Answer:

66 carnations and 34 roses

Step-by-step explanation:

.75x + 2.75y = 139

x+ y = 100

im not smart but bear with me:

rewrite the 2nd equation:

x=-y+100

.75(-y+100)+2.75y=139

-.75y+2.75=139-75

2y=64

y=34 ; now substitute this into out 2nd equation

x+y=100

x+ (34) =100

x=100-34

x=66

Sanchez applied 6 fluid Ounces of an herbicide per acre on 300 acres of com. How many gallons
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Sanchez applied 1,800 fluid ounces of herbicide to his 300 acres of corn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's identify what we already know:

1) Sanchez has 300 acres of corn

2) For every 1 acre, Sanchez applies 6 fluid ounces of an herbicide.

So, we need to figure out how many fluid ounces Sanchez used for the entire six acres. We can create a formula for this:

300 acres x 6 fluid ounces = x

x equals total number of fluid ounces. We multiple the number of acres by the fluid ounces, to get 1,800 fluid ounces for the entire 300 acres of corn.

Answer:

The dimensions of the park on the scale drawing are 12 inches by 20 inches

The actual dimensions are given as:

Park = 600 feet by 1000 feet

Swing set = 25 feet by 100 feet

The dimension of the swing set on the scale drawing is given as: 0.5 inch by 2 inches

The above means that, the scale factor (k) is:

--- i.e. divide the scale measurement by the actual measurement

Evaluate both equations

So, we have:

Multiply the scale factor by the dimensions of the park, to get the scale measurement

Hence, the dimensions of the park on the scale drawing are 12 inches by 20 inches
