Rate at which each pumpkin is sold = $5
Rate at which each squash is sold = $3
Let us assume the number of pumpkins sold in a day = x
Then
The number of squash sold on that day = x + 6
Total amount of sales on that day = $98
Then
5x + 3( x + 6) = 98
5x + 3x + 18 = 98
8x = 98 - 18
8x = 80
x = 80/8
  = 10
So
The number of pumpkins sold = 10
The number of squash sold = x + 6
                                            = 10 + 6
                                            = 16

Answer:

R- (-10, -3)

S- (-10, -6)

Q- (-5, -3)

P- (-5, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, Q and P would be the exact same coordinates since that land directly on the reflection line.

Basically, on this graph/question you can count how far away the vertices is from the reflection line.

For example, Point R is 5 units away from the reflection line, therefore I need to count over 5 times to the left from the reflection line for point R. (Idk if that makes sense or not, ask questions if you are confused).

Find the mean of the data set: 9 4 7 3 10 9
almond37 [142]
To find the mean, add up at the numbers and divide by the number of numbers in the set (6)

9 + 4 + 7 + 3 + 10 + 9 = 
9 + 11 + 12 + 10
20 + 22
42 

42 / 6 = 7

the mean is 7.

Jojo bear bought 2 juices for 2.95 per juice and three bags of chips for 1.20 each. How much did he spend in total. Show work
stealth61 [152]
He spent $9.50 in total. To find this answer, you write the equation 2(9.95) + 3(1.20). You would distribute getting 5.90 + 3.60= $9.50.
