Answer:

Cherry Pie=$12 per 1

Apple pie= $9 per 1

Let x represent number of Cherry Pies sold.

let y represent number of Apple pie sold

x + y = 20---------------1

12x + 9y = 198---------2

From eqn 1

x=20-y

Substitute into eqn 2

12x + 9y = 198

12(20-y) + 9y=198

240 - 12y + 9y = 198

240 - 3y =198

3y = 240 - 198

3y=42

y=14.

x + y =20

x + 14=20

x=20-14

x=6.

So...

Its means that I SOLD 6 CHERRY PIES AND 14 APPLE PIES

Answer:

You sold 6 cherry pies and 14 apple pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a system of equations problem.

12C + 9A = 198

A + C = 20

A = 20 - C

12C + 9(20 - C) = 198

12C + 180 - 9C = 198

3C + 180 = 198

3C = 18

C = 6

A + 6 = 20

A = 14

What can you divide a2b5 by to get a quotient of 1?
Kitty [74]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a^2b^5

Step-by-step explanation:

Anything divided by itself is 1.

That is, anything multiplied by its reciprocal is 1. This value (the reciprocal of the expression) is called the "multiplicative inverse." Its value is that the product of an expression and its multiplicative inverse is 1, the multiplicative identity element. (Anything times 1 is itself.)

So, to get 1 as a product, multiply by 1/(a^2b^5), which is to say, divide by a^2b^5 to get 1 as a quotient.

<u>Trigonometry</u>

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

  • a is a leg
  • b is another leg
  • c is the hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Identify</u>

<em>a</em> = x + 3

<em>b</em> = x

<em>c</em> = √117

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute [PT]:                                                                                                (x + 3)² + x² = (√117)²
  2. Expand [FOIL]:                                                                                                 x² + 6x + 9 + x² = (√117)²
  3. Combine like terms:                                                                                       2x² + 6x + 9 = (√117)²
  4. Exponents:                                                                                                      2x² + 6x + 9 = 117
  5. [SPE] Subtract 117 on both sides:                                                                    2x² + 6x - 108 = 0
  6. Factor out GCF:                                                                                               2(x² + 3x - 54) = 0
  7. [DPE] Divide 2 on both sides:                                                                         x² + 3x - 54 = 0
  8. Factor Quadratic:                                                                                            (x - 6)(x + 9) = 0
  9. Solve roots/solve <em>x</em>:                                                                                         x = -9, 6

Since we are dealing with positive values, we can disregard the negative root.

∴ x = 6

How can I do this, can you explain me
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with h(t) = -16t^2 + initial height, which here is h(t) = -16t^2 + 1296.  Set this = to zero, which corresponds to the object hitting the ground (h = 0):

0 = -16t^2 + 1296.  Dividing all terms by -16, we get t^2 = 81, whose positive square root is 9.  It takes 9 seconds for the object to hit the ground.
