Answer:

Cameron and Rebecca are organizing a lunch for their friends. Within the dishes to be served, they will prepare a tomato, carrot and broccoli salad. The number of tomatoes and carrots are 10-partners and the total amount of vegetables is 12. If we increase the number of broccoli by three and decrease the number of tomatoes by two, the amount of tomatoes and broccoli will also be 10-partners. What is the number of tomatoes, carrots and broccoli bought by Cameron and Rebecca?

Cameron and Rebecca purchased 7 tomatoes, 3 carrots and 2 broccoli.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of tomatoes = x

Number of carrots = 10 - x

Number of broccoli = y

System of Equations:

x + 10 - x + y = 12

y = 12 - 10

y = 2

x - 2 + y + 3 = 10 (If we increase the number of broccoli by three and decrease the number of tomatoes by two, the amount of tomatoes and broccoli will also be 10-partners)

x + 1 + y = 10

x + y = 9

y = 9 - x

Substitution of y:

x + 10 - x + y = 12

x + 10 - x + 9 - x = 12

-x + 19 = 12

-x = 12 - 19

x = 7 ⇒ 10 - x = 3

Answer:

$C\approx 5.14$

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is the distance around a complete circle: in essence, the perimeter of a circle. The formula to find the circumference of a circle is the following:

$C=(d)(\pi)$

Where (d) represents the diameter, the largest cord that can be drawn in a circle, it goes from one end to another, passing through the center of the circle. The parameter ( $\pi$ ) represents the number (3.1415...). However, one is given a semicircle, thus one must divide the result in two, and then add the value of the diameter to find the perimeter of the given object. Therefore the equation for the circumference of this circle is as follows:
