Answer:

$6

Step-by-step explanation:

B- 3P+2C=$41

C-1P+2C=$29

since they both bought at least 1 popcorn and 2 candy you can just subtract 29 from 41. you get 12 which equals the other 2 popcorns that ben bought

12/2=6

since you need to find the price of 1 popcorn you have to divide 12 by 2

What is the probability that a point chosen at random in the given figure will be inside the larger square and outside the small
liraira [26]

Answer:

  • 51/100

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The probability that a point chosen at random in the given figure will be inside the larger square and outside the smaller square</em> is equal to the ratio of the area of interest to the total area:

<em>P(inside larger square and outside smaller square)</em> = area of interest / total area

<em>P(inside larger square and outside smaller square)</em> = area inside the larger square and outside the smaller square / area of the larger square

<u>Calculations:</u>

<u />

1. <u>Area inside the larger square</u>: side² = (10 cm)² = 100 cm²

2. <u>Area inside the smaller square </u>= side² = (7cm)² = 49 cm²

3. <u>Area inside the larger square and outside the smaller square</u>

  • 100 cm² - 49 cm² = 51 cm²

4.<u> P (inside larger square and outside smaller squere)</u>

  • 51 cm² / 100 cm² = 51/100

Given the triangle below, what is the measure of x to the nearest foot?
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

18 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right angled ; we could use trigonometry ;

Using the angle , 40° ; adjacent side, = 14 feets ; hypotenus = x

Cos θ = Adjacent / hypotenus

Cos 40 = 14 / x

0.7660444 = 14 / x

0.7660444x = 14

x = 14 / 0.7660444

x = 18.27

= 18 ( nearest foot)

Point Q'Q ′ Q, prime is the image of Q(0,6)Q(0,6)Q, left parenthesis, 0, comma, 6, right parenthesis under the translation (x,y)
Marina86 [1]

Q is located at (0,6)

The translation rule is (x,y) \to (x+7,y-5) which says to add 7 to the x coordinate and subtract 5 from the y coordinate. Doing that to (0,6) moves it to (7,1) which is where point Q' is located.

In other words, if you shift point Q(0,6) seven units to the right and five units down, then it arrives at Q ' (7,1)

<h3>Answer: (7, 1)</h3>

Kellen bought new fish for her home aquarium. She bought 4 turquoise guppies and 3 sunburst tetra GLO fish and spent a total of
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: A single turquoise guppy costs $3.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use "x" to represent the amount a single turquoise is sold and use "y" to represent that of the Glo fish.

Since Kellen bought 4 guppies and 3 glo fishes for $41.73:

4x + 3y = 41.73 --------eqn 1

Similarly, Danielle purchased 3 guppies and 5 Glo fish for $56.02:

Therefore 3x + 5y = $56.02 -----eqn2

The 2 equations are;

4x + 3y = 41.73 (eqn 1)

3x + 5y = 56.02 (eqn 2)

We then solve the simultaneous equations using substitution method:

From eqn 1,

4x + 3y = 41.73

4x = 41.73 - 3y

x = (41.73 - 3y)/4

Substitute x for (41.73 - 3y)/4 in eqn2.

3[(41.73 - 3y)/4 + 5y = 56.02

11y + 125.19 = 224.08

11y =98.89

y = 98.89/11

y = $8.99

So, 1 Glo fish costs $8.99

Then, substitute "y" for 8.99 in equation 1

4x + (3×8.99) = 41.73

4x + 26.97 = 41.73

4x = 41.73 - 26.97

4x = 14.76

x = 14.76/4

x = $3.69

Therefore 1 turquoise guppy costs $3.69

Factorize the expression below pls help giving brainliest
vekshin1

Answer:

See answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

2b(2ab)² - a(2b²)² = XaY³(z - b)

2b(2ab)(2ab) - a(2b^2)(2b^2) = XaY^3(z-b)

8a^2b^3 - 4ab^4 = XaY^3(z - b)

4ab^3(2a-b) = XaY^3(z - b)

X = 4

y = b

z = 2a
