Answer:

$5.61

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first of all, 15% off of 1.20 is 1.02. Then, multiply that by 5 1/2 to get $5.61.

Angelo grows vegetables and sells them at a farmers'

Answer:

$7.55

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by using a system of equations. The equations would be set up like this:

2c + p = 3.15\\3c + 2p = 5.35\\

Let's isolate a variable in the first equation:

p = -2c + 3.15

Now we can plug this in to the second equation:

3c + 2(-2c + 3.15) = 5.35\\3c - 4c + 6.3 = 5.35\\-c + 6.3 = 5.35 \\-c = -.95\\c = .95

Now that we have found c we can find p by plugging c in to an equation

2(.95) + p = 3.15\\1.9 + p = 3.15\\p = 1.25

We have found both variables now we can use the following equation to answer the question:

4c + 3p = ?\\4(.95) + 3(1.25) = ?\\3.8+3.75 = 7.55

Therefore, the price in dollars of 4 cucumbers and 3 peppers is $7.55.

Is 9-x&gt;3,x=6.5 true or false
Ann [662]

if x=6.5, plug this value into the expression to test the inequality.

9-6.5 = 2.5

2.5 > 3

this statement is FALSE because 2.5 is less than 3 NOT greater than.

There are 25 students in Laura's class, and 21 of the students went on the class trip to the zoo. What percentage of students we
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Since there are 25 students and there’s 21 at the zoo you would end up having 21 out of 25 and 21 out of 25 as a percentage is 84% because you have to look at 25 as a whole and that whole would be 100% so 84 out of 100% is equal to 21 out of 25

Can somebody please balance this !?!
Lera25 [3.4K]
\mathrm{CO}_2 has 2 oxygens for every carbon. \mathrm{CO} will contribute one of each for every molecule. You then have to have an even multiple of \mathrm{CO} molecules to not end up with an odd number of oxygens.

So if you take 2\mathrm{CO}, you should end up with 2 carbons on the RHS. 2\mathrm{CO}_2 then has 4 oxygens. 2 of them are already accounted for, so you just need one \mathrm O_2 to balance out the reaction.

1\mathrm O_2+2\mathrm{CO}\Rightarrow2\mathrm{CO}_2
