Answer:

$42.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create a proportion using the following setup:

cost/pounds=cost/pounds

We know that it costs $20.42 for a 10 pound turkey.

$20.42/10 pounds= cost/pounds

We don't know how much a 21 pound turkey costs, so we can say that it costs $x for a 21 pound turkey.

$20.42/ 10 pounds= $x/ 21 pounds

20.42/10=x/21

We want to find x, by getting x by itself.

x is being divided by 21. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides by 21.

21*(20.42/10)=(x/21)*21

21* 20.42/10=x

21*2.042=x

42.882=x

Round to the nearest cent, or hundredth.

42.88=x

x= $42.88

A 21 pound turkey costs $42.88

To find the area of any regular (regular means all sides are = and all angles are =)  poylgon when you know the length of the apothem and the length of the side you can use the formula:
A = (1/2)ap where a = the length of the apothem and p = the perimeter of the polygon. You can also use n*s in place of p where n = the number of sides of the polygon and s = the length of the side.

A= (1/2)(16)(19*8) (An octagon has 8 sides.)
A = 1216 in^2

Find the solution to the system of equations x = -6 + 2y and x = 2y + 2.
andrew-mc [135]

x=-6+2y

x=2+2y

by subtraction

___________________________

x=-8

Substitute x by one of the two equations :

x=-6+2y

-8=-6+2y

2y=-8+6

2y=-2

y=-2/2

y=-1

I think this is the answer

I hope I helped you^_^
