3f+2g=30 and f+2g=26
tatuchka [14]
3f + 2g = 30 . . .(1)
f + 2g = 26 . . . .(2)

(1) - (2) => 2f = 4 => f = 4/2 = 2

From (2), 2 + 2g = 26 => 2g = 26 - 2 = 24 => g = 24/2 = 12

Therefore, f = 2 and g = 12

An account earns simple interest. Find the principal.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

$ 900

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest = Principle * Time * Rate / 100

Now by substituting :

27 = Principle * 2 * 1.5 / 100

Principle = 27 * 100 / 2 * 1.5

Principle = 2700 / 3

So Principle = $ 900

Hope it helps

Otto used 5.5 cups of whole wheat flour and x cups of white flour in the recipe. What is the equation that can
timurjin [86]

This situation of the recipe can be represented as y=x+5.5 and it is expected that x is ≥ 0 and y is ≥ 5.5.

<h3>What is the equation for this situation?</h3>

It is known the total amount of flour (y) is equivalent to the total amount of whole wheat flour (5.5) added to the total white flour (x). Therefore, the equation is:

y = x + 5.5

The possible values are

x = It is expected x is equalthan 0 or greater to it since the minimum amount of white flour that can be added is 0.

y = It is expected y is equal than 5.5 or greater to it since even if no

white flour is added the minimum total is 5.5.
