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

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

2x + 3y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

obtain the equation in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = - \frac{2}{3} and c = 2

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 2 ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fraction

3y = - 2x + 6 ( add 2x to both sides )

2x + 3y = 6 ← in standard form

katrin [286]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Variance can be said to be a measure of dispersion for a random sample.

When given the variance, we can find the standard deviation.

Standard deviation = √variance

= √pq/n
