Let's write 2 equations from the two statements given.
<em>Sarah spent 10 dollars on both oranges and apples</em>
<em />
Let the price of oranges be "x" and price of apples be "y", thus we can write:
Oranges cost 3 less than apples, thus we can say:
We can substitute this into the first equation and solve for y:
Thus, let's solve for x now,
We want the price of oranges (x), thus,
<em>Price of Oranges = $3.50</em>
Answer:
314 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Depth (height) of the pool = of its radius
let the radius be 'r' ft
thus,
Depth (height) of the pool, h = ft
Volume of the pool = 1570 ft³
also,
Volume of cylinder = πr²h
thus,
1570 ft³ = πr²h
or
1570 ft³ =
or
3140 = 3.14 × r³ [ π = 3.14 ]
or
r³ = 1000 ft³
or
r = 10 ft
Thus,
Area of the bottom surface = πr²
= 3.14 × 10²
= 314 ft²
