The key word ''in all'' means total so this calls for addition so we need to add all fractions first to get our answer.

First we need to add all whole numbers
next we need to find the LCD of all fractions which is 4
next we change the denominators into the LCD (4)
next we join them all together so now it will be 3 + 2 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 2 over 4
since 2 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 2 equals 11 we simplify it to 3 + 11/4
now we make 11/4 to a mixed fraction which is 2 3/4
now we add 3 + 2 to make 5 and keep the fraction

Answer: Joanna bought 5 3/4 pounds of fruit in all.

Solve using substitution method x-y=11;3x+10y=-6<br> explain please
Tatiana [17]
Ok so for starters you want to choose an equation and solve for a variable.
So, I am going to choose x from the first equation.
Add y to both sides and you get x=11+y
Next, substitute 11+y for x in the other equation so you get...
2(11+y) +10y=-6
Next distribute the 2 throug the 11 and the y
22+2y+10y=-6
12y=-28
y=-28/12
reduce this fraction to make this easier.
y=-7/3
Now plug in why to either of the equations to find x
x-(-7/3)=11
x+7/3=11
x=11-(7/3)
x=(33/3)-(7/3)
x=26/3
so x = 26/3 and y = -7/3
you can also check to see if this is correct by substituting each of these values into the equations.
