Answer:

£1.80 is the price per kilogram of the apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents the number of apples per kilogram  and y represents the number of pears per kilogram.

As per the statement:

Julie buys 2kg of apples and 7kg of pears £12.70.

⇒2x+7y = 12.70          ....[1]

It is also given that the pears cost £1.30 per kilogram

⇒y =£1.30

Substitute in [1] we have;

⇒2x+7 \cdot 1.30 = 12.70  

⇒2x+9.10= 12.70  

Subtract 9.10 from both sides we have;

⇒2x= 3.60  

Divide both sides we have;

x =£1.80

Therefore, £1.80 is the price per kilogram of the apples

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

I think the second option is the most appropriate option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mikhail believes he can use the multiplication expression \frac{1}{2} \times 6 to find the total number of  pound servings of rice he can make  from 6 pounds of rice.

Now, we have to select the statement from the four options that best explains why Mikhail is correct or incorrect.

I think the second option is the most appropriate option.

So, Mikhail is correct in using a multiplication expression because 1/2 is the number of servings per pound. (Answer)

vladimir2022 [97]
Given that the basket of watermelons sells for $9 before tax and the tax rate is 9%.

The tax on the basket of watermelons is given by

\frac{9\%}{100\%} \times\$9=0.09\times\$9 \\  \\ =\$0.81

Therefore, the total price Tiffany pays for the basket of watermelons is $9 + $0.81 = $9.81

Given the point (-3, 6) and a line y=2x-8, write an equation of a line through the point and parallel to the line.
ch4aika [34]

Answer: y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

The equation of the given line is

y = 2x - 8

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = 2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 3,-6) is 2

To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = 2, x = - 3 and

y = - 6 into y = mx + c. It becomes

- 6 = 2 × - 3 + c

- 6 = - 6 + c

c = - 6 + 6 = 0

The equation becomes

y = 2x
