You can use cross multiplication. Note that 3/2 = 1.5

1kg .... $8

1.5kg .... $x

So we have,

$\dfrac{1}{1.5}=\dfrac{8}{x}\Longrightarrow x=8\cdot1.5=12$

3/2 kilogram of nuts costs $12.

Hope this helps.

Two numbers have a sum of 21, and 3

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: let the first number be x and the second number be y

according to the condition given

x+y=21

3x-y=43

using elimination method

3x+3y=63

3x-y=43

subtacting both the equations

4y=20

y=20/4

y=5

substituting value of y in eq 1

x+5=21

x=21-5

x=16

therefore x=16 and y=5

the two numbers are 16 and 5

The height h, in feet of a model rocket t seconds after launch is given

Illusion [34]

Answer:

h_max = 324.09 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct equation is;

h = 245t - 16t²

We are told that as the rocket descends, it deploys

a recovery parachute when it reaches 325 feet above the ground.

Thus;

245t - 16t² = 325

Thus;

16t² - 245t + 325 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have the roots as;

t = 1.47s or 13.85s

We will pick the higher value.

Thus;

Maximum height will occur at t = 13.85 s

Thus, plugging in 13.85 for t into h = 245t - 16t², we have;

h_max = 245(13.85) - 16(13.85)²

h_max = 324.09 ft
