Answer:

The number of

Small candles = x = 12 candles

Large candles = y = 16 candles

Step-by-step explanation:

You sell small and large candles at a craft fair. You collect $144 selling a total of 28 candles. How many of each type of candle did you sell? A photo shows a small candle labeled 4 dollars each and a large candle labeled 6 dollars each.

Let the number of

Small candles = x

Large candles = y

Our system of equations is:

x + y = 28 .......... Equation 1

x = 28 - y

A photo shows a small candle labeled 4 dollars each and a large candle labeled 6 dollars each.

4x + 6y = 144......... Equation 2

Substitute 28 - y for x in Equation 2

4(28 - y) + 6y = 144

112 - 4y + 6y = 144

- 4y + 6y = 144 - 112

2y = 32

y = 32/2

y = 16 candles

x = 28 - y

x = 28 - 16

x = 12 candles

Therefore:

The number of

Small candles = x = 12 candles

Large candles = y = 16 candles

Write the square of (2x+1/x)
pentagon [3]

Answer:

((2 x^2 + 1)^2)/(x^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(2 x + 1/x)^2

Hint: | Put the fractions in 2 x + 1/x over a common denominator.

Put each term in 2 x + 1/x over the common denominator x: 2 x + 1/x = (2 x^2)/x + 1/x:

((2 x^2)/x + 1/x)^2

Hint: | Combine (2 x^2)/x + 1/x into a single fraction.

(2 x^2)/x + 1/x = (2 x^2 + 1)/x:

((2 x^2 + 1)/x)^2

Hint: | Distribute exponents over quotients in ((2 x^2 + 1)/x)^2.

Multiply each exponent in (2 x^2 + 1)/x by 2:

Answer: ((2 x^2 + 1)^2)/(x^2)
