Let c represents the cost of a candy apple and b represents the cost of a bag of peanuts.
Darius can purchase 3 candy apples and 4 bags of peanuts. So his total cost would be 3c + 4b. Darius can buy 3 candy apples and 4 bags of peanuts in $11.33,so we can write the equation as:
3c + 4b = 11.33 (1)
Darius can purchase 9 candy apples and 5 bags of peanuts. So his total cost would be 9c + 5b. Darius can buy 9 candy apples and 5 bags of peanuts in $23.56,so we can write the equation as:
9c + 5b = 23.56 (2)
<span>Darius decides to purchase 2 candy apples and 3 bags of peanuts. The total cost in this case will be 2c + 3b. To find this first we need to find the cost of each candy apple and bag of peanuts by solving the above two equations.
Multiplying equation 1 by three and subtracting equation 2 from it, we get:
3(3c + 4b) - (9c + 5b) = 3(11.33) - 23.56
9c + 12b - 9c - 5b = 10.43
7b = 10.43
b = $1.49
Using the value of b in equation 1, we get:
3c + 4(1.49) = 11.33
3c = 5.37
c = $ 1.79
Thus, cost of one candy apple is $1.79 and cost of one bag of peanuts is $1.49.
So, 2c + 3b = 2(1.79) + 3(1.49) = $ 8.05
Therefore, Darius can buy 2 candy apples and 3 bags of peanuts in $8.05</span>
Answer: 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of red balloons = 17
Number of purple balloons = 11
Number of orange balloons = 3
Number of green balloons = 1
Number of yellow balloons = 2
Total number of balloons = 34
The probability that a randomly selected balloon will be red will be:
= Number of red balloons/Total number of balloons
= 17/34
= 1/2
Answer: 8 1/3 hours or 500 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Keep in mind that there are 100 centimeters in a meter.
The snail moves at a pace of 12 cm/h, and needs to go 100 cm. You can just divide 100/12 to get 8 1/3, which is how many hours (groups of 12 cm) it takes for the snail to travel 100 cm (1 meter).
If necessary, you can also multiply 8 1/3 by 60 to get the number of minutes the snail takes. 8 times 60 is 480, and 1/3 of an hour is 20, so add 480+20 to get 500 minutes.
8 - 3 = 5 Slope formula numerator
2 - 0 = 2 Slope formula denominator
5/2 = 2.5
