Answer:

One avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where t is the number of tomatoes and a is the number of avocados:

4t + 8a = 10

6t + 14a = 17

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2:

12t + 24a = 30

-12t - 28a = -34

Add them together and solve for a:

-4a = -4

a = 1

Plug in 1 as a into one of the equations and solve for t:

4t + 8a = 10

4t + 8(1) = 10

4t + 8 = 10

4t = 2

t = 0.5

So, one avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

What is the area of a circle. Using 3.14 for. A circle with diameter of 8.4 ft.
ira [324]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

First, let's find the radius. The radius is half of the diameter.

8.4/2=4.2

Here's how to find the area of a circle.

Square the radius.

4.2²=17.64

And multiply by pi (3.14 in our case)

17.64(3.14)=55.3896

We round to the nearest tenth, giving us an area of 55.4 ft²

Have a wonderful day! :D

The graph below shows the distance d you run, in miles, as a function of time t, in minutes, during a 5-mile run. Your friend sa
notka56 [123]
The correct answer for this question is this one:

"Y<span>our friend says that the graph is not continuous because it stops at d = 5, so the graph is discrete." Your friend is wrong. The graph is still continuous because the graph shows continuity. The problem only shows the graph at certain t time. This means that the graph can be extended at any t time.</span>

X+2y=-1 and 4x-4y=20 solve by substitution
Illusion [34]

To do this problem you would first need to factor out a variable, which in this case I would want to do the first equation because it is isolated. Now the equations would look like this:

x = -2y - 1

4x - 4y = 20

Since we know that x is now equal to -2y - 1 we can plug it in to the x value in the second equation:

4 (-2y -1) - 4y = 20

-8y -4 - 4y

-12y - 4 = 20

-12y = 24

y = -2

Now that we know the y value plug the y value to one equation to find the x, I will be using the first equation

x + 2(-2) = -1

x - 4 = -1

x = 3

Solutions:

y = -2

x = 3

Find the co-ordinate of the image of the point A (3, -2) when it is reflected on the line x=0 and then rotated about origin thro
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotations are easy when its multiples of 90 degrees; 90,180,270,360. Treat them like they’re a complex number like [x+yi]*i=[-y,xi] so rotating by 90 degrees and 180 is i squared [-1]! So [-3,2] rot90 is [-2,-3].

Reflection about the y=x line is change places. [x.y]=[y,x].

So [-2.-3] reflected about the y=x line is [-2.-3]=[-3.-2],

Compile a list of these transform is best practice technique in this area.
