3n+6b=72, 

3n=72-6b

n=24-2b  and we are also told that:

4n+5b=66  substituting in n found above into this equation gives

4(24-2b)+5b=66

96-8b+5b=66

-3b=-30

b=10 grams, and since from earlier we saw that n=24-2b

n=24-2(10)

n=24-20

n=4 grams

So the combined mass of one bold and one nut is:

10+4=14 grams

What statement best demonstrates why the following is a NON-EXAMPLE of a polynomial?
madreJ [45]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function has x in the denominator, it cannot be a polynomial.

The rest of the options either don't apply to the equation, or are not rules for polynomials.

A cylinder has a volume of 245 cubic units and a height of 5 units. The diameter of the cylinder is
frutty [35]

The independent variable here is b, the number of mats; the dependent var. is p, the cost of b mats. Thus, p = f(b).


Here, 245 units^3 = pi*r^2*(5 units), or


245 units^3

r^2 = ------------------- = 15.61 units^2. Thus, the radius is sqrt(15.61 units^2), or

5(3.14) units 3.95 units. The DIAMETER is d = 2*r = 7.90 units.

The difference between the acute angles of a right angled triangle is 72degree find them .
MaRussiya [10]

The 2 angles add up to 90 degrees so

x + y = 90, also:-

x - y = 72 (given)

adding the 2 equations:-

2x = 162

x = 81

and therefore

y + 81 = 90

y = 9


Answer the 2 angles are 81 and 9 degrees

What are the solutions for x when y is equal to 0 in the quadratic function y=x^2-8x
Elena L [17]
I would use the quadratic formula for this:

  x = -b ± √b² - 4ac over 2a
  x = 8 ± √64 - 4(1)(0) over 2(1)
  x = 8 ± √64 over 2
  x = 8 <span>± 8 over 2 [simplify]
  x = 4 </span><span>± 4
     x1 = 4 + 4    x2 = 4 - 4
     x1 = 8          x2 = 0


Thus, the solutions for x would be 0 and 8.</span>
