The total cost of 5 apples and 2 pears is £1.76
Work out the cost of one apple and the cost of one pear.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

an apple costs 0.24 and a pear costs 0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

      3a + 4p = 1.84                                 3a + 4p = 1.84

     -5a + 2p = 1.76   m(-2)                 -10a - 4p = -3.52

        3a + 4p = 1.84

 +   -10a - 4p = -3.52

       -7a          = -1.68

           a         = -1.68/-7

           a        =  0.24

   

       3a + 4p = 1.84

       3(0.24) + 4p = 1.84

       0.72  + 4p = 1.84

                   4p = 1.84 - 0.72

                    4p = 1.12

                      p = 0.28

Answer 2

The cost of an apple is £0.24 and the cost of pear is £0.28

What is a system of equations?

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

Let a represent the cost of one apple and p represent the cost of one pear.

Then the system of equation will be;

     3a + 4p = 1.84                                

    -5a + 2p = 1.76   m(-2)                

-10a - 4p = -3.52

Solving both the equation;

-7a   = -1.68

a   = -1.68/-7

a   =  0.24

For solving p;

3a + 4p = 1.84

3(0.24) + 4p = 1.84

0.72  + 4p = 1.84

4p = 1.84 - 0.72

4p = 1.12

p = 0.28

Hence, the cost of an apple is £0.24 and the cost of pear is £0.28

Below is a recipe for chocolate chip cookies. The recipe makes 27 cookies. How many teaspoons of vanilla extract do you need to make 24 cookies? Round to the nearest hundredth if needed.

Answers

Answer: 1.78 teaspoons

Step-by-step explanation:

The recipe says: 27 cookies/2 teaspoons Vanilla extract. Let's abbreviation this conversion factor as (27/2)C/V, where C is cookie and V is 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. We have both 13.5C/V and 1V/13.5C as conversion factors. 13.5 cookies is equivalent to 1 teaspoon vanilla, or 1 teaspoon vanilla is equivalent to 13.5 cookies. We can multiply ofr divide either of these factors, since they are both equivalent to 1, and you can mukltiply or divide anything by 1 without changing it's accuracy. The atual numbers will change, but the units will also change, making it a valid result.

We want 24 cookies. Use one of the conversion factors to find the teaspoons vanilla extract required:

1) We can divide by (27C/2V)

24C/((27C/2V) = 1.78 teaspoons

or

2) we can multiply by (1V/13.5C)

24C*(1V/13.5C) = 1.78 teaspoons
