All sides of a square are equal, so set the two equations equal to each other and solve.

5x - 8 = 3x + 14

2x - 8 = 14

2x = 22

x = 11

Form an inequality since it is a square

5x-8=3x+14

you then need to subtract 3x from both sides

2x-8=14

Add 8 to each side

2x=22

divide by 2

x=11

Hope this helped

Round your answer to the nearest hundreth​
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

<em>201.06 sq. ft.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle is found by using the equation:

A = \pi r^{2}

Radius = 1/2 (diameter) = 1/2 (16) = 8

So plug in:

A = \pi (8)^{2}

A = 64\pi

A = 201.06193

Rounded A= 201. 06

Nedra purchased apples and oranges at the grocery store. Apples are $0.55 each and oranges are $0.75 each. If she spent a total
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The two linear equation

x + y = 19.... Equation 1

0.55x + 0.75y = 12.65... Equation 2

Nedra purchased

9 Apples and 11 Oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

Nedra purchased apples and oranges at the grocery store. which two linear equations can be used to find the number of apples and oranges?

Let the number of apples be represented by x

The number of oranges by represented by y.

Hence,

Apples are $0.55 each and oranges are $0.75 each. If she spent a total of $12.65 for 19 pieces of fruit,

Hence:

x + y = 19..... Equation 1

x = 19 - y

$0.55 × x + $0.75 × y = $12.65

0.55x + 0.75y = 12.65.....Equation 2

Hence: we substitute 19 - y for x in Equation 2

0.55(19 - y) + 0.75y = 12.65

10.45 - 0.55y + 0.75y = 12.65

-0.55y+ 0.75y = 12.65 - 10.45

0.20y = 2.2

y = 2.2/0.20

y = 11 oranges

x = 19 - y

x = 19 - 11

x = 8 Apples

1: 14 ft
2: 18
3: 11; 28
4: 8; 96
5: a = 5x3
6: a = 8x8
7: 1x42, 2x21, 3x14, and 6x7. 6x7 probably makes the most sense.
