Shea bought 13.5 pounds of corn
c = pounds of corn
b = pounds of beans
Here’s what we know:
c(0.99) + b(0.45) = 18.09
c + b = 24
Solve the second equation for c in terms of b
c = 24-b
Substitute that expression for c in our first equation to get a numerical solution for b:
0.99 (24-b) + 0.45b = 18.09
23.76 - 0.99b + 0.45b = 18.09
-0.54b = -5.67
b = 10.5
Substitute that value to get a numerical value for c:
c = 24 - b
c = 24 - 10.5
c = 13.5
Check the math:
0.99(13.5) + 0.45(10.5) =
13.365 + 4.725 = 18.09
Answer:
a book is something you read a notebook is something you write in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
n = -45
Step-by-step explanation:
(n-5) /10 = -5
Multiply each side by 10
(n-5) /10 *10= -5*10
n-5 = -50
Add 5 to each side
n-5+5 = -50+5
n = -45
The 6 terms of the series are
... 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10
The sum of them is 75.
