Answer:
Almonds cost $8 per pound and Cashews cost $10 per pound.
Assuming pounds of Almonds are denoted as a and Cashews are c, the formula will be:
8a + 10c = 60
Only Cashews:
This means that Almonds would be zero.
8(0) + 10c = 60
10c = 60
c = 60/10
c = 6 pounds of cashews
Only Almonds
8 * a + 10(0) = 60
8a = 60
a = 60/8
a = 7.5 pounds of almonds
A mixture of both.
We can use the formula above to calculate how many of each she can buy but she cannot buy more than 7.5 almonds or more than 6 cashews as she does not have enough money on her.
Assuming she wanted to buy 5 pounds of almonds, she would be able to buy:
8 * 5 + 10c = 60
40 + 10c = 60
10c = 60 - 40
c = 20/10
c = 2 pounds of cashews
Answer: Hello this is my first time answering!
DA= 4.5
CB=4.5
XY=9
If YZ=8 then CD=4
Perimeter of trapezoid ABCD=19
Perimeter of trapezoid WXYZ=38
Step-by-step explanation:
I am almost positive the scale is 0.5/1 this means that for DA it would be 4.5. Of course, if DA was 4.5 then so would CB. Everything is half of the second trapezoid.
Thanks!
X=10 and X=3/4 basically it’s whatever X equals to make the inside the parentheses equal zero. So if I were to plug 10 into the first parentheses you’d have 10-10 which equals zero. Also the zero has to the the opposite sign of what’s in the parentheses. So if -10 is in the parentheses then the zero has to be the opposite so positive 10.
I don’t know how to answer this problem sorry
