Answer:

each notebook costs $2.70

each pack of pencils costs $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

system of equations:

let p = pack of pencils

let n = notebook

3p + 5n = 18

4p + 4n = 16.8

I used the elimination method by multiplying the first equation by 4 and the second equation by -3

4(3p + 5n = 18)  =  12p + 20n = 72

-3(4p + 4n = 16.8)  =  -12p -12n = -50.4

adding the new equations together you get:  8n = 21.6

n = 21.6/8

n = $2.70

solve for 'p':

3p + 5(2.7) = 18

3p + 13.5 = 18

3p = 4.5

p = $1.50

astraxan [27]

Answer:

5.03\frac{rad}{sec}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the angular velocity divide the revolutions by the time

so

\frac{16}{20}=0.8\frac{rev}{sec}

Remember that

1\ rev=2\pi \ rad

Convert rev/sec to rad/sec

0.8\frac{rev}{sec}=0.8*(2\pi)=1.6 \pi\frac{rad}{sec}

assume \pi=3.1416

1.6(3.1416)=5.03\frac{rad}{sec}

What is the answer for this pictures
romanna [79]

Answer:

7 x 3/9 = 21/9 = 2.33

11 x 2/3 = 22/3 = 7.33

4/9 x 3/8 = 4/9 x 3 / 8 = 4/3/8 = 1/6

7/9 x 4/5 = 7 /9  ⋅  4/5 = 28/9/5 = 28/45

1 1/15 x 1/3 = 0.35
