Perry and Alberto are selling fruit for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy small boxes of tangerines and large boxes of tangerines. Perry sold 7 small boxes of tangerines and 12 large
boxes of tangerines for a total of $283. Alberto sold 8 small boxes of tangerines and 6 large
boxes of tangerines for a total of $200. Find the cost each of one small box of tangerines and one
large box of tangerines.

Small box: $13; Large box: $16

Explanation:

Make two individual equations for Perry and Alberto. Perry's equation would be 7x+12y=283. Alberto's equation would be 8x+6y=200. The best way to find the variables is to change the equations into slope-intercept form. Perry's equation would change to y=-7/12x+283/12 and Albert's equation would change to y=-4/3x+100/3. You can try substituting and plugging -4/3x+100/3 into the other equation, so they equal each other. But, you can also just graph the equation into a graphing calculator or Desmos. When graphing it, the point of intersection should be (13,16), so the cost of a small box tangerines is $13 and a large box of tangerines is $16.

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5

a.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1 distribute 2 to every term in the parentheses

step 2 add 10 on both sides of the equal sign
