The number of calories in a banana is fifteen less than twice the number of calories in an apple of the same weight. Together they have a total of 141 calories. How many calories does each piece of fruit have?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let calories present in apple = x

Then as per the question, calories present in banana= 2x-15

Total calories = 141

x+2x-15=141

3x= 141+15

3x= 156

x= 52

Calories present in apple = 52 calories

Calories present in banana = 2(52)-15

= 104-15= 89

step-by-step explanation:

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
