Lydia buys 5 pounds of apples and 3 pounds of bananas for a total of $8.50. Ari buys 3 pounds of apples and 2 pounds of bananas
Anarel [89]
5x + 3y= 8.50
3x + 2y= 5.25

Lydia is the first equation. She bought 5 pounds of apples which is x and bought 3 pounds of bananas which is y. Basically, remember each banana and apple weighs a price per pound. We don't know the price so we just put an x. This is the same for the second equation

The ratio of two numbers is 4:5 if the larger number is 300 what is the smaller number​
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The smaller number is 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question says that the larger number is 300, so 5 has to be 300.

4:5

?:300

You can use cross-multiplication or find the scale factor to find the answer.

Cross-multiplication:

4 × 300 ÷ 5 = 240

Finding the scale factor:

300 ÷ 5 = 60

4 × 60 = 240

The smaller number is 240.

Solve the system below using substitution write your final answer as a coordinate point
Mademuasel [1]

(3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x + 4

-x + 3y = -9

-x + 3 (-2x + 4) = -9

-x + -6x + 12 = -9

-7x = - 9 – 12

-7x = - 21

X = 3

We substitute x with 3 to evaluate y;

-3 + 3y = -9

3y = -6

y = -2

Elimination Method;

y = -2x + 4

-x + 3y = -9

We arrange the equations for substitution;

2x + y = 4

-x + 3y = -9

We multiply the first equation with 3 so we can substract one variable to zero;

3 (2x + y = 4)

= 6x + 3y = 12

Then we subtract the two;

6x + 3y = 12

-x + 3y = -9

7x = 21

x = 3

We evaluate y by substitution x with 3 in one of the equation;

-x + 3y = -9

-3 + 3y = -9

3y = -6

y = -2

The final answer expressed as a coordinate point is;

(3, -2)

F(x) = -1/2x^2 + 3/2x - 2 I need to find the zeros​
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

{-1, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given f(x) = -1/2x^2 + 3/2x - 2

set f(x) = 0 and then multiply all the numeric terms by -2 to remove the fractions:

f(x) = -1/2x^2 + 3/2x - 2 = 0  =>  1x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0  

This factors into (x - 4)(x + 1) = 0, whose roots are {-1, 4}.  These are the zeros.
