Answer:
The maximum profit will be reached by buying 500 brass magnetic spheres and 1500 silver magnetic spheres.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this you need to create a system of equations, with two values that will create the answer we are looking for, the thing that we don't know here is how many of each are we buying so the number of silver magnetic spheres will be represented by "y" and the brass magnetic spheres will be represented by "x".
So we know that x+y=2000
That's our first equation, our second would be the expense, which would be
8x+16y=20,000
We now just solve for one of them
x=(2000-y)
8(2000-y)+16y=20,000
16,000-8y+16y=20,000
8y=4,000
y=500
So we know that the maximum profit will be reached by buying 500 brass magnetic spheres and 1500 silver magnetic spheres.
So far your getting all of them right. But, maybe next time upload a better picture because it’s hard to see what you wrote.
Answer:
I think elimination with subtraction would be the best answer choice, since all the numbers are positive.
Answer:
The length of each side of the base is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of a square is equal to

where
b is the length side of a square
In this problem we have

so
substitute in the formula

Square root both sides
