Answer:

C. 48 lizards and 24 frogs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let F = number of frog lures, and let L = number of lizard lures.

Marion bought 14 packages of plastic frog and lizard fishing lures.

She bought frog lures in packages of 4 and lizard lures in packages of 6 for a total of 72 lures.

F + L = 72

F/4 + L/6 = 14

12 * F/4 + 12 * L/6 = 12 * 14

         3F + 2L = 168

(+)      -3F - 3L = -216

------------------------------

                   -L = -48

L = 48

F + L = 72

F + 48 = 72

F = 24

Answer: C. 48 lizards and 24 frogs

Estimate the solution of the system x+y=4 2x-y=6 by sketching a graph of each linear function. Then solve the system algebraical
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

(10/3, 2/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You may find it easier to write these two equations x+y=4 2x-y=6 in a column:

x+y=4

2x-y=6

Adding these together will eliminate y:

3x = 10.  Then x = 10/3.

Substituting 10/3 for x in the first equation results in:

10/3 + y = 4

Clear fractions by multiplying all three terms by 3:

10 + 3y = 12

Then 3y = 2, and y = 2/3.

The solution is (10/3, 2/3)

Find the square root of the cube of 10.3
abruzzese [7]
Taking a sqrt=taking a 1/2 power, so when you take a power of a power, you multiply them. So you’re finding 10.3^(3/2).

Sue chooses a dress and necklace to wear when she performs at a violin recital. The probability that Sue selects a black dress i
Verizon [17]

Answer:

Sue has a 12% chance of choosing a black dress and a gold necklace (as a fraction: 3/25, and as a decimal: 0.12).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of two separate events both occurring (in this case, selecting a black dress and a gold necklace), the probabilities are multiplied usually as fractions or decimals.

<u>As fractions:</u>

40% = 4/10

30% = 3/10

4/10 * 3/10 = 12/100 = 3/25, 0.12, or 12%


<u>As decimals:</u>

40% = 0.4

30% = 0.3

0.4 * 0.3 = 0.12 = 3/25, 0.12, or 12%
