Answer:

  • 6 3-lb bags
  • 2 1-lb bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 3-lb bags purchased. Then the total purchase was ...

  $2(8 -x) +$5.50(x) = $37

  16 +3.50x = 37 . . . . . . . . . divide by $, collect terms

  3.50x = 21 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 16

  21/3.50 = x = 6 . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

You bought 6 3-lb bags of peanuts and 2 1-lb bags.

serious [3.7K]
The parabola divises the plan into 2 parts. Part 1 composes the point A, part 2 composes the points C, D, F.
+ All the points (x;y) satisfies: -y^2+x=-4 is on the <span>parabola.
</span>+ All the points (x;y) satisfies: -y^2+x< -4 is in part 1.
+ All the points (x;y) satisfies: -y^2+x> -4 is in part 2<span>.

And for the question: "</span><span>Which of the points satisfy the inequality, -y^2+x<-4"
</span>we have the answer: A and E

Answer:

  4/5 acre

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your allocations are ...

  goats: 3/5 acre

  pigs: 1/5 acre

  llamas: 2/5 acre

2 acres is 10/5 acres, so the remaining area is ...

  10/5 -3/5 -1/5 -2/5 = (10 -3 -1 -2)/5 = 4/5

4/5 acre is allocated to horses.
