Answer:
The price of one pound of bell peppers is $0.6.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is equivalent to the following:
<em>"if 10 oranges cost $20, how much does 1 orange cost? "</em>
and the answer to that question is:
price of 1 orange = $20/ 10 oranges = $2 per orange.
Put simply, we divided the total price by the total number of items, and we shall do the same thing for the case of bell peppers:
price of 1 pound = $1.25/ 2.5 pounds = $0.5/ pound.
The price for 1 pound of bell peppers is $0.5.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
y - 2x - 8 = 0 ( add 2x + 8 to both sides )
y = 2x + 8 → (1)
y² + 8x = 0 → (2)
Substitute y = 2x + 8 into (2)
(2x + 8)² + 8x = 0 ← expand left side using FOIL and simplify
4x² + 32x + 64 + 8x = 0
4x² + 40x + 64 = 0 ( divide through by 4 )
x² + 10x + 16 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 8)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form
x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
Substitute these values into (1) for corresponding values of y
x = - 8 : y = 2(- 8) + 8 = - 16 + 8 = - 8 ⇒ P (- 8, - 8)
x = - 2 : y = 2(- 2) + 8 = - 4 + 8 = 4 ⇒ Q (- 2, 4 )
Calculate the length of PQ using the distance formula
PQ = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = P (- 8, - 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q (- 2, 4 )
PQ =
