They sold 187 small bags and 75 large bags.

Two variables L and S (large & small)

We know that L + S = 262  -> the amount of bags sold

We also know that 3L + 1S = $412 -> total money made

L = 262 - S 

Plug that into the second equation:

3(262 - S) + 1S = 412

786 - 3S + 1S = 412

786 - 2S = 412
786 - 412 = 2S
374 = 2S
S = 187
187 small bass and 
So they sold 187 small bags

L = 262 - 187 = 75 

They sold 75 large bags.

0.8 is 10 times as great as what decimal
kondor19780726 [428]
When we say that 2y is 2 times greater than y, this means that if we divide 2y by 2 we will get the y.

Similarly, to know the decimal that is less that 0.8 by 10 times, simply divide 0.8 by 10 as follows:
decimal = 0.8 / 10 = 0.08

This means that 0.8 is 10 times larger than 0.08

Every set of three points must be collinear.
maria [59]

Answer:

I suppose you're trying to make a triangle of some sort on a plane! So, in this case, yes the three points would reside all on the same plane. Making all three of them collinear.

What is the root of this equation? <br>2x^2 - 4x + 9 = 0​
faust18 [17]

Answer:

x = 1 + i sqrt(7/2) or x = 1 - i sqrt(7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

2 x^2 - 4 x + 9 = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

x^2 - 2 x + 9/2 = 0

Subtract 9/2 from both sides:

x^2 - 2 x = -9/2

Add 1 to both sides:

x^2 - 2 x + 1 = -7/2

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 1)^2 = -7/2

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 1 = i sqrt(7/2) or x - 1 = -i sqrt(7/2)

Add 1 to both sides:

x = 1 + i sqrt(7/2) or x - 1 = -i sqrt(7/2)

Add 1 to both sides:

Answer:  x = 1 + i sqrt(7/2) or x = 1 - i sqrt(7/2)
