This answer seems really hard but just don't overthink it. You pretty much don't have to do any math. It took me forever to do this because I was thinking so hard but i re-read it and the answer was right infront of me.

1.00p + 3.26n = $248.52

Answer:

  • n + p = 131
  • 3.26n + 1.00p = 248.52

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations refers to having more than one equations to solve more than one variable with.

The first equation is just using the weight of the nuts. Knowing that a total of 131 pounds of nuts were sold, and that the total weight is the sum of the weight of macadamias(n) and peanuts(p):

<em>n + p = 131</em>

The second equation is using the price of the nuts. Knowing that a total $248.52 was made, and that the total is the sum of the money made from macadamias and peanuts:

<em>3.26n + 1.00p = 248.52</em>

How do you determine if two numbers or expressions are equal
Alja [10]
You can determine if two numbers are equal if they have the same value. (4 are 4 are equal) (4 and 5 are not equal). You can determine if two expressions are equal by solving them. If the answers are of an equal value, they are equal. (4+5 and 6+3 are equal because they both work out to be 9) (4+5 and 5+5 are not equal because they work out to be 9 and 10.)

Kevin and Randy Muise have a jar containing 70 coins, all of which are either quarters or nickels. The total value of the coins
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

50 nickels, 20 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

System of equations (q = # of quarters, n = # of nickels):

<em>q + n = 70, 0.25q + 0.05n = 7.50</em>

the first equation can be changed to q = 70 - n, so we are able to <em>substitute q with 70 - n</em>.

So, it will look like <em>0.25*70 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 7.50</em>. This can be simplified to <em>0.2n = 10</em>, which means that n = 50.

Knowing that we can solve <em>q + 50 = 70</em>, which means that q = 20.

0.00000003 in scientific notation
tester [92]

Answer:

3×10x^{-8}

Step-by-step explanation:

0.00000003

Move the decimal so there is one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The number of decimal places you move will be the exponent on the  

10 . If the decimal is being moved to the right, the exponent will be negative. If the decimal is being moved to the left, the exponent will be positive.
