The odd number is 17 because it cannot be evenly divided by 2
Answer:
1. x = 8
2. y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Plug the function
5x + 20(0.50) = 50
= 5x + 10 = 50
Subtract 10 from both side
= 5x = 40
Divide 5 on both sides
= x = 8
2. Plug in the function
5(8) + 20y = 50
= 40 + 20y = 50
Subtract 40 on both sides
= 20y = 10
Divide 20 both sides
= y = 10/20 | 1/2

Answer:
Apples = 24
Pears = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let u be the unit of fruit in the basket,
number of apples: 
number of pears: 
now to find u, we equate the two equations.

Now simplify.



Now we can find the original number of apples and pears by substituting u.
so original number of apples = 
and original number of pears = 
Step-by-step explanation:
log <base a> b = x
means
a^x = b
So
3^2 = x^2+7x+21
x^2 + 7x + 21 - 9 = 0
x^2 + 7x + 12 = 0
(x+3)(x+4)
x = -3 or -4
