Answer:

7x+5y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  grocery store sells almonds for $7/lb and peanuts for $5/lb.

Let x represent the number of pounds of almonds,

and let y represents the number of pounds of peanuts.

Cost of almonds = 7x\\

Cost of peanuts = 5y

Total cost = 7x+5y

This must be less than 10 dollars

Hence inequality is

7x+5y

How much interest would $2,000 earn, with simple interest, in two years at the<br>rate of 4.2%?​
Anna [14]

Answer:

$168

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we'll use for this is the simple interest formula, or:

I=Prt

Where:

P is the principal amount, $2000.00.

r is the interest rate, 4.2% per year, or in decimal form, 4.2/100=0.042.

t is the time involved, 2....year(s) time periods.

So, t is 2....year time periods.

To find the simple interest, we multiply 2000 × 0.042 × 2 to get that:

The interest is: $168.00

A box of fruit has four times more peaches than plums.
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The number of plums = 4

The number of peaches =  16

The number of nectarines =  1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of peaches be = x

Let the number of nectarines be = y

Let the number of plums be = z

A box of fruit has four times more peaches than plums. This means that

The number of peaches = 4 X the number of plums.

i.e x = 4z

The box has 3 fewer nectarines than plums. This means that

Number of nectarines = number of plums - 3

i.e y = z - 3

If the box contains 21 pieces of fruit, this means that if we sum up all the peaches, nectarines, and plums in the box, we will get 21.

Peaches + Nectarines + Plums = 21

4z + z-3 + z = 21

6z =21 +3

z = 24/6

z = 4

Therefore, the number of plums = 4

The number of peaches = 4 X 4 = 16

The number of nectarines = 4 -3 = 1

Find the equation of the line that
olganol [36]

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal gradients(slopes) so the slope of your new line would be 1/2. Then you use the point to find the new y-intercept

y=mx+b

2=\frac{1}{2}(8)+b

2=4+b

B=-2

y=\frac{1}{2}x-2
