C= number of crickets
g= number of grasshoppers= twice number of crickets= 2c
T= total number of both= 561

If you add the number of crickets and the number if grasshoppers, you'll get a total of 561.

c + g= T
c + g= 561

Now we also know that grasshoppers are 2c (twice the crickets). Substitute 2c for g in the equation to solve for c.

c + g= 561
c + 2c= 561
combine like terms
3c= 561
divide both sides by 3
c= 187 crickets

Substitute number of crickets back in equation to find g.

c + g= 561
187 + g= 561
subtract 187 from both sides
g= 374 grasshoppers

CHECK:
Since grasshoppers are twice the number of crickets, then multiplying the number of crickets by two should equal the number of grasshoppers.
187 * 2= 374
374= 374

ANSWER: 187 crickets and 374 grasshoppers

Hope this helps! :)

4.Given w(x) =3×-2, v(x) =2×+7 and k(x)= -6x-7, find (w-v-k) (2)?​
Ivan

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

We input 2 into each function:

w(2) = 3(2) - 2 = 4

v(2) = 2(2) + 7 = 11

k(2) = -6(2) - 7 = -19

Then we place our answers in w - v - k

(4) - (11) - (-19)

= 4 - 11 + 19

= 12

Dominic invested $4,000 into an account that earns 3% interest compounded quarterly. How much money will be in the account after
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

$7272.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal, P = $4,000

Interest rate, r = 3% = 0.03

Period, t = 20 years

Number of times compounded in a year = 4

Amount , A = P( 1 + r/n)^tn

A = 4000( 1 + 0.03/4)^4*20

A = 4000( 1 + 0.0075) ^80

A =4000( 1.0075) ^80

A = 4000* 1.818

A = $7272.18

Solve for x 10x+1=12x-5
Verdich [7]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 10x+1-1 = 12x-5-1, this becomes a new equation

Equation: 10x = 12x-6

2) 10x-12x = 12x-12x-6, this become a new equation

Equation: -2x = -6

3) Divide both sides by -2: -2x/2 = -6/2

4) Once you simplify, you will get x=3

Hope this helps!
