If we call g the number of green peppers and r the number of red peppers, we know that adding r to g will give us 14, or symbolically:

r + g = 14.

We also know that Ron has 8 more red peppers than green peppers - adding 8 to the number of green peppers gets us the number of red peppers, so we can represent that as

r = g + 8

Notice that the question "What number plus 8 equals r?" is really just a subtraction problem in disguise. If we start at g and go <em>up </em>8, we arrive at r, but we could also start at r and go <em>down </em>g to arrive at 8, getting us the equation

r - g = 8

So now we've got this set of equations:

r + g = 14

r - g = 8

If <em>adding </em>g to r gets us 14 and <em>subtracting </em>g from r gets us 8, our number must be right in the middle of 14 and 8 - exactly the number 11. So

r = 11

And since r and g have to add up to 14, this forces g to be 3 since 11 + 3 = 14

We therefore have 11 red peppers and 3 green peppers.

Hello!

Let's put this as a system of equations.

r= 8+g

r+g=14

Let's plug our r value into the second equation and solve for g.

8+g+g=14

8+2g=14

Now we subtract 8 from both sides.

2g=6

We divide both sides by 2.

g=3

Therefore, he has 3 green peppers.

I hope this helps!

I am doing with Question Number 2

Let the two numbers be 'x' and 'y'.

According to the question, the product of two numbers is 14.

x \times y=14

So, xy=14 (Equation 1)

Now, one of the numbers is 3 ½ times the other.

So, x = 3\frac{1}{2}\times y

x=\frac{7}{2}y (Equation 2)

Substituting the value of 'x' from equation 2 in equation 1, we get

\frac{7}{2}y \times y = 14

\frac{7}{2}y^{2} = 14

y^{2} = 4

So, y= 2 and -2

So, x=\frac{14}{2} and x=\frac{14}{-2}

x=7 and -7

Numbers are 2,7 and -2,-7.

Sum of numbers 2 and 7 = 9

Sum of numbers -2 and -7 = -9.

I'll do number 11 for you 

Area of a sector can be found using 
A = (πr²)C/360  where C is the measure of your central angle
A =  \pi  (6^{2} )( \frac{75}{360} )
A ≈ 23.56 m²

Oh, I guess rounded to the nearest tenth is 23.6
