She sold 8 pepper plants.

From this problem I made the equation
7p+p=64

I knew that it needed to be 7 times however many pepper plants she sold, so I substituted p until it equaled 64.

7*8+8=64
56+8=64
64=64

So she sold 8 pepper plants and 56 tomato plants for a total of 64 plants.

Answer:

8 pepper plants were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming x= the number of pepper plants sold, she sold 7x tomato plants and x pepper plants, and since tomato plants sold + pepper plants sold = 64, we can turn this into the equation 7x+x=64. To solve this first we combine like terms to get 8x=64. Cancel the 8 by dividing both sides by 8 and we get x=8, which is the number of pepper plants sold. (We could also multiply x by 7 to get the number of tomato plants sold, which is 56.) Hope this helps!

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The answer is 16.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Since the 8x is positive, the equation  must have y as a positive number.

Let's see this!

An easy way to complete the square if you have the constants for x2 and

But not the non-variable number is to divide the x constant, and then square it.

Example:

\frac{8x}{2} \\\\4^2=16\\

The last number must be 16. Let's check it.

(x+4)^2=x^2+8x+16

The sum of 5 consecutive even numbers is 100. What is the first number in this sequence?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent this with an equation, where x is the first number. The next number must be x+2, because it has to be even, not x+1, and the rest continue the same way:

x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8) = 100

Solve for x.

5x+20 = 100

5x = 80

<u>x = 16</u>

Jack and Jill were buying water jugs jack bought 2 medium sized jugs and 3 large sized jugs for 150 dollars and Jill bought 4 me
Mademuasel [1]

Answer: the cost of one medium sized jug is $60

the cost of one large sized jug is $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one medium sized jug.

Let y represent the cost of one large sized jug.

Jack bought 2 medium sized jugs and 3 large sized jugs for 150 dollars. This means that

2x + 3y = 150 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Jill bought 4 medium jugs and 12 large jugs for 360 dollars. This means that

4x + 12y = 360 - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

8x + 12y = 600

8x + 24y = 720

Subtracting, it becomes

- 12y = - 120

y = - 120/ - 12

y = 10

Substituting y = 10 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 3 × 10 = 150

2x + 30 = 150

2x = 150 - 30 = 120

x = 120/2 = 60

Find the area under the standard normal curve to the left of
JulijaS [17]
A. z = 0.74
  The z-score of 0.74 translates to a percentile of 0.77035. Hence, the area under the standard normal curve to the left of z-score 0.74 is ~0.77.

b. z = -2.16
   This z-score translates to a percentile of 0.015386 which is also the numerical value of the area under the curve to the left of the z-score

c. z = 1.02
   The percentile equivalent of the z-score above is 0.846. The area is also 0.846.

d. z = -0.15
   The percentile equivalent and the area is equal to 0.44.

What are zeroes of f(x) =x^2-x-2
allochka39001 [22]
You have to factor this...
 So you have started with this...

x²-x-2=0
If you factor this you will get

(x+1)(x-2)=0

This gives you two solutions...
x=-1, x=2
Hope this helps! Give me a five-rate and a thanks!
