There are 16 oz in a pound
a) 1.92 / 16 = $0.12 per oz
b) 3.52 / (16 x 2) = $0.11 per oz
c) Meat 2 is the better buy since it is cheaper
All sides are equal in an equilateral triangle and the perpendicular bisects the side too.
so BC will be bisected and the segments be 5 each.
you can use Pythagoras theorem to find the altitude length, hypotenuse will be one side of the triangle.
$h^2=100-25=75$
$h=\sqrt{75}=5\sqrt3$
Answer:
x = 3 , y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that both equations is equal to y. Set the two equations equal to each other
y = 7x - 8; y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = 5x - 2
Isolate the x. Subtract 5x and add 8 to both sides
7x (-5x) - 8 (+8) = 5x (-5x) - 2 (+8)
7x - 5x = -2 + 8
Simplify.
(7x - 5x) = (-2 + 8)
2x = 6
Isolate the x. Divide 2 from both sides
(2x)/2 = (6)/2
x = 6/2
x = 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plug in 3 for x in one of the equations.
y = 7x - 8
y = 7(3) - 8
Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
y = 7(3) - 8
y = 21 - 8
y = 13
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x = 3, y = 13 is your answer
~
5 because this is equivalent to 9-4 which is 5 meters, this is because he is going up 9 and then goes down 4, do 9-4, which is 5
G = x
Felicia is Gabriella's age + 6
F = x + 6
Their mother is twice Felicia's age
M = 2(x + 6) or 2x + 12
Tanya is the age of their mother plus Gabriella's age
A = 2x + 12 + x = 3x + 12
3x + 12
