Answer:
2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
To write an equation to find the value for c, we need to declare what c is first.
c = price of fruit
2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75
Now we multiplied c to 2.45 and 1.65 and added them together, because whatever the value of c is will give us the equivalence of the sum of 4.12 + 0.75.
Now to check if the equation is right, let's solve for c.
2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75
4.1c = 4.87
Now to get the value of c, we divide both sides of the equation by 4.1.
c = 1.19
Now let's substitute the value of c in the equation to see if we got it right.
2.45(1.19) + 1.65(1.19) = 4.12 + 0.75
2.92 + 1.96 = 4.87
4.87 = 4.87
Therefore concluding that the value of c is 1.19.

Answer:
The Point C shows the location of 5-2i in the complex plane: 5 points to the right of the origin and 2 points down from the origin.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the complex number 5-2i and we have to show the location of the point that represents that number in the complex plane
In the complex plane the real numbers are located in the horizontal axis, increasing to the right. The positives real numbers are at the right of the origin and the negatives to the left.
The complex numbers are located in the vertical axis, with the positives over the origin and the negatives below the origin.
This complex number 5-2i is the sum of a real part (5) and a imaginary part (-2i), so the point will be 5 units rigth on the horizontal axis (for the real part) and 2 units down in the vertical axis (for the imaginary part).
