Answer: Andre picked 252 pounds of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of pounds of apple picked by Jane.

Let y = number of pounds of apple picked by Andre

Let z = number of pounds of apple picked by Maria

Andre picks three times as many pounds as maria. It means that

y = 3z

Jane picks two times as many pounds as Andre. It means that

x = 2y

The total weight of the apples is 840 pounds. It means that

x + y + z = 840 - - - - - - - - - 1

We will substitute z = y/3 and x = 2y into equation 1

2y + y + y/3 = 840

Cross multiplying with 3

6y + 3y + y = 2520

10y = 2520

y = 2520/10 = 252

x = 2y = 252× 2 = 504

z = y/3 = 252/3 = 84

A cylinder and a cone have congruent bases and the same volume. What could be the height of the cylinder and the height of the c
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is expressed as

V = πr^2h

Where

π is a constant

h is the height of the cylinder

The volume of a cone is expressed as

V = 1/3πr^2h

Where

π is a constant

h is the height of the cone

If the cylinder and a cone have congruent bases and the same volume, it means that

πr^2h = 1/3πr^2h

πr^2 cancels out on both the left hand side and right hand side of the equation. It becomes

h = h/3

It means that the height of the cone is 3 times the height of the cylinder. Therefore,

If height of cylinder = 4 cm, height of cone = 12 cm

Please help. 25 points!
Misha Larkins [42]

Step-by-step explanation:

1-

(9 - 2) ^{2}  - (2 ^{2}  - 3 ^{2} ) + 2

calculate the powers behind the brackets from left to right

2-

(49) ^  - (4 - 9 ) + 2

Calculate the powers (a power squared means the number times itself so 2 squared equals 4)

3-

49 - - 5+2

Calculate the sum ( minus minus equals plus so for example 4- -5= 4+5=9)

4- 49+5+2= 56

A linear function contains the following points. (0,-4) (4,4) What are the slope and y-intercept of this function?​
galben [10]

Answer:

slope = 2

y-intercept= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = y2- y1/ x2-x1

slope = 4-(-4) / 4-0

slope = 2

using (4,4) for (x,y)

y= mx+b

4= 2(4)+b

b= -4
