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?

<u>Cameron and Rebecca purchased 7 tomatoes, 3 carrots and 2 broccoli.</u>

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

<u>Cameron and Rebecca purchased 7 tomatoes, 3 carrots and 2 broccoli.</u>

It takes 16 minutes for 9 people to paint 8 walls.how many does it take 4 people to paint 6 walls
luda_lava [24]
The things you can apply to complete this job is workers and time. The job being accomplished is painted walls. This problem defines two jobs. The rate for each of the jobs will be the same. The first job rate is: R=(7 wkr)•(42 min)/(6 walls)R= 49 wkr-min/walls or 49 worker-minutes per wall. This means one worker can paint one wall in 49 minutes. If you think about this job if 7 workers take 42 minutes to do 6 walls it will only take them 7 minutes to do one wall. And it will take one person 7 times as long to do a job as 7 people working together.  This first job rate equals the second job rate R=(8 wkr)•(t )/(8 walls)R=1 t wkr/wall where t is the time to do the second job. Setting the two rates equal to each other and solving for t. t=49 minutes It makes sense if one worker can paint one wall in 49 minutes then 8 workers can paint 8 walls in the same time.

The product of 5 and a number n is at least 25
Crazy boy [7]
5n≥25
and if you divide 5 on both sides, n≥5 (I don't know if you are supposed to solve or simply put it in the equation form).

Product refers to multiplication. so 5 and n are being multiplied in the equation.
However, instead of using an equal sign, the sign for "greater than or equal to" must be used. "At least" is a term equivalent to "greater than or equal to".

matrenka [14]
Hello!

First you find what numbers give you the same perimeter

9 + 9 + 6 + 6 = 30

5 + 5 + 8 + 8 = 26

7 + 7 + 4 + 4 = 22

6 + 6 + 8 + 8 = 28

The choice that has the same perimeter is D

The answer is D) 6 centimeters by 8 centimeters

Hope this helps!
