Answer:112 nectarines are needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The math club is baking pies for a bake sale and they would require a number of peaches and nectarines

Let x represent the number of peaches.

Let y represent the number of peaches.

The fruit pie recipe calls for twice as many peaches as nectarines. This is expressed as

y = 2x

if it takes a total of 168 pieces of fruit for all the pies, it means that

x + y = 168 - - -- - - - - - 1

Substituting y = 2x into equation 1, it becomes

x + 2x = 168

3x = 168

x = 168/3 = 56

y = 2x

y = 2×56 = 112

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

26 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Find what length is needed for fencing by finding the perimeter of the land.

Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w

Plug in the length and width:

P = 2l + 2w

P = 2(8) + 2(5)

P = 16 + 10

= 26

So, the length of wire needed is 26 m

For a given triangle it is known that cos A =-0.5, where 0° <br> Based on the information given above, the value of angle(s) A i
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the possible value of A

Now, we should understand that the value of an angle in triangle cannot be more than 180

Also, cosine can only be negative in the second and the 3rd quadrant

So,

arc cos (-0.5) = 120 , 300 , 60

But 60 is not correct as it will give a negative value

300 is not correct also as it is more than the angles present in a triangle

Thus, our answer is 120
