$14.83
Because you have to divide 3.98 by 5 and then multiply that by 18 and you would then round to get $14.83

We can find the original value of the apple by dividing 5 by 3.98. Now we know that one pound of apple costs $0.80. WAIT. That's not it!!!
Now we can multiply that value by 18 to get the cost, which is $14.40. Pretty cheap, if you ask me.

Answer:

1) B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a prism is h * l * w

So, if we do that we get 25/18

2) B

Lets say we talk the top surface, there are 30 cubes on that surface and we want to find the volume of one cube so we are going to divide by 50. we take the measurements which are 5/6 and 1 for the top surface and we multiply. We get an answer of 5/6 now we divide by 30

So...

5/6 * 1/30 (We switched the numbers around because we are dividing.)

5/6 * 1/30 = 5/180 now we can simplify this to 1/36.

5 and 180 are a factor of 5

Hope this helps

A car has a gasoline

Delvig [45]

Answer:

Yes, look at the explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate how many miles a car can drive with 1 gallon: 285 miles ÷ 10 = 28.5 miles with one gallon
Divide 500 by 28.5 to calculate how many gallons are needed: 500 ÷ 28.5 ≈ 17.543 - Therefore yes, it is possible because the car uses about 17.543 gallons of gasoline for 500 miles.

Hey if you could help me with this it'd mean a lot I can't figure it out

Blababa [14]

Answer:

L = 12 S = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

L+S=17

3L+2S=46

Multiply the first equation by -2

-2L -2S = -34

Then add it to the second equation

-2L -2S = -34

3L+2S=46

------------------

L = 12

Now we can find S

L+S = 17

12 + S = 17

Subtract 12 from each side

S = 17-12

S = 5

A dragon likes to eat red peppers and green peppers because they help him breathe fire. If the dragon eats 2 red peppers, he can

N76 [4]

it's 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so if 2 peppers is 25 meters long, you just divide 25 by 2 to get how many peppers the dragon breathes as 1 pepper. So then you get 12.5, And if you do that with the green peppers, you get 1.5. So, the dragon ate 3 green peppers, so it's 12.5 x 3 , aka. 12.5+12.5+12.5. That's 37.5, and if you do 1.5x5 for the green peppers, it's 7.5, And now you add 37.5+7.5, and you get 45.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a great question!

The first thing we want to do here is to graph the system of " inequalities " -

$\begin{bmatrix}2x+9y\le \:100\\ 9x+y\le \:54\end{bmatrix}$

As x is ≥ 0, respectively y ≥ 0, it makes things a lot simpler, as it kind of restricts us to quadrant 1, but not entirely.

First change each inequality to " slope - intercept " form, as such -

$2x + 10y \leq 100,\\10y \leq 100 - 2x,\\y \leq - 1 / 5x + 10\\----------\\9x + y \leq 54,\\y \leq - 9x + 54$

The graphed solutions would be in the attachment. I have colored the region with which the two intersect, and the fact that we are limited to quadrant 1. In this colored region there are 3 major points, ( 5, 9 ), ( 0, 10 ), and ( 6, 0 ). We have to determine which of these are are maximum points, as the minimum are the same. Substitute these values ( ( 5, 9 ), ( 0, 10 ), and ( 6, 0 ) ) into the equation f( x, y ) = 10x + 4y,

$f ( x, y ) = 10( 5 ) + 4( 9 ),\\f ( x, y ) = 86 -\\f ( x, y ) = 10( 0 ) + 4( 10 ),\\f ( x, y ) = 40 -\\f ( x, y ) = 10( 6 ) + 4( 0 ),\\f ( x, y ) = 60$

( 5, 9 ) resulted in the greatest amount, 86. That would make it our maximum point -

<u><em>Solution = Option A</em></u>
