Ryan bought 6 apples and 9 peaches for a total of $7.86. Madi bought 4 apples and 5 peaches for $4.82. How much are apples and peaches? Write and solve a system of equations to answer the question. show how you got it

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Let, x = The cost of an apple
y = The cost of a peach

6x + 9y = 7.86 - - - - - - - - 1
4x + 5y = 4.82 - - - - - - - - 2

From equation 2,
4x =4.82 - 5y
x= (4.82 - 5y) ÷ 4 - - - - - - - 3

Substitute 3 into 1,
6x + 9y = 7.86
6 [(4.82 - 5y) ÷ 4] + 9y = 7.86
(28.92 - 30 y) ÷4 + 9y = 7.86
28.92 - 30y + 36y = 31.44
6y=2.52
y= 0.42

Substitute y = 0.42 into 2
4x + 5y= 4.82
4x + 5 (0.42) = 4.82
4x + 2.1 = 4.82
4x= 2.72
x= 0.68.

Thus, an apple costs $ 0.68 and a peach costs $ 0.42.

Answers

2 1/3 + 1 2/3 = 3 3/3

2 1/3 + 1 2/3 = 4
2 + 1 = 3; 1/3 + 2/3 = 1
3 + 1 = 4

3 3/3 = 4
3 = 3; 3/3 = 1
3 + 1 = 4

Now, let's come up with a fraction that is equal to 4.

2 6/3

This answer works because we already have 2 as an integer, and 6/3 is 2.
2 + 2 = 4

Hope this helps!

Which products result in a difference of squares or a perfect square trinomial? Check all that apply. (5x + 3)(5x – 3) (7x + 4)(7x + 4) (2x + 1)(x + 2) (4x – 6)(x + 8) (x – 9)(x – 9) (–3x – 6)(–3x + 6)

Answers

In this question, we have to find all the products which result in a difference of perfect squares .

The formula of the difference between squares is

$(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2$

In the first option, we have

$(5x+3)(5x-3)$

Which is of the form of difference of two squares. And similarly , the last option is also in the form of difference of two squares .

And for perfect squares, we have same factor twice in b and e, so for that b and e are the correct options .

So out of the given options, correct options are a,b,e and f .

Answers

Answer:

10 are 3/4 hr

4 are 1/2 hr

2 are 1/4 hr

Step-by-step explanation: we took 3/4 and multiplied x 10/1 = 30/4

we multiplied 1/2 x 4/1 =4/2 and we multiplied 1/4 x 2/1= 2/4

I converted 4/2 x 2/2 to give it the same common denominator as the other fractions 4/2 x 2/2=8/4

So 8/4 +30/4+2/4 = 40/4 divide this by 16 ( total number of cars) But somehow I am not getting the answer of 5/8, 9/16, 3/4 or 1/2 that are to choose from for the answer. 40/4 = 10 and 10/16 is simplified by dividing by 2/2 = 5/8

What percent of 1270 is 375?

Answers

$\begin{array}{ccc}1270&-&100\%\n\n375&-&p\%\end{array}\n\ncross\ multiply\n\n1270\cdot p=375\cdot100\ \ \ /:1270\n\np=(37500)/(1270)\n\np=29(67)/(127)\n\nAnswer:29(67)/(127)\%\approx29.53\%$

to find percentage, we multiply the ratio by 100

= 375/1270 x 100
= 0.29527 x 100
= 29.527 %
Thus percent will be 29.527%
