Question

Answer 1

8p

Answer 2

It doesn't matter if you have a card or if you put it in your pocket.

Answer 3

do your own homework we wont be around when you take your test sorry !!

Answer 4

b=banana

o=orange

2b + 2o = 34p

2b + 1o = 25p

1o = 34-25

1o = 9

2o= 18

2b + 18 = 34

34-18=16

2b=16

b=8

Answer 5

Do your own homework, please.

Answer 6

8p.

2 bans + 2 orans = 34p

2 bans + 1 oran = 25p

                1 oran = 34 - 25p = 9p

2 bans + 1 oran - 9p = 2 bans = 25 - 9p = 16p

2 bans = 16p = 2 x (1 ban = 8p)

Answer 7

let the bananas be "x" n oranges be "y"

2x+2y=34p

therefore 2(x+y)=34p

x+y=34p/2

x+y=17p

y=17p-x

substituting the above equatin for y in below equation

2x+1y=25p

2x+1*(17p-x)=25p

2x+17p-x=25p

2x-x=25p-17p

x=8p

therefore each banana costs 8p
