Answer:

  zero

Step-by-step explanation:

If the same sum is received for the sale of 20 apples at price p as is received for the sale of 140 apples at price p, then we must have ...

  20p = 140p

  120p = 0 . . . . . . subtract 20p

  p = 0 . . . . . . . . . divide by 120

The price was zero.

Answer:

  • Price was 1 unit of money per each 7 apples and 3 units of money per each extra apple
  • Each woman received 20 unit of money

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the tricky one

I think 'The Seven Apple' is the hint. Let's see what the numbers have to do  with 7:

  • 20 = 7*2 + 6
  • 40 = 7*5 + 5
  • 60 = 7*8 + 4
  • 80 = 7*11 + 3
  • 100 = 7*14 + 2
  • 120 = 7*17 + 1
  • 140 = 7*20 + 0

Assume each '7 apples' sold for a fixed price x and each 'extra' apple sold for a different price y. Since all add up to make same amount, we get:

  • 2x + 6y = 5x + 5y = ... = 20x

Let x = 1, then we get y = 3

<u>So we get the sold price:</u>

  • 20 apples cost: 2*1 + 6*3 = 20
  • 40 apples cost: 5*1 + 5*3 = 20
  • ...
  • 140 apples cost: 20*1 = 20

So each apple woman got 20 units of money for their apples.

Price was 1 unit of money per each 7 and 3 units of money per each extra apple

The gardener will need to buy 60 feet of fencing. Because the square root of 225 if 15, and 15 times 4 is 60. So, 60 is the perimeter of the garden.

Which equation demonstrates the distributive property? A) 2 (5 + 7) = 2 (7 + 5) B) 2 (5 + 7) = 2 × 5 + 2 × 7 C) (2 × 5) × 7 = 2
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property is when you distribute the values in a parenthesis with the outside multiplying factor

2*(5+7)= 2*5 + 2*7

2*(12) = 10 +14

24 = 24

distributive property holds true

Answers:

y = 50

angle AOB = 100

=========================================

Explanation:

Angle x is an inscribed angle that subtends or cuts off minor arc AB. This is the shortest distance from A to B along the circle's edge.

Angle y is also an inscribed angle that cuts off the same minor arc AB. Therefore, it is the same measure as angle x. We can drag point D anywhere you want, and angle y will still be an inscribed angle and still be the same measure as x.

-------------------

Point O is the center of the circle. This is because "circle O" is named by its center point.

Angle AOB is considered a central angle as its vertex point is the center of the circle.

Because AOB cuts off minor arc AB, and it's a central angle, it must be twice that of the inscribed angle that cuts off the same arc.

This is the inscribed angle theorem.

Using this theorem, we can say the following

central angle = 2*(inscribed angle)

angle AOB = 2*(angle x)

angle AOB = 2*50

angle AOB = 100 degrees
