Answer:

They must buy 501 pounds of produce for the membership to be worth it.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this question by first finding the difference between $0.10 and $0.25.

With some simple subtraction (0.25-0.10) we can find that the difference is that a non-membership person would pay $0.15 per pound.

You then divide 75 by 0.15 to find the extra weight it would take for the produce to equal $75. You should get 500 pounds.

At 500 pounds, the price would be equal if you had a membership or not.

You then must add 1 pound to make it more favorable to have the membership.

At 501 pounds the person with the membership would pay $125.10 and the person without the membership would pay $125.25

What is the answer to this equation? 2(9+x) = -5(4-x)

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Hi!

Alrighty here we go:

2(9+x)=-5(4-x)

18+2x=-20+5x

Now combine like terms

+20+18+2x=-20+20+5x

38+2x=5x

38+2x-2x=5x-2x

38=3x

x= 38/3

Hope this helped!

melomori [17]

To find the speed you must write S= d/t so for the first one we will chang 15 m to b so it is = 0.25h so s=3/0.25h = 12km/h an why secand is 45 m to h = 0.75h so S=d/t S =12/0.75 =16 km/h the to find the totel speed we should + the speed together so 12 + 16 = 28 km/h

Yes! 8 - 3 is 5
so it is A.
It is not multiplied or divided by one single number so the sequence is arithmetic not geometric

The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 252 square feet. Its length is 10 feet longer than twice its width. Find the length

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: Length = 28 feet and width = 9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = width of the wall.

Then, Length of the wall = 10+2x

Since , Area of rectangle = length x width

Then, as per given,

$252= (10+2x)x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 252=10x+2x^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2x^2+10x-252=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+5x-126=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2+14x-9x-126=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (x+14)-9(x+14)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (x+14)(x-9)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=-14 \ or \ x= 9$

Since width cannot be negative , so x = 9

So width = 9 feet and length = 10+2(9)=10+18 = 28 feet

Hence, length is 28 feet and width is 9 feet of the wall of the barn.
