Answer:

well if you add both equations it will all eliminate to 0 = -1

what is inconsistant cause there is no solution cause the statment 0 is equal to -1 is false

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + -2x = 0

-y + y = 0

-4 + 3 = -1

Evaluate 4(2a – b) when a = –1 and b = 5.

grin007 [14]

Hey There!

<h2>Question:-</h2>

$\sf \longmapsto \: 4(2a - b)$

This is a algebraic expression. The values of a and b are given. The values are as follows :-

a = -1

And,

b = +5 .

<h2>Solution:-</h2>

$\sf \longmapsto4(2a - b)$

Note that a is multiplied with 2 that is :-

$\sf \longmapsto4(2 \times a \: - b)$

Now, Insert the values that is a = -1 and b = 5 :-

$\sf \longmapsto4(2 \times - 1 - 5)$

Here,we need to follow BODMAS Rule.

B = Brackets

O = Orders

D = Division

M = Multiplication

A = Addition

S = Subtraction

We need to solve the bracket's calculations first as it is the rule.

So, Firstly Multiply (2 × -1) :-

$\sf \longmapsto4( - 2 - 5)$

Note that, (-) × (-) equals to (+).

So, it will be 5+2,But as 5 is bigger number than 2, 5 contains a minus sign.So the result will be -7.

$\sf \longmapsto4( 5+ 2)$

On Simplification:-

$\sf \longmapsto4( - 7)$

$\sf \longmapsto4 \times (- 7)$

$\sf \longmapsto \: - 28$

______________________________________

Henceforth the solution of the algebraic expression is :-

$\bf \:- 28$

Option B is correct!

I hope this helps!

At the market, Ms. Winn bought 3/4 lb of grapes and 5/8 lb of cherries.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Part a) Ms. Winn bought 12 oz of grapes

Part b) Ms. Winn bought 10 oz of cherries

Part c) Ms. Winn bought 2 oz more of grapes than cherries

Part d) Mr. Phillips bought 6 more ounces of fruit than Ms. Winn

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) How many ounces of grapes did Ms. Winn buy?

Remember that

$1\ lb=16\ oz$

To convert lb to oz multiply by 16

we know that

Ms. Winn bought 3/4 lb of grapes

Convert lb to oz

Multiply by 16

$\frac{3}{4}\ lb= \frac{3}{4}(16)=12\ oz$

therefore

Ms. Winn bought 12 oz of grapes

Part b) How many ounces of cherries did Ms. Winn buy?

Remember that

$1\ lb=16\ oz$

To convert lb to oz multiply by 16

we know that

Ms. Winn bought 5/8 lb of cherries

Convert lb to oz

Multiply by 16

$\frac{5}{8}\ lb= \frac{5}{8}(16)=10\ oz$

therefore

Ms. Winn bought 10 oz of cherries

Part c) How many more ounces of grapes than cherries did Ms. Winn buy?

Subtract the ounces of cherries from the ounces of grapes

$12\ oz-10\ oz=2\ oz$

therefore

Ms. Winn bought 2 oz more of grapes than cherries

Part d) If Mr. Phillips bought 1 3/4 pounds of raspberries, who bought more fruit, Ms. Winn or Mr. Phillips? How many ounces more?

Remember that

$1\ lb=16\ oz$

To convert lb to oz multiply by 16

we know that

Mr. Phillips bought 1 3/4 pounds of raspberries

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$1\frac{3}{4}\ lb=\frac{1*4+3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}\ lb$

Convert lb to oz

Multiply by 16

$\frac{7}{4}\ lb= \frac{7}{4}(16)=28\ oz$

Remember that

Ms. Winn bought 12 oz of grapes and 10 oz of cherries

In total Ms. Winn bought

12 oz+10 oz=22 oz -----> total ounces of fruit

Mr. Phillips bought 28 oz of fruit

Ms. Winn bought 22 oz of fruit

$28\ oz > 22\ oz$

Find the difference

$(28\ oz-22\ oz)=6\ oz$

therefore

Mr. Phillips bought 6 more ounces of fruit than Ms. Winn

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

252 plants

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, calculate the area of the garden bed.

24 x 84 = 2016 inches squared

now, divide your answer by 8 (the amount of space needed for each plant)

2016 ÷ 8 = 252

I HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL :-)
