Answer:
8 fruits
Step-by-step explanation:
Todd and agnes are making desserts. todd buys
peaches and a carton of vanilla yogurt. agnes
buys apples and a jar of honey. they bought
the same number of pieces of fruit. is there a
situation in which they pay the same amount for
their purchases? explain.
apples
peaches=
$1.25 for peaches
$1.00 for apples
yogurt
honey=
$4 for yogurt
$6 for honey
Todd:
Peaches + yogurt
1.25x + 4
Agnes:
1.00x + 6
Where,
x = number of pieces of fruit
Equate the cost of Todd and Agnes
1.25x + 4 = 1.00x + 6
1.25x - 1.00x = 6 - 4
0.25x = 2
x = 2/0.25
= 8
x = 8 fruits
The situation in which they both pay the same amount for their purchases is when they buy 8 fruits each
