Answer:



Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of buttons on shirts and y represent the number of buttons on jackets.

If 36 shirts and 42 jackets contain 842 buttons. This implies:

36x + 42y = 842 (1)

If 66 shirts and 77 jackets contain 137 buttons. This implies:

66x + 77y = 137 (2)

If you take the first equation: 36x + 42y = 842 and isolate the x, then you will have x = (842 - 42y) / 36

If you substitute x into the second equation:

66((842-42y)/36) + 77y = 137

→ 11(842-42y)/6 + 77y = 137

→ 11(842-42y) + 6(77y) = 137(6)

→ 9262 - 462y + 462y = 822

→ 9262 = 822 which reveals that the equations do not have a solution

Pizza planet is running a sell 3 pizzas for $16.50. What is the unit rate for one pizza?
8090 [49]

Answer:

$5.30

Step-by-step explanation:

$16.50 = (3)p

[p = pizza]

To solve you have to separate the p by removing the (x3)

1) Divide both sides of the equation by 3

[ 16.50 / 3 = p}

2) Divide 16.50 by 3

[5.30]

3) 5.30 = p

The skittles jar has a radius of 3.5 cm and a height of 11.5 cm. using the two given boxes for reference what would be a good es
Bond [772]

C) 1059 skittles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first container held 192 skittles. Knowing the dimension of the container we can calculate the volume of 192 skittles:

Volume of 192 skittles = 5 × 4 × 4 = 80 cm³

Volume of 1 skittle = 80 / 192 = 0.42 cm³

We also know that the second container held 258 skittles. Knowing the dimension of the container we can calculate the volume of 258 skittles:

Volume of 258 skittles = 12 × 3 × 3 = 108 cm³

Volume of 1 skittle = 108 / 258 = 0.42 cm³

We found that the volume of  1 skittle is equal to 0.42 cm³. Now we calculate the volume of the skittles jar:

volume of cylinder = π × radius² × height

volume of skittles jar = 3.14  × 3.5² × 11.5 = 442 cm³

Now we can calculate the number of skittles in the jar:

number of skittles in the jar = volume of the jar / skittle volume

number of skittles in the jar = 442 / 0.42 = 1052 which is close the C) 1059
