We can create equations to solve this.
2.50p + 1.50m = 29.50
p + m = 15
Solve for a variable in the 2nd equation and use the substitution method to solve.
p + m = 15
Subtract p to both sides:
m = -p + 15
Plug in -p + 15 for m in the first equation.
2.50p + 1.50(-p + 15) = 29.50
Distribute:
2.50p - 1.50p + 22.50 = 29.50
Combine like terms:
p + 22.50 = 29.50
Subtract 22.50 to both sides:
p = 7
Now plug this into any of the two equations and solve for the other variable.
p + m = 15
7 + m = 15
Subtract 7 to both sides:
m = 8
So he purchased 7 pineapples and 8 mangos.
Answer:

Answer:
Step 4 is incorrect he did not divide correctly from step3 to step 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference of a circle is
C = 2 * pi *r
We know the circumference is 12 pi
12pi = 2 pi *r
Divide each side by 2 pi
12 pi/2pi = 2pi r/ 2pi
6 = r
From step 3 The student did not cancel the pi in the top and the bottom on the right hand side to isolate r
In step 4 he got 6 =pi r instead of pi
