Answer:

K+T=20

$9K + $6T = $168

K is the Kentucky blue grass in pounds

T is the Tall fescue in pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start with the first equation. We don't know the exact amounts of each but we know that there was a total of 20 pounds, and there were 2 types of grass seeds, so we can get that the amount of pounds of Kentucky blue grass(K) and the pounds of Tal Fescue(T) has a sum of 20.

K + T = 20

For the second equation we know that there is a sum of $168 so we'll start with that. Then, we know he paid $9 per pound of K so $9* the value of K is the amount paid for Kentucky blue grass total. This can be represented as 9K. We do the same for T, 6T. Since the sum of the cost of $9T and $6K must be $168 we can write this as:

$9K + $6T = $168

What is the value of x?<br><br>enter your answer in the box<br><br>X__​
vfiekz [6]
<h3>Answer: x = 5</h3>

=====================

Work Shown:

Angle Bisector Theorem

9/(2x-1) = 15/3x

9*3x = 15(2x-1) ... cross multiply

27x = 30x-15

27-30x = 30x-15-30x ... subtract 30x from both sides

-3x = -15

-3x/(-3) = -15/(-3) .... divide both sides by -3

x = 5

Solve for z. –z + 4= -4
slega [8]

Answer:

-z+4=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to move the positive four to the other side to isolate the variable.

-z=-8

You cannot have a negative variable, so divide both sides by 1.

-z/1=-8/1

Your answer would be:

Z=8

Hope this helps!!
