Hello!
Let's put this into a system of equations and have a represent the apples and o represent the oranges.
o=2a+2
0.5o-0.5a=4
Since we can already so what o equals (2a+2) we will substitute it into the second equation and solve for a.
0.5(2a+2)-0.5a=4
1a+1-0.5a=4
1.5a+1=4
1.5a=3
a=2
Now that we know the value of a will put a into the first equation to find o.
o=2(2)+2
o=4+2
o=6
There were 6 oranges and 2 apples.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
<em>I earned $856 on the first day</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call
x = earning on the second day
2x = earnings on the first day
3x = earnings on the third day
The total earnings are $2568, thus
x + 2x + 3x = 2568
Simplifying:
6x = 2568
Dividing by 6:
x = 2568/6
x = 428
I earned $428 on the second day.
2x = 2*$428 = $856
I earned $856 on the first day
4 1/2 or 4.5 (which ever you prefer)
Just multiply 6 by 3/4 for the answer.
P(1≤x≤3) defined the probability that the result is between 1 and 3, included. You can answer this question in two ways:
1. Sum the probabilities of good events:
From the graph, we have
So,
2. Use complementary probabilities
Asking that the result is 1, 2 or 3 is the same as asking that the result is not 4. The probability that the result is 4 is 0.16, so the probability that the result is not 4 will be
The result is obviously the same.
6x - 11 - 2x = -7
4x - 11 - = -7
4x = 11
X= 2
12- 11 -4 -3y = -7
-3 -3y = -7
-3y = -4
Y = -1
It should be 2,-1
