Answer:
- one orange costs $0.35 and one grapefruit costs $0.45
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>let grapefruits be g , let oranges be o</em>
so first equation:
→2g + 3o = $1.95
→g = ($1.95 - 3o)/2
so second equation:
→ 3g + 2o = $2.05
→ g = ($2.05 - 2o)/3
Solving simultaneously:
→ ($2.05 - 2o)/3 = ($1.95 - 3o)/2
→ 2($2.05 - 2o) = 3($1.95 - 3o)
→ 4.1 - 4o = 5.85 - 9o
→ - 4o + 9o = 5.85 - 4.1
→ 5o = 1.75
→ o = $0.35
Therefore one orange costs $0.35
Then one grapefruit costs g → ($1.95 - 3o)/2
→ g = ($1.95 - 3(0.35))/2
→ g = 0.45
Therefore one grapefruit costs $0.45
Answer: 5 Erasers
Step-by-step explanation: It's quite simple, really. You divide 20 by 4, (the number of pencils and the ratio number) and then you multiply whatever the quotient was by the ratio number for erasers.
Answer:
i dont know im wondering to o-o
Step-by-step explanation:
- 6/2c is the correct solution
collect like terms : 3cx - cx = 2cx
hence 2cx = - 6
dividing both sides by 2c gives x = - 6/2c
