Answer:

  8 bags of pretzels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bags of pretzels Tim buys. We assume he spends exactly $20 on exactly 12 bags of snack food. Then his purchase is ...

  1.50x + 2.00(12-x) = 20.00

  -0.50x +24.00 = 20.00 . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  -0.50x = -4.00 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 24

  x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . divide by -0.50

Tim will buy 8 bags of pretzels.

Work out the area of a circle with a radius 6.2cm, take n/pi to be 3.142 and give your answer to 2 decimal places.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area is pi times r squared.  I don't know how to write that on the keyboard.  Take your pi(3.142) times the radius(6.2)squared.  Pemdas tell us to do exponents first, so 6.2 squared is 38.44.  To square a number, just multiply it times itself.  So now, we have pi(3.142) times the squared radius(38.44).  So, 3.142X38.44=

120.778  Second place is seven followed by eight.  Round up.  120.78
