Jay caught two times as many fish as bob. together they caught 27 fish. how many fish did they each catch.

1 answer:

8 0

Let Bobs catch be x, then Jay's catch is 2x.
x + 2x = 27
3x = 27
x = 27/3 = 9

Therefore, Jay caught 2 x 9 = 18 fishes and Bob caught 9 fishes.

PLEASE HELP!!!!! Geometry

devlian [24]

Answer:

P = 49°

R = 131°

Q = 114°

S = 66°

Step-by-step explanation:

in a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle, the opposite angles are always supplementary, meaning they add up to 150

we are given opposite angles P and R (S is not given so we can't use Q and S)

P+R = 180

5y+14 + 15y + 26 = 180

20y + 40 = 180

20y = 140

y = 7

so...

P = 5(7) + 14 = 35 + 14 = 49

R = 180-49 (since opposite angles in inscribed quadrilaterals are supplementary) = 131

Q = (7)^2 + 65 = 49 + 65 = 114

S = 180-114 = 66

Julio and David were in Target and decided to check out the clearance section. They found pencils and erasers that were on sale

Sati [7]

Answer:

Cost of one pencil: $\$0.07$

Cost of one eraser: $\$0.03$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "p" the cost in dollars of one pencil and "e" the cost in dollars of one eraser.

Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following system of equations:

$\left \{ {{4p+3e=0.37} \atop {3p+4e=0.33 }} \right.$

You can use the Elimination Method to solve the system of equations.

Multiply the first equation by -3 ad the second one by 4. Then add the equations and solve for "e":

{ $\left \{ {{-12p-9e=-1.11} \atop {12p+16e=1.32}} \right.\\..........................\\7e=0.21\\\\e=0.03$

Substitute the value of "e" into any original equation and solve for "p":

$4p+3(0.03)=0.37\\\\p=\frac{0.28}{4}\\\\p=0.07$
