T=lb of turkey
c=lb of chicken


alrighty

400lb meat
c+t=400
total amount of money is 650
cost=amount times cost per u nit
cost for chicken is c times 1.85 or 1.85c
cost for turkey is t times 1.40 or 1.40t

so the equations are
c+t=400 and
1.85c+1.4t=650

The width of a box is two-third of it's length and height is one-third of it's length.If the volume of the box is 384 cubic mete
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Length = 12

Width = 8

Height = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length of box = l

Width = 2/3 * l

Height = 1/3 * l

Volume of the box = 384 ft³

Volume = Length * width * height

Volume of box = l * 2/3 l * 1/3 l

384 = 2l³ / 9

384 * 9 = 2l³

3456 = 2l³

l³ = 3456 / 2

l³ = 1728

Take the Cube root of 1728

l = 12

Length = 12

Width = 2/3 * 12 = 8

Height = 1/3 * 12 = 4

Evaluate n+2x2 when n=3 and x=−2.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

When n=3 and x=−2  the answer is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let p (n,x) be the function such that

p (n,x) = n + 2x^{2}

To Find:

p (n,x) = p ( 3, -2) = ?

Solution:

p (n,x) = n + 2x^{2}

Substituting n = 3 and x = -2 we get

p (3, -2) = 3 + 2(-2)^{2}

Negative square gives positive number therefore (-2)²=4

p (3, -2) = 3 + 2\times 4

p (3, -2) = 3 + 8\\p (3, -2) = 11

When n=3 and x=−2  the answer is 11.
