When Jonathan bought 12 peaches and pears, at $1.50 per peach and
at $1.60 per pear, the total price was $18.50.
How many peaches and pears did he buy, respectively?
Fill in the blanks provided and solve for the answer.​

Answers

Answer 1
Answer 5 pears and 7 peaches

Explanation: you will need to make two equations to represent the problem
X being for peaches and y for pears
x+y= 12
1.5x + 1.6y= 18.5

We are going to use the elimination method and so we need to cancel either x or y in this case x. So we multiple the top equation by -1.5
-1.5x - 1.5y = -18
1.5x + 1.6y = 18.5

Then we can cancel the x since they are opposite and we can add the rest
0.1y =0.5
Y= 5
Then we can substitute the y into one of the equations
x + 5= 12
x= 7

Andrea's living room floor is a rectangle 12 feet by 15 feet. She wants to buy a rug that is geometrically similar to her living room floor. Which size of rug should she buy? *

Answers

Answer:

180 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A rug that is geometrically similar to her room floor is one that has the same size as her room floor.

The floor has dimensions 12 feet by 15 feet.

The area of the floor and hence, the rug is:

A = 12 * 15 = 180 square feet

Leave your answer in proper fraction form, then round to 1 decimal place.
Using your rounded answer, how many minutes would that be?

Answers

Answer:

1hr 37min 18 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Jack can mow the baseball grounds in 6 hours

Jack rate = 1/6 job/hr

-------------------------------

Mike can mow the same grounds in 5 hours

Mike rate = 1/5 job/hr

-------------------------------

Chris can mow the grounds in 4 hours.

Chris rate = 1/4 job/hr

-------------------------------

Together rate = 1/x job/hr

----------------------------------

Equation:

rate + rate + rate = together rate

[ 1/6 + 1/5 + 1/4] = 1/x

x[(5*4 + 6*4+ 6*5)/(6*5*4)] = 1

C. x < 10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 8 < 12

Add 8 to both sides

2x < 20

Divide both sides by 2

x < 10

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the inequality 2x - 8 < 12,

[tex]2x - 8 < 12,\\2x < 20,\\x < 10\\\\Conclusion - Option C[/tex]

As you can tell, for the first step we added 8 on either side of the inequality sign, resulting with the cancelation of 8, and the addition of 8 and 20. Dividing 2 on either side of this simplified inequality, we resulted in x < 10. Note that if we were to divide by a negative value, this less than sign would be taken as a greater than sign ( same rule applies for the multiplication of a negative number ).

If u subtract 1/2 from a number and multiply the result by 1/2, u get 1/8, what is the number. please help whoever answers correctly I will mark them brainiest, rate them, and thanks to them.

Answers

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x.

Subtract 1/2 from the unknown number: x - 1/2

Multiply the result by 1/2: 1/2(x - 1/2)

You get 1/8: 1/2(x - 1/2) = 1/8

Now we solve the equation for x.

1/2(x - 1/2) = 1/8

Multiply both sides by 2.

2 * 1/2(x - 1/2) = 2 * 1/8

x - 1/2 = 1/4

Multiply both sides by 4

4x - 4 * 1/2 = 4 * 1/4

4x - 2 = 1

Add 2 to both sides.

4x = 3

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 3/4

Find the value of x for which the graph of y = 3x^2 - 8x + 7 achieves its minimum y-value.​

Answers

The y value achieves its minimum at x = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the graph of y to be 3x² - 8x + 7, to get the value of x for which the graph function achieves its minimum y value, we need to find its turning point first.

At the turning point, dy/dx = 0

Given y = 3x² - 8x + 7

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x-8\\ at\ turning\ point\ 6x-8 = 0[/tex]

What is one value that is a solution t
o 4x+ .8>3.2 b
ut not -6 <-5x - 1

Answers

Answer:

x = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

What this question asks us is that what value of x solves the first inequality but does not work for the second

Let’s solve the first inequality;

4x > 3.2-0.8

4x > 2.4

x > 2.4/4

x > 0.6

Now all values of x which is greater than 0.6 is a solution to the first inequality

Now to the second, we have;

-6 > -5x -1

Using the range of values from the first inequality;

if we say x = 0.8

Then

-6 > -5(0.8) -1

-6 > -4-1

-6 > -5

But this is not right in the real sense as actually

-5 > -6

So we can confirm that 0.8 is a solution that works for the first inequality but doesn’t work for the second

The formula for the area of a triangle is , where b is the length of the base and h is the height.

Find the height of a triangle that has an area of 30 square units and a base measuring 12 units.

3 units
5 units
8 units
9 units

Answers

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh

30 = 1/2 (12)h

Multiply

30 = 6h

Divide each side by 6

30/6 = 6h/6

5 = h

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time please supply the formula, which was apparently given in this question:

A = (1/2)(base)(height)

Here, A = 30 units^2 = (1/2)(12 units)(height), or

                30 units^2 = (6 units)(height)

Solving for (height), we get

                 30 units^2

(height) = ------------------ = 5 units

                   6 units

The height is 5 units

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point. y= 1/2x - 8; (-6,-17)

Answers

Answer:

y = x/2 -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines are parallel, their slopes are equal

For the first line, we have

y = 0.5x -8

so comparing this with the standard form y = mx + c

Our m is the slope which is 0.5 here

kindly recall that 1/2 is same as 0.5

so the slope of the line we want to form also is 0.5

Now, we use the point slope form to find the equation of this new line

Mathematically that would be;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

So;

y-(-17) = 0.5(x-(-6)

y + 17 = 0.5(x + 6)

y + 17 = 0.5x + 3

y = 0.5x + 3-17

y = 0.5x -14

or y = x/2 -14

What is the solution to the equation Negative (5 minus (a + 1)) = 9 minus (5 minus (2a minus 3))? a = –5 a = –3 a = 3 a = 5

Answers

Answer:

a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

negative (5 minus (a + 1)) = 9 minus (5 minus (2a minus 3)) can be expressed mathematically as follows.

- (5 - (a + 1)) = 9 - (5 - (2a - 3))

using the principle of PEMDAS, all the parenthesis values are first solved

- (5 - a - 1) = 9 - (5 - 2a + 3)

-5 + a + 1 = 9 - 5 + 2a - 3

collect like terms

-5 + 1 - 9 + 5 + 3 = 2a - a

-5 = a Therefore,

a = -5

Heather and Carlos each improved their yards by planting grass sod and geraniums. They bought their supplies from the same store. Heather spent $171 on 14ft^2 of grass sod and 5 geraniums. Carlos spent $117 on 6ft^2 of grass sod and 7 geraniums. Find the cost of one ft^2 of grass sod and the cost of one geranium.

Answers

Answer:

The cost of one ft^2 of grass sod = $9

the cost of one geranium= $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write a cost equation for each one:

Heather : 14x+5y =171

Carlos: 6x+7y=117

Where x is the cost of one ft^2 of grass sod and y is the cost of one geranium.

Multiplying Heather's equation by 7, Carlos' equation by 5, and subtracting Carlos' cost to Heather's cost:

98x+35y=1,197

-

30x+35y=585

____________

68x=612

Solving for x:

x = 612/68

x=$9 per ft2

Replacing x=9 on any equation:

6(9)+7y=117

54+7y=117

7y=117-54

7y=63

y=63/7

y=$9
