Answer:
- apple: £0.20
- banana: £0.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "a" and "b" represent the costs of one apple and one banana, respectively. Then the purchases can be written ...
4a +b = 1.40
7a +b = 2.00
Subtracting the first equation from the second gives ...
(7a +b) -(4a +b) = (2.00) -(1.40)
3a = 0.60 . . . . simplify
a = 0.20 . . . . . .divide by 3
Using this in the first equation, we have ...
4(0.20) +b = 1.40
b = 0.60 . . . . . subtract 0.80
The cost of an apple is £0.20; the cost of a banana is £0.60.
<span>Given:
family travelled 25 miles in 30 minutes or 50 miles /hr
current time 3.00 pm.
total distance=225 miles.
solution:
speed = distance * time
time = distance/spedd
= 225/50
time = 4.5 hours.
reaching time= 3 hours +4 hour 30 minutes= 7.30 pm</span>
Total owed to the business = $100,000
amount that could not be collected = $5000
Fraction of total not collected
Z = (X-Mean)/SD
<span>z1 = (165 - 150)/15 = +1 </span>
<span>z2 = (135 - 150)/15 = - 1 </span>
<span>According to the Empirical Rule 68-95-99.7 </span>
<span>Mean +/- 1SD covers 68% of the values </span>
<span>100% - 68% = 32% </span>
<span>The remaining 32% is equally distributed below z = - 1 and z = +1 </span>
<span>32%/2 = 16%
</span>
<span>Therefore,
</span>
<span>a) Number of men weighing more than 165 pounds = 16% of 1000 = 160 </span>
<span>b) Number of men weighing less than 135 pounds = 16% of 1000 = 160</span>
X-int:let y=0
3x-2(0)=18
3x=18
divide both sides by 3
therefore x=6
y-int:let x=0
3(0)-2y=18
-2y=18
we divide both side by -2
therefore y=-9
