If Quincy finds 120 shells in 4 days, we can use the equation 4x = 120 to find how many shells she found each day.
4x = 120
If we divide both sides by four we get x = 30
So Quincy found 30 shells each day.
The circumference of the top of the cake is
in.
It sounds like the baker is trying to line the circumference with cherriesto fit as many as possible along the border, like in the picture I've attached below.
This comes down to dividing the cake's circumference by the diameter of each cherry:

or about 39 cherries, making the answer D.
Answer:
P=41.72
Step-by-step explanation:
S=ACxDB/2
81.7=8.6xDB/2
81.7=4.3xDB|:4.3
19(mm)=DB
DO=19/2=9.5
OC=8.6/2=4.3
(O is the center of the rhombus, where two diagonals meet)
a²+b²=c² (DO²+OC²=DC²)
9.5²+4.3²=c²
90.25+18,49=c²
√108,74=√c²
c≈10.43
P=4c
P=4x10.43
P=41.72
Hope it helps:)
Answer:
(1/2,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, determine y in first equation: 2x+y=5 or y=5-2x
replace value of y determined in first equation (5-2x) into 2nd equation
4x-3(5-2x)=-10
4x-15+6x=10
10x=5
x=1/2
put value of x into either equation to solve for y so
2(1/2)+y=5
1+y=5
y=4
answer: x=1/2, y=4
check answer by substituting x and y into either equation:
4x-3y=-10
4(1/2)-3(4)=-10
2-12=-10
-10=-10
or
2x+y=5
2(1/2)+4=5
1+4=5
5=5
