Answer:

Number of apples remaining with him will be 2 when we combined both the conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of apples Jack Picked =76

Number of apples sold to Juanita = 4y

Number of apples sold to Sylvia = 3t

We need to find the Number of apples remaining with him.

Solution:

To find the Number of apples remaining with him we will Subtract Number of apples sold to Juanita and Number of apples sold to Sylvia from Number of apples Jack Picked.

framing in equation form we get;

Number of apples remaining with him = 76-4y-3t

Now Given:

Condition 1 : y ≥ 15 and t = 2

So we can assume y =16 and t =2

Number of apples remaining with him = 76-4\times16-3\times2 = 76 -64 -6 = 6

Also we can say that y =17 and t =2

Number of apples remaining with him = 76-4\times17-3\times2 = 76 -68 -6 = 2

So the Given data is Insufficient to find the Number of apples remaining with him.

Condition 2 : y = 17

Number of apples remaining with him = 76-4\times17-3t = 76 -68 -3t = 8-3t

Since value of t is not given we can say that;

Given data is insufficient to find the number of apples remaining with him.

Condition 3 : Combined i.e y = 17 and y≥ 15 t = 2

Number of apples remaining with him = 76-4\times17-3\times2 = 76 -68 -6 = 2

Hence we can say that Number of apples remaining with him will be 2 when we combined both the conditions.

Simplify the polynomials by combining like terms 3x 5x 4x
lukranit [14]
Hello! Combining like terms is just a fancy way of saying add all these numbers together. As long as numbers have the same variable (in this case x) and the same exponent (they don't have any in this case), you can add them together like normal. So! 3x + 5x +4x is the same as 3+5+4. Your simplified polynomial is 12x. Good luck with the math homework!

PL has endpoints P(4, −6) and L(−2, 1). The segment is translated using the mapping (x, y) → (x 5, y). What are the coordinates
cestrela7 [59]

The coordinates of P' is (9, -6) and L' is (3, -1).

<h2>Given that</h2>

PL has endpoints P(4, −6) and L(−2, 1).

The segment is translated using the mapping (x, y) → (x + 5, y).

<h3>We have to determine</h3>

What are the coordinates of P’ and L’?

<h3>According to the question</h3>

PL has endpoints P(4, −6) and L(−2, 1).

The segment is translated using the mapping (x, y) → (x + 5, y).

The coordinates of point P after translation using mapping is,

\rm P(x, \ y) - P'(x+5, y)\\&#10;\\&#10;P(4, -6) - P'(4+5, \ -6)\\&#10;\\&#10;P(4, -6) - P'(9, -6)\\

And the coordinates of point L after translation using mapping is,

\rm L(x, \ y) - L'(x+5, y)\\\\L(-2, 1) - L'(-2+5, \ -1)\\\\L(4, -6) - L'(3, -1)\\

Hence, The coordinates of P' is (9, -6) and L' is (3, -1).

Need help on 8,9,10,11 and 12
GalinKa [24]
8) 12 is 30% of some number, which we'll call x. We can write the percent as a decimal and solve for x
0.3x=12  \\  \\ x = 40.
The answer is 40.

9) 45% of 20 is 0.45(20)=9.

The answer is 9.

10) 18 is (18/30 = 60)% of 30.

The answer is 60%.

11) 56 is 80% of some number x. We write 
0.8x=56  \\  \\ x = 70.

The answer is 70.

12) If the total cost on an item that costs $4.00 is $4.32, then the tax is 32¢. We want to find the percent of the total 4 that is .32. \frac{0.32}{4} = 0.08=8%.

The answer is 8%.
