7 to both sides:
m = 8
So he purchased 7 pineapples and 8 mangos.
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
If you have something that says it is the f(x) or just f(something) then that is just telling you what the x equals. In this case, x=4 so you plug that into the equation.
This gives you f(4)=4(4)+7. From here, you will use the order of operations to solve.
f(4)=4*4+7
f(4)=16+7
f(4)=23
Answer:
its 90
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Mikey had 5 cookies. His friend took 2 with him when he left. How many cookies does Mikey have left?
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, 5 would be the starting amount.
-2 would be the amount taken away.
3 would be our final answer.
4/5=0.8
0.35=7/20
3/8=0.375
0.775=31/40
