Let a be the number of apples\nLet (12 - a) be the number of oranges\n\nThen:\n25a + 18 (12 - a) = 251 cents\n\nNow multiply the 18 through the parentheses:\n25a + 216 - 18a = 251\n\nSubtract 216 from both sides:\n25a - 18a = 35\n\nSimplify:\n7a = 35\na = 35/7\na = 5\n\nOranges = 12 - a\n12 - 5 = 7\n\nSo Alice bought 5 apples and 7 oranges.\n\nAs a double-check:\n5 apples = 5 x 0.25 = $1.25\n7 apples = 7 x 0.18 = $1.26\nTotal = $2.51

In case you want more than just the answer so you can do similar problems on your next test:\n\nQ: What do have to find? \nA: The number of bottles of apple juice (call it A)\nand the number of bottles of orange juice (call it B).\n\nQ: What do you already know about A and B?\nA: You know that together A and B total 12 bottles.\n(A + B = 12)\n\nYou also that you paid $15 for the 12 bottles. You paid $1 for each bottle of apple juice (1xA) and you paid $1.50 for each bottle of orange juice (1.5B)\n\nSo $15 = $1xA + 1.5xB\n\nQ: What next?\n\nA: You have two equations with two unknowns:\n\nA + 1.5 B = 15\nA +     B = 12\n\nSubtract the left hand sides and the right hand sides to get\n      .5B = 3\n\nDivide both sides by .5 to get\n    B = 6\nso  A = 12-6 = 6\nCheck:\n$1x6 + $1.5x6 = $6 + $9 = $15

damn i got a million...\n\n*To prove to the possum it could actually be done!\n\n*There was a car coming.\n\n*The chicken was an illegal immigrant. He not only crossed the road, but he also crossed the border! There are over 12 million illegal chickens in this country. \n\n*There was free beer on the other side of the road.\n\n* We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road.  We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road or not.  The chicken is either with us or it is against us.  There is no middle ground here.\n\n*Out of custom and habit.\n\n*Because it could not stop for death.\n\n*I forget.\n\n*To prove it could never reach the other side.\n\n\nsooo yeah

i think it was 7 pairs. God probably told them to do this because in case they ran out of food, they would have a clean choice of animals to possibly eat

This is a title bestowed onto virgin Mary in the Dominican Republic. Legend says a girl whose family was having a bad time running their farm was visited by a vision of Nuestra Senora de la Altagracia. She tells her family of her dream, which includes the idea to plant orange seeds, saying thanks as they sow the seeds. The orange crops succeed in the first try. From then on an orange tree has always been planted at the place of the apparition.

The answer depends on the type of oranges.  They usually yield hundreds of oranges per tree per year.  Some large trees may bear 3,000 to 5,000 oranges each year.

He did not have "eyes", he had one eye. He saw two pears on the tree, and took one. In other words, he did not take "pears", and did not leave "pears".
