First, we determine the number of onions bought by Amanda using the given ratio above,

      O1 = (60 lbs potato)(4.5 lbs onion/18 lbs potato)
       O1 = 15 lbs onions

This should also be the same as the amount of onions bought by Jessica. With this, we can then determine the amount of broccoli bought by Jessica given the ratios.

         B = (15 lbs onions)(18 lbs broccoli/4 lbs onions)
                 B = 67.5 lbs broccoli.

Answer: 67.5 lbs broccoli

Answer:

The balance after the payment is $1263.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for amount after compound interest is

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{t}

Where, P is principal, r is rate of interest, n is number of time interest compounded in a period, number of periods.

According to the given information,

P=1455.69

r=0.128

n=365

t=45

Put these values in the above formula,

A=1455.69(1+\frac{0.128}{365})^{45}

A\approx 1478.84

The amount after compound interest is $1478.84. Add late fee chages $35 in this amount and subtract the payment of $250. So, the balance amount after payment is

Balance=1478.84+35-250=1263.84

Therefore the balance after the payment is $1263.84.

Solve the system of elimination -2x+2y+3z=0 -2x-y+z=-3 2x+3y+3z=5
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

x = 1 , y = 1 and z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+2y+3z=0    ------(1)

-2x-y+z=-3     --------(2)

2x+3y+3z=5    ---------(3)

<u>To find the values of x,y and z</u>

(3) - (2)⇒ 2y + 4z = 2

y + 2z = 1   --------(4)

(1) - (2)⇒ 3y +2z =3   ---(5)

(5) - (4)⇒ 2y = 2

y = 1

Substituting the value of y in (4) we get z =0

Substituting the value of y and z  in (1) we get x = 1

Therefore x = 1 , y = 1 and z = 0
