Answer: 5 \dfrac{13}{20}\ \text{miles}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

George walks 3 \frac{1}{4} before taking break

then he walks additional 2 \frac{2}{5} miles

total distance walked

\Rightarrow 3 \frac{1}{4}+2 \frac{2}{5}=\frac{12+1}{4}+\frac{10+2}{5}\\\Rightarrow \frac{13}{4}+\frac{12}{5}=\frac{13\times 5+12\times 4}{20}\\\Rightarrow \frac{113}{20}=5 \frac{13}{20}\ \text{miles}

The coordinates of A and B are (3k, 8) and (k, -3) respectively. Given that the gradient of the line segment AB is 3, find the v
Vladimir [108]

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient = slope or several other words.

it describes how strongly a line (or tangent to a bent curve) is going up or down or ... if it is changing at all.

it is represented by the ratio

(y coordinate change / x coordinate change)

when going from one point on the line to another.

in our case, when going from A to B we have

x changes by -2k (from 3k to k).

y changes by -11 (from 8 to -3).

so, the gradient or slope is

-11/-2k = 3

11/2k = 3

11 = 3×2k = 6k

k = 11/6

A = (33/6, 8) = (11/2, 8)

B = (11/6, -3)

Two kilos of taronges and three kilos of mandarins cost 11.50 euros. Three kilos of taronges and two of mandarins cost 11 euros.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Hence the pricing for each product will be taronges with 2 euros and mandarins with 2.5 euros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2 kg of taronges and 3 kg mandarins cost 11.5 euros

3kg taronges and 2 kg mandarins cost 11 euros

To Find:

Price for each product

Solution:

<em>Consider </em>

<em>Taronges =x euros</em>

<em>Mandarins=y euros</em>

So by given condition,

2x+3y=11.5  ....................equation(1)

and 3x+2y=11 ..............equation (2)

So , using substitution method,

3x=11-2y

x=11-2y/3 .......equation (3)

Using above value in equation(1) we get ,

2(11-2y)/3+3y=11.5

y=(11.5*3-22)/5)

y=2.5 euros

Using above value in equation(3)  we get ,

x=(11-2y)/3

x=(11-2*2.5)/3

x=(11-5)/3

x=2 euros
