1 answer:

6 0

A few reasons are:
1) They contain very little to no chemicals
2) It takes more work to grow, care for, and harvest
3) Majority of farmers produce organic food as a living so it has to be more expensive if they actually want to make a profit

\begin{cases}

find the volume of the figure. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. (figure is not to scale)

ludmilkaskok [199]

The volume is 336 cubic feet

6x8x3 = 144

Pls answer and show WORK pls do it right

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

4/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 needs to be converted to sixths, so we would multiple the numerator and the denominator by 3, because 2 goes into 6, 3 times, then we would get 3/6 + 1/6, then just add, 1 + 3 = 4, and then you end up with 4/6. Have A Great Day!

Could someone pls send me an example of using the substitution method in algebra?

Elden [556K]

Answer:

in this method a variable is expressed in terms of another variable from one equation and it is substituted in remaining equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

solve:x+2y=9 and 3x-y=13.

x+ 2y=9…be the first equation

3x-y=13…be the second equation

from first equation

x=9-2y…be the third equation substituting value of x from third equation in second equation, we get

3(9-2y)-y=13

or, 27-6y-y=13

or, y=2

now,

substituting value of y in third equation, we get,

x=9-2×2

=9-4

the required value of x and y are 5&2

Find the reciprocal of the expression. 10b/2b + 8

Alexus [3.1K]

Comment
I think you need brackets to clarify what you mean. I think it should be written as
10b/(2b + 8)

If that is the case the reciprocal is

(2b + 8)/10b You just turn everything up side down. There are technical ways of doing this, but the easiest way is just to do what I just did.

Put the numerator in the denominator,
Put the denominator in the numerator.

You could simplify this a bit.
2b/10b + 8/10b
which reduces further.

1/5 + 4/5b
Just to make sure you understand where that b is, I will do this in

Latex. $\frac{2b + 8}{10b} = \frac{2b}{10b} + \frac{8}{10b} = \frac{2}{10} + \frac{4}{5b} = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{4}{5b}$

Alternate answer
If you do mean what your wrote then the reciprocal is 2b / 10b + 8 which is 1/5 + 8 = 8 + 0.2 = 8.2

The 8 has nothing to do with the reciprocal under these conditions.

The answer
I have given you all the choices I can think of without going into decimals. If you have choices, please list them under the comments.
