The total weight of 4 dolls and 3 plush toys is 11 oz

Let's say the dolls weigh 2 oz and the plush toys weigh 1 oz

2-4= 8 1x3 =3

8+3=11

Then 2 dolls =4 and 3 plush toys= 3

Weight should be 7oz

Plus the weight of the box 1

Total= 8 not 10

kati45 [8]

All squares are equal sides.Let X be the side of a square.\\Area of square,A = x^2

Here a tile is a square of side length 'x'. The following  polynomial represents,

(x - 4) represents "the width of the new tile" (because 4 inches cut from the tile)

4x represents "the area removed from the tile" (since one side of removed tile is 'x' and other is 4 inches.)

x2  represents "area of original tile" of side equal to 'x'

x represents "the length of the new tile" (since length of new tile  is not reduced. Length =x and breadth is x-4

The owner of a grocery store finds she can sell about 982 gallons of milk in a week if she prices it at $2.99 per gallon. If she
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

  • g = -1110p +4300.9
  • 804 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Price is the independent variable, so the data we are given can be written as ...

  (price, gallons) = (2.99, 982) and (2.79, 1204)

Using the 2-point form of the equation for a line, we have ...

  g = (g2 -g1)/(p2 -p1)(p -p1) +g1

  g = (1204 -982)/(2.79 -2.99)(p -2.99) +982

  g = -1110(p -2.99) +982 = -1110p +4300.9

  g = -1110p +4300.9

__

b) When p = 3.15, the predicted sales volume is ...

  g = -1110(3.15) +4300.9 = 804.4

Weekly sales are predicted to be 804 gallons at a price of $3.15.

What is 4[2(21-17)+3]
vagabundo [1.1K]
To solve this problem, we should understand how order of operations works. Perhaps the best way to show you this would be solving the problem with all of the work clearly labeled?

=4[2(21-17)+3]    Original Problem
=4[2(4)+3]           Solved the Parentheses
=4[8+3]                Multiplied the 2 and 4
=4[11]                   Added the 8 and 3
=44                       Multiplied the 4 and 11

An easy way to remember this is PEMDAS, which is an acronym for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, and Addition/Subtraction. Although it will not apply in this scenario (because we have brackets), it will come in handy for many others like this.

Using all of the information above, we can conclude that this expression equals 4.
