Fred is making a fruit salad. The ratio of cups of peaches to cups of cherries is 2 to 3.How many cups of peaches will Fred need to make 60 cups of fruit salad?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> cups of peaches

y ----> cups of cherries

we know that

----> equation A

we know that

To make 5 cups of fruit salad (2+3), we need 2 cups of peaches

so

using proportion

answer: idk

step-by-step explanation:

tickets for the harlem globetrotters

show at michigan state university in

2010 cost $16, $23, or, for vip seats, $40.

total revenue = 16x + 23y + 40z

if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, sales of all three kinds of tickets would

total $46,575.

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575, how many of each kind of ticket would

have been sold?

solve for x, y and z

x − 9z = 0

x − y − z = 55

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575

x = 1170

y = 985

z = 130
