Answer:
- <u>120 pens and 200 pencils.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
You can set a system of two equations.
<u>1. Variables</u>
<u />
- x: number of pens
- y: number of pencils
<u>2. Cost</u>
- <em>each pen costs</em> $1, then x pens costs: x
- <em>each pencil costs</em> $0.5, then y pencil costs: 0.5y
- Then, the total cost is: x + 0.5y
- The cost of the whole purchase was $ 220, then the first equation is:
x + 0.5y = 220 ↔ equation (1)
<u>3. </u><em><u>There were 80 more pencils than pens</u></em>
Then:
pencils = 80 + pens
↓ ↓
y = 80 + x ↔ equation (2)
<u>4. Solve the system</u>
i) Substitute the equation (2) into the equation (1):
ii) Solve
iii) Substitute x = 120 into the equation (2)
Solution: 120 pens and 200 pencils ← answer
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C) 21 girls : 9 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
You just have to compare the ratio you're given to the answers and see if the ratios from the answers match up to the ratio you were given. The reason C is the answer is because if you divide by 3 in the ration, it is the same as the ratio you were given, 7:3
Answer:
6.69 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Diameter= 12cm
Radius= 6cm
Volume= 757.36cm^3
The expression for the volume of a cylinder is
V= πr^2h
Substitute
757.36= 3.142*6^2*h
757.36=113.112h
h= 757.36/113.112
h= 6.69 cm
