Now, let's do the same as we did for the previous one here.
notice again, how did we get 84 for the 4th element's coefficient? well 36 * 7 / 3. and so on. And you can just expand it from there.
Answer: the cost of each bush is $15
the cost of each flower is $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of each bush.
Let y represent the cost of each flower.
Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as
12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1
Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as
7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes
84x + 210y = 1680
84x + 120y = 1500
Subtracting, it becomes
90y = 180
y = 180/90
y = 2
Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes
12x + 30 × 2 = 240
12x + 60 = 240
12x = 240 - 60 = 180
x = 180/12
x = 15
(50 yards/minute) x (3 feet/yard) x (1 minute / 60 seconds)
= (50 · 3 · 1 / 60) (yard-feet-minute) / (minute-yard-second)
= 2.5 feet/second .
Answer:
20 sq in
Step-by-step explanation:
formula is (base * height)/2 so plug it in:
5*8=40
40/2=20
20 sq in
