basket. How many apples are in the basket?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The given ratio specifies the number of apples to be found in the basket

for a given number of oranges.

Correct response:

The number of apples in the basket are 6 apples

Methods of calculation

The given ratio of apples to oranges in the basket of fruits = 2:7

The number of oranges = 21 oranges

Required:

The number of apples in the basket.

Solution:

The given ratio can be expressed as follows;

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{Number \ of \ apples}{Number \ of \ oranges}} = \dfrac{2}{7} [/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\dfrac{Number \ of \ apples}{21} = \dfrac{2}{7} [/tex]

7 × (Number of apples) = 2 × 21

[tex]Number \ of \ apples = \dfrac{2 \times 21}{7} = 6[/tex]

The number of apples in the basket = 6 apples

Answer:

Answer=

x=(-2),y=(-4)

and in components form,

(-2,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

equation1 (-2x+2y=-4)

equation2 (3x+3y=-18)

(times equation 1 by 3 and times equation 2 by 2, to make the y values equal to each other)

E1 (-6x+6y=-12)

E2 (6x+6y=-36)

(subtract both equations from each other)

-6x+6y=-12

-

6x+6y=-36

=(-12x=24)

so, x=24÷-12=-2

(then we sub the value of x into one of the equations- the new one or the old one)

3x+3y=-18

(3×-2)+3y=-18

3y=-18+6=-12

y=-12÷3=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

10 students would pay for lunch with $30.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is how I know $30 is the correct answer:

1. To figure out how much money it would cost for 1 student I would take the $12 the four students paid for lunch and divide it by 4 so we would know the exact cost for one students lunch (12/4=3 or $3)

2. Now we know $3 is the cost for 1 student. We can now multiply the $3 by 10 (students) so we can get the cost for 10 lunches (3(10)=30 or $30)

3. We got our final answer of $30=10 students lunches.

B. 2.7 pounds Brand A. 2.3 pounds Brand B
C. 4.2 pounds Brand A. 0.8 pounds Brand B
D. 2.3 pounds Brand A. 2.7 pounds Brand B

Answers

Answer:

C. 4.2 pounds Brand A. 0.8 pounds Brand B

Step-by-step explanation:

How much of each brand of coffee is needed to make 5 pounds that will cost

$6.75/pound?

Let the number of pounds for Brand A = x

Let the number of pounds for Brand B = y

Brand A coffee sells for $7/pound, while Brand B sells for $5.40/pound.

$7 × x + $5.40 × y = $6.75 × 5

7x + 5.40y = 33.75.......Equation 1

x + y = 5 .......Equation 2

x = 5 - y

7(5 - y)+ 5.40y = 33.75

35 - 7y + 5.40y = 33.75

35 - 33.75 = 7y - 5.40y

= 1.25 = 1.6y

y = 1.25/1.6

y = 0.78125 pounds.

Approximately to the nearest whole number, Brand B = 0.8 pounds.

x = 5 - y

x = 5 - 0.8 pounds

x = 4.2 pounds

Brand A = 4.2 pounds
