Answer:

Chocolate chip dough = $12

Gingerbread cookie dough = $17

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two variables in this problem, setting up a system of equations and using the elimination method will help us find the cost for each package of cookie dough.  Based on Ryan's sales of 6 packages of chocolate chip and 12 packages of gingerbread for $276, the first equation is:

6c + 12g = 276

Since Shawna sold 8 chocolate chip and 3 gingerbread for a total of $147.00, the second equation is:

8c + 3g = 147

Using the elimination method, we will need to multiply the second equation by a factor of -4 in order to eliminate the variable 'g':

-4(8c + 3g = 147) = -32c - 12g = -588

Add the two equations:

6c + 12g = 276

+ <u> -32c - 12g = -588</u>

-26c = -312  or c = $12

Plug the value of 'c' into the first equation:

6(12) + 12g = 276 or 72 + 12g = 276 or g = $17

A truck has a force of 2000 newtons and is moving 10 miles per hour. How much mass does the truck have?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Force= Mass×Accelaraion

F=m×a

But as The unit of accelaration is given miles per hour and the SI is meters per second sqaure we have to convert 10mph to m/s²

Thus, we have 10mph = 4.47 meters per second square. (i converted using scientific calculator)

So now we have,

2000N= m×4.47m/s²

= 2000/4.47m/s²=m

= 447.42

Thus the mass of the object is 447.42 (i am not sure of units)

Identify the trinomial that is a perfect square. 81x^2 − 70x 16 64x^2 − 90x 25 81x^2 − 72x 16 64x^2 − 70x 25
Vilka [71]
Hmm
(a+b)^2=(a+b)(a+b)=a^2+2ab+b^2

basically
for
ax^2+bx+c
it is a perfect trinomial when
b=2(√a)(√c)
remember to take both positive and negative roots into consideration
because
(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 and
(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2

see each

first one
-70=2(9)(4)
-70=72
false

second
-90=2(8)(5)
-90=80
false

third
-72=(9)(4)
-72=72
false
but, the last one could be negative
(9x-4)^2 is factor
that is the answer


the answer is 81x^2-72x+16
