The value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is 11

<h3>How to solve the expression?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Peanut = 1
  • Grape = 2
  • Acorn + 3 grapes = 14
  • Acorn = 1/2 Plum

Substitute Grape = 2  in Acorn + 3 grapes = 14

Acorn + 3 *2  = 14

Acorn + 6  = 14

Subtract 6 from both sides

Acorn  = 8

Substitute Acorn  = 8 in Acorn = 1/2 Plum

8 = 1/2 Plum

Multiply both sides by 2

Plum = 16

So, we have:

Peanut = 1

Grape = 2

Acorn  = 8

Plum = 16

The value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is:

(2 plums + peanut)/(grape + peanut)

This gives

(2 * 16 + 1)/(2+ 1)

Evaluate

11

Hence, the value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is 11

a walking path BE in a park intersects intersects two sides of the park at their midpoints. You walk from point D to E, E to B,
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Total distance covered = 436 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Walking path BE joins the midpoints B and E of the sides AC and AD.

By midsegment theorem,

"Line joining midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel and measure half of the third side"

m(BE) = \frac{1}{2}[m(CD)]

CD = 2(BE)

CD = 2(74) = 128 yd

From starting point D,

DE = 107 yd

EB = 74 yd

BC = \frac{254}{2}

     = 127 yd

CD = 128 yd

Total walking distance = DE + EB + BC + CD

                                      = 107 + 74 + 127 + 128

                                      = 436 yd

Total distance covered = 436 yards
