Answer:

12 Small, 16 Large

Step-by-step explanation:

When you do the math of getting 16 large candles and 12 small candles with respects to the price. You get the math of:

(6×16) + (4×12)

96 + 48

144

16 and 12 will make 28 which proves to be correct as 28 candles were sold

There is a simple algebraic solution to this; a system of equations!

x = small candles and y = large candles

4x + 6y = 144
x + y = 28

Now there are two ways to solve this; substitution and elimination.

Let’s use substitution for practice with the distributive property...

4x + 6y = 144
y = -x + 28

Put the second equation into the first...

4x + 6(-x + 28) = 144
4x - 6x + 168 = 144
-2x + 168 = 144
-2x = -24
x = 12

Plug this into one of the original equations....

12 + y = 28
y = 16

And there you have it! You sold 12 small candles and 16 large candles.

The dimensions of a conical funnel are shown below: A conical funnel is shown with the height of the cone as 7 inches and the ra
Nataly [62]
The first thing we should know in this case is that by definition the flow of liquid is given by:
 Q = V / t
 Where,
 V: volume
 t: time
 The volume of the cone is given by:
 V = (pi * r ^ 2 * h) / (3)
 Where,
 r: radio
 h: height
 Substituting the values we have:
 V = (3.14 * ((3) ^ 2) * 7) / (3)
 V = 65.94 in ^ 3
 We now turn off the time of the flow equation:
 t = V / Q
 Substituting values:
 t = (65.94) / (14)
 t = 4.71 minutes
 Answer:
 It will take for all the liquid in the funnel to pass through the nozzle about:
 t = 4.71 minutes

Write an equation that represents the distance d and Miles traveled by the monarch butterfly and t days
loris [4]

Complete question :

When the monarch butterfly is migrating to the south, it has an average speed of 80 miles per day. Write an equation that shows the realtionship between the number of days (t) and the distance (in miles) it has traveled (d)

Answer:

d = 80t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Average speed = 80 miles per hour

Distance traveled (in miles) = d

Number of days = t

Equation which shows the Relationship between Number of days and distance traveled :

Recall :

Speed = distance / time

Speed = 80 ; distance = d ; time = t

80 = d/t

80 * t = d

d = 80t
