At a farmers market, oranges sell for $5 per bag and apples sell for $3 per
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

A. 3 bags of oranges, 4 bags of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

If O is number of bags of oranges and A is number of bags of apples:

O + A = 7

5O + 3A = 27

We can solve this system of equations with either substitution or elimination.  I like to use substitution, but you can use whichever you prefer.

O = 7 − A

5 (7 − A) + 3A = 27

35 − 5A + 3A = 27

35 − 2A = 27

8 = 2A

A = 4

O = 7 − A

O = 3

Teresa bought 3 bags of oranges and 4 bags of apples.

QveST [7]

Answer:

<h2>A. 60 in³</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a cone:

V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2H

r - radius

H - height

We have r = 1.9 in and H = 15 in. Substitute:

V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi(1.9)^2(15)=\pi(3.61)(5)=18.05\pi\ in^3

\pi\approx3\to V\approx18.05\cdot3=54.15\ in^3

in three plays of a football game, there is a gain of 4 yards, a loss of 9 yards, and a gain of 15 yards. What number can you us
Aloiza [94]

We can use minus(-) sign i.e. -9 to represent loss of 9 yards.

<h3>Write the difference between gain and loss.</h3>

The word “gain” implies “acquiring something”.

Gain means to acquire something one desires especially because of one’s efforts.

Gain means to get something additional, for example, to gain more speed, to gain more weight.

We can denote gain by using plus(+) sign before the given number.

“Loss” generally means “to lose something one already has.”

Loss means the deprivation from keeping something, for example, bearing the loss of a theft.

It refers to something which is lost, for example, the theft of jewelry was a great loss.

We can denote loss by using minus(-) sign before the number.

In the given question it is said that there is gain of 4 yards, loss of 9 yards and gain of 15 yards.

It is asked that how would we represent 9 yards loss.

We know that we use minus(-) sign to represent loss.

So we can represent loss of 9 yards by writing it as -9.

If (x + 1)(x-3) = 5, then which of the following statements is true?
bixtya [17]

Answer:

x=−2 or x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

x2−2x−3=5

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

x2−2x−3−5=5−5

x2−2x−8=0

Step 3: Factor left side of equation.

(x+2)(x−4)=0

Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.

x+2=0 or x−4=0

x=−2 or x=4
