Nancy bought 5 1/2 pounds of apples and oranges. If she bought 1 2/3 pounds of apples, which of the following equations could be used to find the amount of oranges she bought? a)5 1/2+p= 1 2/3
b)5 1/2+ 1 2/3= p
c)-5 1/2 + p= 1 2/3
d)5 1/2 - p= 1 2/3

5 1/2-p=1 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

let p represent the weight of the oranges!

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)

b. 18

step-by-step explanation:

so the equation for this is:

ab^2=ac⋅ad

ab being the top length of 6 and ac being the length of 2 and ad being the length of x. let's plug into the equation:

6^2 = 2x

now lets just solve for x:

36 = 2x

18 = x

i hope that !
