If three pears and four oranges cost $4.85 and three pears and ten oranges cost $8.75 what is the cost of a pear and an orange
marishachu [46]

Answer:

1 pear = $0.75; 1 orange = $0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)               3P +  4O = 4.85

(2)              3P + 10O = 8.75                 Eqn (2) - Eqn (1)

3P + 10O – 3P – 4O = 8.75 – 4.85     Combine like terms

                           6O = 3.90                 Divide each side by 6

                             O = $0.65              Substitute into Eqn (1)

           3P + 4×0.65 = 4.85

               3P + 2.60 = 4.85                 Subtract 2.60 from each side

                           3P = 2.25                Divide each side by 3

                            P = $0.75

Oranges cost $0.65 each and pears are $0.75 each

State if the triangles are similar. If so, how do you know they are similar and complete the similarity statement. Triangle LKJ≈
Llana [10]

Answer: C) similar, SAS similarity, triangle LQR

==============================================

Explanation:

The vertical angles KLJ and QLR are congruent. This forms the "A" in "SAS". The angles in question are between the marked sides.

KL = 18 is twice that of QL = 9, or put another way, KL/QL = 18/9 = 2. The ratio of the sides is 2. Also, JL/RL = 16/8 = 2 is the same ratio. Because both pairs of sides have the same ratio, the sides are in proportion. This helps form the two "S" letters of "SAS".

The original triangle has LKJ mentioned at the top. Note the order as its important. We start with L and move to K, so LK is the first segment mentioned. LK = 18 pairs up with LQ = 9, meaning that LQ must be the first segment mentioned of the answer triangle. Therefore LQR is the correct letter sequence if we start with point L. Writing QLR is not correct because Q is the first letter here but Q does not pair up with L.

A company that makes cartons finds that the probability of producing a carton with a puncture is 0.04, the probability that a ca
Over [174]

Answer:

a) C. No, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner.

b) The probability that a carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is P(X ∪ Y) = 0.104.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be mutually exclusive, the probability of the two events happening at the same time should be 0. But the probability that a carton has a puncture and has a smashed corner is 0.004 and not 0.

Then, we can conclude the events "selecting a carton with a puncture" and "selecting a carton with a smashed corner" are not mutually exclusive.

The answer is "C. No, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner."

We can calculate the probability that the carton has a puncture <em>or </em>has a smashed comer simply by adding the probability of each event:

P(X\cup Y)=P(X)+P(Y)=0.1+0.04=0.104

P(X ∪ Y): probability that a carton has a puncture or a smashed corner.

10 Y What is the vertical change from Point A to Point B? 9 8 What is the horizontal change from Point A to Point B? 7 6 What is
Alina [70]

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph given ;

The vertical distance ; y - axis :

(y2 - y1) ; y2 = 2 ; y1 = 1

y2 - y1 = 2 - 1 = 1

The horizontal distance ; the x - axis :

(x2 - x1) ; x2 = 4 ; x1 = 2

x2 - x1 = 4 - 2 = 2

The slope ; the rate of change :

Change in y / change in x

The rate of change ;

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = 1 / 2

What's the slope of (-4,7)(-2,17)
yaroslaw [1]
Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) the slope of the line passes through these points will be:

m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

Data:
The points are (-4,7) and (-2,17), then the slope will be:
m=(17-7)/(-2+4)=7/2

Answer: the slope of the line passes through these points would be 7/2
