Answer:

Pen: $0.03

Pencil: $0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the cost of 1 pencil

this means that the cost of a pen would be x + 0.11

Since she bought 250 pens and 250 pencils, that would be:

250x + 250(x + 0.11) = 42.5

solve:

250x + 250(x + 0.11) = 42.5\\250x + 250x +27.5=42.5\\500x = 15\\x = 0.03

This means that the cost of a pencil is $0.03 and the cost of a pen is 11 cents greater, so $0.14.

Multi step equations 4x+6+3=17
Kobotan [32]
First, you add like terms.  In this case, the like terms are 6 and 3.

4x + 6 + 3 = 17
4x + 9 = 17

Then, subtract 9 on each side:

4x + 9 - 9 = 17 - 9
4x = 8

Then divide by 4 on each side to get the x by itself:

4x/4 = 8/4
x = 2

It’s not C and I suck at math can someone plz help me on this plz and thx
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a cone is calculated as

V = πr²h ( r is the base radius and h the perpendicular height )

To calculate the height h use the right triangle formed by the radius and the inclined side.

Given diameter = 22, then r = 22 ÷ 2 = 11 cm

Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle, then

h² + 11² = 61² , that is

h² + 121 = 3721 ( subtract 121 from both sides )

h² = 3600 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = \sqrt{3600} = 60

Thus

V = π × 11² × 60

   = 3.14 × 121 × 60 ≈ 22796.4 cm³ → a
