Let w bet the number of white cars and y the numbers of yellow cars.
"Rafael counted a total of 40 white and yellow cars" So w+y = 40.
"There were 9 times as many white cars as yellow cars" So 9Y = W
We get the system:
w+y=40 (1)
9y=w (2)
In equation (1), let's replace w by it's value from equation (2) since w=9y.
We get: 9y+y = 40
10y=40
y=4
So there's 4 yellow cars.
In equation (1), let's replace y by it's value
w+4=40
w=40-4
w=36
Rafael counted 36 white cars.
You can re-check your answer:
4+36=40 (w+y=40)
9*4=36 (9y=w)
The answer has been approved.
Hope this Helps! :)
Answer: Each flower costs $0.38.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 dozen = 12 units
Flowers in each tray = 3 dozen = 3 x 12 = 36
Flowers in 20 trays = 20 x 36 = 720
Price of 20 trays = $ 273.60
Price of each flower = (Price of 20 trays ) ÷ (Flowers in 20 trays)
= 273.60 ÷ 720
= $ 0.38
Hence, each flower costs $0.38.
3+3+4+3 im sure this is the answer just double chek
582.74 square inches of glass is required to construct the tank
Step-by-step explanation:
Base dimensions= 22 x 12 inches
Volume of the fish tank = 3960 cubic inches
Volume = l x w x h
3960 = 22 x 12 x h
h = 3960 /(22 x 12)
h = 3960/462
h = 8.57 inches
The glass used = lateral surface area of the rectangular prism
= 2(lh + wl)
= 2(188.57 + 102.8)
= 2(291.37)
= 582.74 square inches
582.74 square inches of glass is required to construct the tank
8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1
8 = 40320
