Answer:
K+T=20
$9K + $6T = $168
K is the Kentucky blue grass in pounds
T is the Tall fescue in pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start with the first equation. We don't know the exact amounts of each but we know that there was a total of 20 pounds, and there were 2 types of grass seeds, so we can get that the amount of pounds of Kentucky blue grass(K) and the pounds of Tal Fescue(T) has a sum of 20.
K + T = 20
For the second equation we know that there is a sum of $168 so we'll start with that. Then, we know he paid $9 per pound of K so $9* the value of K is the amount paid for Kentucky blue grass total. This can be represented as 9K. We do the same for T, 6T. Since the sum of the cost of $9T and $6K must be $168 we can write this as:
$9K + $6T = $168
Answer:
The answer is 5:12
Step-by-step explanation:
It is 5:12 because We already know that 7 pens are blue. To find the number of red pens we must subtract 12 - 7 and get 5 as the number of red pens. Now knowing the no. of red pens and total number we can say the ratio of red pens to total no. is 5:12
Answer:
64.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sigma notation is ∑48(1/4)^(n-1).
Upper limit = a1 / (1 - r) where a1 = initial population and r = common ratio.
So it is 48 / (1 - 1/4)
= 48 / 3/4
= 48 * 4/3
= 64.
