Why did the United States refuse to join the League of Nations? What bigger message did this send to other countries? Min 2 sent

torisob [31]

Answer:

Although the USA played a major role in establishing the international league, it withdrew from joining the league. The main reason for this action was the outrage of American society, they did not want American resources and young lives were wasted on looking at the world and fighting a war in countries they had never cared for. This left France and Britain as the only ones capable of working in the league and also had no interest in working for the international league goal, which led to its collapse.

A carpenter purchased 70 ft of redwood and 80 ft of pine for a total cost of $351. A second purchase, at the same prices, includ

notsponge [240]

Hey there!!

Let us take the cost of 1 feet redwood as ' x '

Let us take the cost of 1 feet pine as ' y '

For the first scenario :

70 ft red wood and 80 ft pine

1 feet redwood - $x

70 feet redwood - $70x

1 feet pine - $y

80 feet pine - $80y

Total = $351

70x + 80y = 351 --------------------------------- ( 1 )

Second scenario :

1 feet redwood - $x

100 feet redwood - $100x

1 feet pine - $y

60 feet pine - $60y

total - $420

100x + 60y = 420 ----------------------- ( 2 )

Now let us get both the equations together :

70x + 80y = 351 ------------- ( 1 )

100x + 60y = 420 ------------- ( 2 )

Now let us multiply the the 1st equation with 3 and the 2nd equation with 4

3 ( 70x + 80y ) = 3 ( 351 )

4 ( 100x + 60y ) = 4 ( 420 )

............................

210x + 240y = 1053

400x + 240y = 1680

...........................

Now let us subtract the first equation from the second ...

400x + 240y = 1680

- ( 210x + 240y ) = - ( 1053 )

......................

190x = 627

dividing by 160 on both sides

x = 627 / 190

x = 3.3

The cost for 1 feet or per foot for the redwood is $3.3

Now substitute the value of x in any given given equation and find out y

I will substitute in the 1st equation

70x + 80y = 351

70 ( 3.3 ) + 80y = 351

231 + 80y = 351

Subtracting by 231 on both sides

80y = 351 - 231

80y = 120

dividing by 80 on both sides

y = 120 / 80

y = 1.5

The cost for 1 feet or per foot for the pine = $1.5

The answers - $3.3 ( redwood ) ; $1.5 ( pine )

Hope my answer helps!
