To find the total of what you sold for each package, you'll need to write two equations. Know that x = paper plate packages and y = utensil packages.
First, x + y = 15 shows that there has to be fifteen packages, and 8x + 5y = 90 shows the $ made from selling a certain number of packages.
Next, you can solve by substitution, so change x + y = 15 to y = 15 - x.
To find our x, substitute the y in 8x + 5y = 90 to get
8x + 5(15 - x) = 90
Distribute: 8x + 75 - 5x = 90
Combine the X's and subtract the 75: 3x = 15
Divide the 3: x = 5
Now with our x, we can put 5 into the original equation x + y = 15 to get 5 + y = 15. Subtracting the 5, we get y = 10.
So, you have delivered 5 paper plate packages and 10 utensil packages.
Answer:
Unclear.
To find the perimeter you need all three sides of the triangle. You have only given two.
All you need to do is add up all three sides and you have your perimeter.
Formula: <u>P=a+b+c</u>
The sum of 5 consecutive odd integers is 145. These are the other 4 consecutive odd numbers. Now if we add all of these up we will get this : 25 + 27 + 29 + 31 + 33 = 145.
Hope I helped! ☺☼
Take it and divide it by 5, or you can multiply it by .2
A/B : 4/9 = 12/B
cross multiply
(4)(B) = (9)(12)
4B = 108
B = 108/4
B = 27
P = 4a...where a is the length of one side
P = 4(27)
P = 108 yds <=== perimeter of square B
