46 pounds of potatoes would cost 414 dollars:)

216 dollars divided by 24 pounds is 9 dollars per 1 pound of potatoes. 9 dollars per pound times 46 pounds is 414 dollars. In proportion form, it would be 24/216=46/x and can be solved by cross multiplying:)

Julli [10]

Answer:

36 minutes

2 rounds for Priya

3 rounds for Ravish

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is the LCM (least common multiple) of 12 and 18.

12 = 2^2 x 3

18 = 3^2 x 2

=>LCM of 12 and 18 = 2^2 x 3^2 = 4 x 9 = 36

=> After 36 minutes they meet again at the starting point

=> At that time, Priya has completed: 36/18 = 2 rounds

=> At that time, Ravish has completed: 36/12 = 3 rounds

The square of a number is 12 less than 7 times the number. What is the number?

hjlf

Answer:

The number is either 3 or 4

Explanation:

Assume that the number we are looking for is x

The square of the number would be x²

7 times the number would be 7x

We are given that:

square of the number (x²) is 12 less than 7 times the number (7x)

Translating this into an equation, we would have:

x² = 7x - 12

Rearranging the quadratic equation:

x² - 7x + 12 = 0

Now, we factor the equation:

(x-4)(x-3) = 0

This means that:

either x-4 = 0 ..................> x = 4

or x-3 = 0 ........................> x = 3

Let's check if any of the solutions is an extrovert:

For x = 3 .............> (3)² = 7(3) - 12 .........> 9 = 21 - 12 .......> 9 = 9 .......> not extrovert

For x = 4 .............> (4)² = 7(4) - 12 .........> 16 = 28 - 12 .....> 16 = 16 ....> not extrovert

Since we have no restrictions on the number, therefore, both solutions would be accepted

Hope this helps :)

Help me solve this questions with steps please

Flauer [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the tangent ratio to find x

tan22° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{203}{x}$

Multiply both sides by x

x × tan22° = 203 ( divide both sides by tan22° )

x = $\frac{203}{tan22}$ ≈ 502.5 m → B

A farmer wants to plant an apple orchard. His design consists of 10 rows of trees, where each row is 29.79 feet long. When he ge

Elis [28]

First divide 29.79 feet by 6
$\frac{29.79}{6} = 4.97$
But since you can't plant only a fraction of a tree, you can plant a maximum of 4 trees per row.
Now there are ten rows so...
10×4 = 40
You can plant 40 trees at the maximum.
