Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

We use PEMDAS to solve this,

so P stands for parentheses, so that's where we start.

We first, square the innermost parentheses with the exponent which is the E in PEMDAS, then then the outer parentheses

-12/3*(-8+16-6)+2

-12/3*(2)+2

Now we divide as in Division in PEMDAS.

-4*2+2

Now we multiply as in Multiplication in PEMDAS.

-8+2

Now we add as in A for Addition

-6

In PEMDAS, Multiplication doesn't always come before division, and same for addition and subtraction.

Whats the cost of each vegetable if 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32​
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

 

We first need to define a couple of variables.  Let s = the cost of 1 squash and z = the cost of 1 zucchini.

 

Now lets translate the words into algebra:

 

"The cost of 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32"  ===>  5s  +  2z  =  1.32

 

"Three squash and 1 zucchini cost $0.75"  ===>   3s  +  z  =  0.75

 

There are several ways to solve systems of equations.  Let's use substitution.  We can find what z equals in terms of s by manipulating the second equation:

 

 3s  +   z   =   0.75

-3s                 -3s

------------     -------------

           z    =  -3s  +0.75

 

Now lets substitute (-3s + 0.75) into the first equation for z, then solve for s:

 

 5s + 2(-3s + 0.75) = 1.32

 

Can you handle it from here?

 

(Hint: Once you have solved for s, you can substitute that value back into either of the equations and solve for z.)

Quadrilateral ABCD has the following vertices.
Marizza181 [45]
A(-5,5)
B(4,5)
C(2,0)
D(-5,-2)

AB,BC,CD,DA

AB = [4-(-5)),5-5]=[9,0]
Lenght  AB= \sqrt{9^2+0^2}= \sqrt{81}  =9

BC = [2-4,0-5]=[-2,-5]
Lenght  BC=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{4+25}=\sqrt{29}

CD = [-5-2,-2-0]=[-7,-2]
Lenght  CD=\sqrt{(-7)^2+(-2)^2}=\sqrt{49+4}=\sqrt{53}

DA =[-5-(-5),-2-5]=[0,-7]
Lenght DA=\sqrt{0^2+(-7)^2}=\sqrt{49}=7

sorted from longest to shortest:
AB, CD,DA,BC
\sqrt{81}, \sqrt{53}, \sqrt{49}, \sqrt{29}

Solve the system of equations using the substitution method.
Kaylis [27]
Okay so here to find the answer you have to solve for any one by setting them in y=mx+b form 
y=-3x+7               x=-2y-16
2y=-x-16              6=-2y-16
x=6                      22=-2y
                           -11=y
