Answer: There are 152 apples.

The explanation is shown below:

- You need to write the following three equations, where a is the the number of apples, p is the number of pears and o is the number of oranges:

1) a+p=184

2) a+o=248

3) o=3p

-  You must substitute the equation 3) into the equation 2):

 a+3p=248

- Now, you need to solve for p in the equation 1) and then you must substitute it into a+3p=248:

p=184-a

a+3(184-a)=248

- Solve for a, as following:

a+552-3a=248\\-2a=-304\\a=\frac{-304}{-2}\\a=152

- Therefore, there are 152 apples.

Find the slope of the line that passes
lesya692 [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Here, given;

The points are; (0,-2) and (5,3).

Now, simply use slope formula.

slope(m) =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

<u>Put</u><u> </u><u>all values</u><u>. </u>

<u>m = \frac{3 + 2}{5 - 0}</u>

<u>Simplify</u><u> </u><u>them to get answer</u><u>. </u>

<u>m =  \frac{5}{5}</u>

<u>Therefore the</u><u> </u><u>slope is</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>.</u>

Solve for x, given that the polygons are similar
Nata [24]
In the question, we are given two polygons, and we are told that they are similar. Well, first, we can set up a proportion using the given sides and the side that we need to find. A suitable proportion would be \frac{2x-14}{60} = \frac{8}{24}. Now, in order to solve for x we cross multiply. This gives us 48x-336=480. Next, we add 336 to both sides. This gives us 48x=816, and when we divide both sides by 48, we get that \boxed{x=17}. Hope this helped!

5 What is the range of y = -x2 - 2x + 3?<br> Ax&lt;4<br> B x2-4<br> c y&lt;4<br> Dy2-4
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

y\leq 4

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=-x^{2}-2x+3

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex is a maximum

The vertex is the point (h,k)

The range of the function is the interval (-∞,k]

so

y\leq k

Convert the quadratic equation in vertex form

Factor -1 leading coefficient

y=-(x^{2}+2x)+3

Complete the square

y=-(x^{2}+2x+1)+3+1

y=-(x^{2}+2x+1)+4

Rewrite as perfect squares

y=-(x+1)^{2}+4

The vertex is the point (-1,4)

therefore

The range is y\leq 4
