Answer:
8 lb of flounder at $2.50/lb
4 lb of shrimp at $5.00/lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the pounds of shrimp
Let B be the pounds of flounder
Let C be the cost per pound of flounder
A + B = 12
A = 12 - B
BC = 20
A(2C) = 20
BC = A(2C)
BC = (12 - B)(2C)
BC = 24C - 2BC
3BC = 24C
3B = 24
B = 8 lb
A + 8 = 12
A = 4 lb
Answer:
for quadratic equation 1
y^2-10y+21=0
Step-by-step explanation:
y^2-7y-3y+21=0
y(y-7)-3(y-7)=0
(y-7)(y-3)=0
y-7=0,y-3=0
y=7,y=3
y=(3,7)
for quadratic equation 2
16p^2-8p+1=0
16p^2-4p-4p+1=0
4p(4p-1)-1(4p-1)=0
(4p-1)twice=0
4p-1=0,4p-1=0
4p=1
p=1/4 twice
for quadratic equation 3
x^2-400=0
x^2=400
x=√400
x=20
for quadratic equation 4
-16m^2-8m-1=0
multiply the equation by -
16m^2+8m+1=0
16m^2+4m+4m+1=0
4m(4m+1)1(4m+1)=0
4m+1=0 twice
m=-1/4 twice
for quadratic equation 5
-3n^2+75=0
divide both side by -3
-3n^2/-3=-75/-3
n^2=25
n=√25
n=5
You multiply a number by 3 subtract 6 then add 2 the results is 20
what's the number ?
Let the number = x
multiply a number by 3
so, it becomes 3x
subtract 6 , so, 3x - 6
then add 2
so, 3x - 6 + 2
The result will be 20
So,
3x - 6 + 2 = 20
solve for x
3x - 4 = 20
Add 4 to both sides
3x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4
3x = 24
Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = 24/3
So,
x = 8
Answer:
a(10 - 13)
Step-by-step explanation:
The only common factor between these numbers is a, as 10 and 13 do not share factors (13 is prime). We can only factor out a.
