Answer:
Let's call:
f = price of 1 cup of dried fruit
a = price of 1 cup of almonds
In order to build the linear system, you need to consider that the total price of a bag is given by the sum of the price of cups times the number of cups in each bag, therefore:
Solve for a in first equation:
a = (6 - 3f) / 4
Then substitute in the second equation:
41/2 f + 6 · (6 - 3f) / 4 = 9
41/2 f + 9 - 9/2 f = 9
16 f = 0
f = 0
Now, substitute this value in the formula found for a:
a = (6 - 3·0) / 4
= 3/2 = 1.5
Hence, the cups of dried fruit are free and 1 cup of almond costs 1.5$
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer in fraction form = 1/20
Answer in decimal form = 0.05
Answer in percent form = 5%
These are three ways to express the same thing

Explanation:
Assume the gumball machine only has 5 gumballs, one of each color. The probability of getting yellow is 1/5 since there is one that is yellow out of 5 total.
The probability of getting a lion rubber band is 1/4 for similar reasoning as above.
Because the two events (getting yellow, getting a lion) are independent, this means we can multiply the two probabilities to get (1/5)*(1/4) = 1/20
Use your calculator to see that 1/20 = 0.05 which converts to 5% when you move the decimal point over 2 spots to the right.
Choice 1. He did not square 40, he just multiplied by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
The hypotenuse measures c cm while the other sides are 40 cm and 9 cm each.
Step 2:
According to the Pythagorean theorem,




This is the correct solution to the given problem. Hans did not square 40, he just multiplied by 2. Which is the first option.
This is a hard one so what you do is make a number line and put -5x, -9, and -24 hope this helps
Answer:
4.32
Step-by-step explanation:
You can multiply 16 by 0.27 to get the answer.
16*0.27=4.32
You can check your work with estimation because 27% is about 1/4 of the number, and just by looking at the number, 4 is 1/4 of the number.
