Answer:

937.5 packs of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that:

100p = £1

80p = x

Cross Multiply

100x = 80p × £1

x = 80/100

x = £0.8

Jay sells 10 packs of apples for 80p.

Hence:

£0.8 = 10 packs of apples

£75 = x

Cross Multiply

£0.8 × x = £75 × 10 Packs

x = £75 × 10 Packs/£0.8

x = 937.5

Therefore, to make £75 at the end of the year, he has to sell 937.5 packs of apples

A basketball holds 334 cubic inches of air. Find the radius of the basketball. Use 3.14 for π. Round to the nearest hundredth. A
Gwar [14]

Answer:

4.30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Volume of basket ball= 334cubic inches

We know that the expression for the volume of a sphere is given as

Volume of sphere= 4/3πr^3

334= 4/3πr^3

334=4/3*3.142*r^3

334=4.189*r^3

r^3= 334/4.189

r^3=79.73

cubic root both sides

r= ∛79.73

r=4.30 inches

-6x - 29 + 7x = 8 and -8x + 6x - 13 = 33
Mumz [18]
First equation:
-6x-29+7x=8
Combine like terms
-6+7=1
1x-29=8
Add 29 to both sides
1x=37
Divide both sides by 1
x=37

Second equation:
-8x+6x-13=33
Combine like terms
-8+6=-2
-2x-13=33
Add 13 on both sides
-2x=46
Divide both sides by -2
x=-23
