2(x + 3) + 2x = 24

2x + 6 + 2x = 24

4x = 24 - 6

4x = 18

x = 3.5

length is (x + 3), so Sub x = 3.5 into (x + 3)

3.5 + 3 = 6.5

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

y = x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = 1

y = mx + b

4 = 1(2) + b

2 = b

y = x + 2

A baker buys 19 apples of two different varieties to make pies. The total cost of the apples is $5.10. Granny Smith apples cost

Natasha2012 [34]

The baker bought 7 gala apples, and 12 granny smiths apples

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the number of gala apples bought

Let "y" be the number of granny smith apples bought

Cost of 1 gala apple = $ 0.30

Cost of 1 granny smith apple = $ 0.25

<em><u>A baker buys 19 apples of two different varieties to make pies</u></em>

Therefore,

number of gala apples bought + number of granny smith apples bought = 19

x + y = 19 --------- eqn 1

<em><u>The total cost of the apples is $5.10</u></em>

Therefore, we can frame a equation as:

number of gala apples bought x Cost of 1 gala apple + number of granny smith apples bought x Cost of 1 granny smith apple = 5.10

$x \times 0.30 + y \times 0.25 = 5.10$

0.3x + 0.25y = 5.1 -------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

From eqn 1,

x = 19 - y ---------- eqn 3

<em><u>Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2</u></em>

0.3(19 - y) + 0.25y = 5.1

5.7 - 0.3y + 0.25y = 5.1

5.7 - 0.05y = 5.1

0.05y = 5.7 - 5.1

0.05y = 0.6

y = 12

<em><u>Substitute y = 12 in eqn 3</u></em>

x = 19 - 12

x = 7

Thus the baker bought 7 gala apples, and 12 granny smiths apples

The game of Connex contains one 4-unit piece, two identical 3-unit pieces, three identical 2-unit pieces and four identical 1-un

Aleks [24]

Answer: 277 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s start bycreating 10-unit pieces using the 4-unit piece.

The arrangements are:

1). 4-3-3 (3 permutations)

2). 4-3-2-1 = 4! = 24 permutations.

3). 4-3-1-1-1 (5*[4!/(3!1!)]

= 5*4

= 20permutations

4). 4-2-2-2 (4 permutations)

5). 4-2-2-1-1 (5 *[4!/(2!2!)]

= 5*6

= 30 permutations

6). 4-2-1-1-1-1(6*[5!/(4!1!)]

= 6*5

= 30 permutations

Let’s-consider the arrangements using one or more3-unit pieces and no 4-unit piece:

7). 3-3-2-2 (4!/(2!2!)

8). 3-3-2-1-1 (5*(4!/(2!2!)

= 5*6

= 30 permutations.

9). 3-3-1-1-1-1 (6!/(4!2!) = 0

10). 3-2-2-2-1 (5*4!/(3!1!)

= 5*4

= 20permutations

11). 3-2-2-1-1-1 (6*5!/(3!2!)

= 6*10

= 60 permutations

Finally we would look at the arrangements using only 1-and 2-unit pieces:

12). 2-2-2-1-1-1-1 (7!/(4!3!)

= 35 permutations

add them all up:

(3 + 24 + 20 + 4) + (30 + 30 + 6 + 30) + (15 + 20 + 60 + 35)

=51 + 96 + 130

= 277ways
