How the heck do you do this?!

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Use PEMDAS to figure out the order of operations:

Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication/Division
Addition/Subtraction

Solve (-4 + -6) first, as this is in parentheses:

$-4 + -6 = -10$

$10 - 5.3 * -10$

Solve 5.3 * -10 next, as this is multiplication:

$5.3 * -10 = -53$

$10 - -53$

Now we can solve the equation:

$10 - -53 = 63$

The answer is 63.

find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2 if A is at (1,2) and B is at (8, 16).

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A(1,2) ---->(x1,y1)

B(8,16) ----->(x2,y2)

m:n = 5:2

$M(\frac{x_{2}m+x_{1}}{m+n},y_{2}m+y_{1}}{m+n})\\\\=M(\frac{5*8+2*1}{5+2},\frac{5*16+2*2}{5+2})\\\\=M(\frac{40+2}{7},\frac{80+4}{7})\\\\=M(\frac{42}{7}{,\frac{84}{7})\\\\=M(6,12)$

Nicole runs a farm stand that sells bananas and peaches. Each pound of bananas sells for $2 and each pound of peaches sells for

stepan [7]

Answer:

The required system of equations is:

2x + 3.25y = 231.75

x = y + 3

where x is the number of pounds of bananas and y is the number of pounds of peaches

Explanation:

1- Defining the variables:

Assume that the number of pounds of bananas sold is x

Assume that the number of pounds of peaches sold is y

2- Setting the system of equations:

We are given that:

i. Each pound of bananas sells for $2

Money gained from selling x pounds of bananas is 2x

ii. Each pound of peach sells for $3.23

Money gained from selling y pounds of peaches is 3.25y

iii. Nicole made $231.75 in total. This means that:

2x + 3.25y = 231.75 .................> equation I

iv. Nicole sold 3 more pounds of bananas than pounds of peaches. This

means that:

pounds of bananas = pounds of peaches + 3

x = y + 3 ..................> equation II

3- Solving the equations (if required):

In equation II, we have: x = y + 3

Substitute with equation II in equation I and solve for y as follows:

2x + 3.25y = 231.75

2(y+3) + 3.25y = 231.75

2y + 6 + 3.25y = 231.75

5.25y = 231.75 - 6

5.25y = 225.75

y = 43

Substitute with y in equation II to get x:

x = y + 3

x = 43 + 3 = 46

Based on the above:

Number of pounds of bananas = x = 46 pounds

Number of pounds of peaches = y = 43 pounds

Hope this helps :)
