Total weight = 12
weight of box =3
12 - 3 = 9 lbs of candles
So how many times does .75 or 3/4 go into 9? 
9/.75= 12, so 12 candles were shipped

12 candles were shipped. x × 3/4 = 9 + 3.
X = 12

Write the equation in standard form for the circle with radius 9 centered at the origin.
amid [387]
The standard form of the equation of a circle of radius r, with (assuming centre h, k) is given as:

(X-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

As we are required to write an equation in standard form for the circle with radius 9 centred at the origin.
Centre(h,k)=(0,0), r=9

Substituting these values into the standard form of the equation of a circle given above:

(X-0)^2 + (y-0)^2 = 9^2
X^2 + y^2 =81

The standard form is x^2 + y^2 =81

I’m pretty sure this is right

How much material, in square inches, is needed to make the flag? square inches if the material costs $0.15 per square inch, how
lorasvet [3.4K]

The amount needed to purchase materials needed to cover the area of the triangular flag is: $54.

<h3>What is the Area of a Triangle?</h3>

Area of a triangle = 1/2(bh)

Given the dimensions of the flag as the following:

base (b) = 18 in.

height (h) = √(41² - 9²) = 40 in.

Area of the flag = 1/2(18)(40) = 360 in.²

Cost of material needed = (360)(0.15) = $54

Solve for a. 7a-2b=5a+b
velikii [3]
8.5b.
7a= 5a +3b
-5a -5a
2a = 3b
/2
a= 1.5b
Solve by substitution and you get;
8.5b=8.5b
Because of the lack of constants in the equation there isn't a definite answer.
