Answer:

The infielders made a total of 12 outs and outfielders made a total of 14 outs.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a nine-inning game, 20 of a baseball team’s 26 outs were fly balls.

Let x be the total outs made by infielders

Let y be the total outs made by outfielders.

Total ousts were 26 so we have ;

x+y=26 or x=26-y

Given is that 50% of the outs made by infielders and 100% of the outs made by outfielders were fly balls.

We get ;

0.5x+y=20

Substituting the value of x here we het

0.5(26-y)+y=20

13-0.5y+y=20

0.5y=20-13

0.5y=7

y = 14

And x=26-y

=> x=26-14

x = 12

So, infielders made a total of 12 outs of which 50% were fly balls that means 6 were fly balls.

And outfielders made a total of 14 outs of which 100% were fly balls which means 14 fly balls.

Lets check the fly balls count = 6+14=20 (as given)

So, infielders made a total of 12 outs and outfielders made a total of 14 outs.

Pamela and her friend Nicole are each baking apple pies and tarts for a bake sale, using the same recipes. Pamela baked 5 apple
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Each apple pie requires 8 apples, and each apple tart requires 4 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

We see that both Pamela and Nicole bake the same amount of apple pies, but different amounts of apple tarts. Because of this, we can subtract the two to try to figure out the amount of apples for each apple tart. We subtract 68 from 76, giving us 8. Nicole baked 9 apple tarts, while Pamela baked 7, and 9-7=2. So we can bake two apple tarts with 8 apples, so one apple tart requires 4 apples (we divide by 2). Now that we know the amount of apples per each apple tart, we multiply 7 apple tarts that Pamela made by 4 apples, giving us 28. We subtract that from the total amount of apples Pamela used, which was 68, giving us 40. From this we can deduct that 5 apple pies need 40 apples, and we divide by 5, giving us 1 apple pie requires 8 apples.

You make a bar and you take 34 and shade 18. Count the squares not shaded.

Don't take my word on this. I may be wrong.
