Nuts.com sells raw almonds for $10 per pound and roasted pistachios for $12 per pound. Christopher spends $70, before taxes and

shipping, to purchase 6.3 total pounds of nuts. Let a represent the number of pounds of almonds and let p represent the number of pounds of pistachios. Which system of equations represents the situation?
Question 1 options:


{10a+p=70
a+70p=6.3



{10a+12p=70
a+p=6.3



{10a+12p=6.3
a+p=70



{10a+12p=70
10a+12p=6.3

Answer:

second equation

Step-by-step explanation:

10a + 12p = 70  (10 goes with almonds [a], 12 goes with pistachios[p], $10 and $12 is price per pound and $70 is total price, so that's why its = to 70)

a + p = 6.3        (this is total almonds and pistachios adding up to 6.3 pounds)

a = pounds of almonds

p = pounds of pistachios

Is (0,-2) a solution of x + y = 6?<br> Click on the correct answer?
goldenfox [79]
Answer:That is not the solution explanation: because if you put the 0 in place of the x in the equation, y would have to equal 6. If you put the -2 in place of the y then x would have to equal 8.
Simpler explanation: 0 + -2 = -2 not 6

A bowl contains candies of the same size in three flavors: orange, strawberry, and pineapple. If the probability of randomly pul
andre [41]
The pro<span>bability of randomly pulling out a pineapple candy would be 5 over 8. Because there are 8 candies total (this is the denominator) and only 3 flavors, you just simply add the two given candies, which is 2 + 1 = 3, and subtract the sum (which is 3) by 8. Therefore, 8 - 3 = 5 and you put that as the numerator and the total number of candies, 8, as the denominator. </span>

The length of a rectangular field is 6 metres longer than its width. If the area of the field is 72 square metres, What are the
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The length is 12metres, the width is 6metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the width is x, the length is x+6

The square is 72. The square of rectangular field is equal to product of length and width.

so x(x+6)=72

x^2+6x-72=0

a=1 b=6 c=-72

D= b^2-4ac= 6*6+288= 36+288= 324

sqrtD= 18

x1= (-b-sqrtD)/2a=(-6-18)/2= -12 (it is negative, but width is only positive. So this root doesn't match)

x2=(-b+sqrtD)/2a= (-6+18)/2= 12/2=6 - the width

The length is 6+6=12
