Answer:

18.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

Green beans = 160 pounds

Amount sold in 1 hour = 10 pounds

Amount sold in 3 hours = 3x10= 30 pounds

Decrease in 3 hours = 30 pounds

% decrease = (30/160) x 100

=300/16

=75/4

=18.75%

What is the solution to the system of equations?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

<h2>(-10, 2, 6)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+3y+2z=8&(1)\\3x+y+3z=-10&(2)\\-2x-2y-z=10&(3)\end{array}\right\qquad\text{subtract both sides of the equations (1) from (2)}\\\\\underline{-\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}3x+y+3z=-10\\x+3y+2z=8\end{array}\right }\\.\qquad2x-2y+z=-18\qquad(4)\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations (3) and (4)}\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x-2y-z=10\\2x-2y+z=-18\end{array}\right}\\.\qquad-4y=-8\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-4)}\\.\qquad\qquad y=2\qquad\text{put the value of y to (1) and (3)}

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+3(2)+2z=8\\-2x-2(2)-z=10\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+6+2z=8&\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\-2x-4-z=10&\text{add 4 to both sides}\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+2z=2&\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\-2x-z=14\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+4z=4\\-2x-z=14\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad\qquad3z=18\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\.\qquad\qquad z=6\qquad\text{put the value of z to the first equation}

x+2(6)=2\\x+12=2\qquad\text{subtract 10 from both sides}\\x=-10

What is 7 times as much as the sum of 1/3 + 4/5
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Lets write the problem info into an equation and solve step by step:
7(1/3 + 4/5)
the minimum common multiple of 3 and 5 is 15, so we multiply and divide the fractions by a proper number to convert them to be divided by 15 so is easier to add them:
<span>(1/3)(5/5) = (1*5)/(3*5) = 5/15
(4/5)(3/3) = (4*3)/(5*3) = 12/15
</span>so we substitute in the original equation:
7(1/3 + 4/5<span>)
</span>= 7(5/15 + 12/15<span>)
= 7(17/15)
= (7*17)/15
= 119/15</span>
