Nolan and his children bought fruits (Apples and bananas) worth $8.
Cost of each apple and bananas are $2 and $0.40 respectively.
Let the number of bananas he bought = y
And the number of apples = x
Therefore, cost of the apples =$2x
And the cost of bananas = $0.40y
Total cost of 'x' apples and 'y' bananas = $(2x + 0.40y)
Equation representing the total cost of fruits will be,
(2x + 0.40y) = 8
10(2x + 0.40y) = 10(8)
20x + 4y = 80
5x + y = 20 --------(1)
If he bought 5 times as many bananas as apples,
y = 5x ------(2)
Substitute the value of y from equation (2) to equation (1),
5x + 5x = 20
10x = 20
x = 2
Substitute the value of 'x' in equation (2)
y = 5(2)
y = 10
Therefore, Nolan bought 2 apples and 10 bananas.

Alright, so we know that there are 7 days a week with 24 hours per day.
24x7= 168 hours a week.
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.
Let's take the 40% that is Sleep and use it in the percentage formula with the 168 hours.
40%x168= roughly 67 hours.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
39
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you want to find the variable x all you have to do is simple subtraction.
The two numbers (61 and 22). Subtract those numbers and you get 39. Now it wants you to round to the jearest hundredth but there is no hundreds place so we can round to the nearest tenth. Which would be 30! Hope it helped... :)!
