L = lemon drops

J = jelly beans

L +J = 100

L=100-J

1.90L + 1.20J=1.48*100

1.90(100-j) +1.20J =148

190-1.90J+1.20J=148

190-0.7J=148

-0.7J=-42

J = 60

L=100-60 = 40


40 pounds of Lemon Drops are needed

Find the area of the composite shape
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

13.735 ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle.

A=\pi r^{2}

r=d/2\\r=8/2\\r=4

A=\pi \times 4^{2}

A=16\pi

A \approx 50.2654824574

Area of a square.

A=s^{2}

A=8^{2}

A=64

Subtract the area of the square with the area of the circle.

64-50.2654824574

= 13.7345175426

I hope it helps.

Brainliest much appreciated.

Helena uses a mixture of compost and topsoil in her garden. She purchased a total of 10 cubic yards of compost and topsoil for $
Annette [7]

Let C be the amount of compost

T be the amount of  topsoil

Each compost cost = $25

Cost of C compost = 25C

Each topsoil cost = $15

Cost of T topsoil = 15T

Amount of compost + amount of topsoil = 10

C + T = 10 -------> Equation 1

cost of C compost + cost of T topsoil = 180

25C + 15T = 180 --------> equation 2

Solve  the first equation for C

C + T = 10

C = 10 - T

Now plug it in second equation

25C + 15T = 180

25 ( 10 - T) +15T = 180

250 - 25T + 15T = 180 (combine like terms)

250 - 10 T = 180 (Subtract 250 on both sides)

-10T = 180 - 250

-10T = -70 ( divide by -10 on both sides)

T = 7

She purchased  7 cubic yards of topsoil .

Plz help me this is already suppose to be done lol
nignag [31]

Answer:

1. 247 mg ÷ 10 = 24.7 cg

2. 247 mg ÷ 100 = 2.47 dg

247 mg ÷ 1000 = 0.247 g

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To convert from 'mg' to 'cg', you must divide by 10 because 'cg' consists of 10 mg.

2. To convert from 'mg' to 'dg', you must divide by 100 because 'dg' consists of 100 mg.

3. To convert from 'mg' to 'g', you must divide by 1000 because 'g' consists of 1000 mg.
