Answer:
One avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a system of equations where t is the number of tomatoes and a is the number of avocados:
4t + 8a = 10
6t + 14a = 17
Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2:
12t + 24a = 30
-12t - 28a = -34
Add them together and solve for a:
-4a = -4
a = 1
Plug in 1 as a into one of the equations and solve for t:
4t + 8a = 10
4t + 8(1) = 10
4t + 8 = 10
4t = 2
t = 0.5
So, one avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50
Answer:
No there cannot be.
Step-by-step explanation:
In explaining this question, I would like us to take into account who the barber is,
" the barber is the one who shaves all those, and those only, who do not shave themselves".
This barber cannot be in existence because who would shave him? If he should shave himself then there is a violation of the rule which says he shaves only those who do not shave themselves. If he shaves himself then he ceases to be a barber. And if he does not shave himself then he happens to be under those who must be shaved by the barber, because of what the rule says. But then he is the barber.
This lead us to a contradiction.
Neither is possible so there is no such barber.
85 x 3 = 255
first 2 test grades were 81 and 86:
81 + 86 = 167
Need to find the 3rd to have exact average 85:
255 - 167 = 88
So her 3rd test needs to make 88 to make average of 85
Double check: 81 + 86 + 88 = 255 = 85 + 85 + 85
Answer 38.6
Step-by-step explanation:
21 x .84 = 17.64
