Hey there!!
Let us take the price of the redwood as ' x ' and pine as ' y '
Then , we take it into an equation. We get,
50x + 80y = 285 -------------- ( 1 )
80x + 50y = 339 -------------- ( 2 )
Now, multiply the first equation with 8 and the second equation with 5
400x + 640y = 2280
400x + 250y = 1695
Now subtract the second equation from the first
390y = 585
y = 585 / 390
y = $1.5
Now substitute this into any equation
50x + ( 80 ) ( 1.5 ) = 285
50x + 120 = 285
50x = 165
x = 165 / 50
x = $3.3
Redwood = $3.3
Pine = $1.5
Hope helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Your question isn't complete but let me help out based on the information given.
Joshua's recipe for chili requires 2 3/4 pounds of beef. Sondra's recipe for chili requires 2 2/3 pounds of beef.
The pounds of beef required by both of them will be:
= 2 3/4 + 2 2/3
= 2 9/12 + 2 8/12
= 4 17/12
= 4 + 1 5/12
= 5 5/12
The difference in the pounds of beef required by both of them will be:
= 2 3/4 - 2 2/3
= 2 9/12 - 2 8/12
= 1/12
Also, we.can also infer that Joshua recipe for chili requires more pounds of beef than that of Sondra
6.
Put them on order from least to greatest.
5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9
The middle number is the median.
-23.2 I think this is the answer
Your answer will be x=-2.24
Hope this helps...
