Answer:

D 16 cupcakes and 40 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

I wrote an equation to solve for this

2.5x + x = 56

x represents cupcakes

3.5x = 56

x = 16

16 represents cupcakes.

16*2.5 = 40 (cookies)

Rewrite the following expression 15+21 using the GCF and the distributive property
avanturin [10]
First, we want to find the GCF of 15 and 21, which is 3. Now we do 15 divided by 3 and 21 divided by 3, which gives us 5 and 7. To rewrite the expression, we take the GCF and put it on the outside of the parenthesis. Inside the parenthesis, we put 5 + 7. So it'll look like this:

3(5 + 7)

To see how costly it would be for other people to compete a similar cycling tour, you decide to work out two averages and compar
Damm [24]

Group A

Money spent by Person 1 = £500

Money spent by Person 2 = £600

Money spent by Person 3 = £900

Money spent by Person 4 = £450

Sum of money spent by group A = £2,450

Average money spent by group A = \frac{2,450}{4}

⇒ Average money spent by group A = £612.5

Group B

Money spent by Person 1 = £700

Money spent by Person 2 = £500

Money spent by Person 3 = £680

Money spent by Person 4 = £500

Sum of money spent by group B = £2,380

Average money spent by group B = \frac{2,380}{4}

⇒ Average money spent by group B = £595

Hence, Group B had lower average spend.

Find the determinant of the following matrix. A =<br>-2 6<br>3 5​
Blababa [14]

Answer:

|A| = - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&6\\3&5\end{array}\right]

Required

Determine the determinant

For a two by two matrix, A such that:

A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]

The determinant |A| is:

|A| = a * d - b * c

So, in

A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}-2&6\\3&5\end{array}\right]

The determinant is:

|A| = -2 * 5 - 6 * 3

|A| = -10 - 18

|A| = - 28

Monica [59]

Answer:

First of all you spelled years instead of yards. But I'd say that Mallory has the longer piece of wire.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of 2.16 yds over 1 times 1 meter over 3 yds. You divide them instead of multiplying, you get 1.97 meters.
