Irene solved this problem.

tony bought 3 pounds of oranges. he paid $0.95 per pound. how much did tony pay for the oranges?

irene thought the answer was $2.85.

is irene's answer reasonable?

yes, irene's answer is reasonable.

no, irene's answer should be closer to $280.

no, irene's answer should be closer to $28.

no, irene's answer should be closer to $0.28.

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x .95 = 2.85

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2

answer:

given the linear inequality :

add 2y to both sides we get;

simplify:

add 12 to both sides of an equation;

simplify:

divide both sides by 2 we get;

or

the related equation for the inequality equation [1] is;

y-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the y-axis.

substitute x =0 in [2] to solve for y;

y = 6

x-intercepts defined as the graph crosses the x-axis.

substitute value y = 0 to solve for x;

subtract 6 from both sides we get

multiply both sides by 2 we get;

or

x = -12

now, plot these point (0, 6) and (-12, 0) on graph as shown below and shade the graph below the solid line.
