$Let \: x, y \: (x,y>0) \: be \: the \: number \: of \: fruits \: the \: small \: and \: large \: baskets \: hold \: respectively \\ We \: have \: a \: system \: of \: equations:2x + 4y = 60 \: \wedge \: 2x + 10y = 132 \\ \Leftrightarrow x = 6 \: \wedge \: y = 12 \\ \Rightarrow The \: small \: baskets \: each \: include \: 6 \: fruits \\ \Rightarrow The \: large \: baskets \: each \: include \: 12 \: fruits$

A street that is 360 feet long is covered in snow city workers are using a snow plow to clear the street a tire on the snow plow

belka [17]

Answer:

Radius of tire=0.58 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

as we know that the

Circumference of the tire=2*3.14*r

and it needs to rotate 30 times to cover the street distance of 360 feet

So, the below equation would be used to find the radius of tire in the meters

360/3.28084=30*2*3.14*r

r=0.5824203822 meters

Hence

$Radius=0.58 meter$

Calculate the lengths of the 2 unlabeled sides...

elixir [45]

Since it’s a square we know that GJ has to be the same as GH. To find a diagonal you would do a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Which gives us about 9.19. So GJ=6.5 and JH=9.2
