The one-time entry fee is $12.

In order to determine the one-time entry fee, two equations have to be formed from the information in the question:

x + 5y = 42 equation 1

x + 7y = 54 equation 2

Where:

x = one-time entry fee

y = cost to pick an apple per pound

In order to determine the one-time entry fee, take the following steps:

Multiply equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 5.

7x + 35y = 294 equation 3

5x + 35y = 270 equation 4

Subtract equation 4 from equation 3

2x =24

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

x = $12

Answer:

When solving for x, answer = $\large\boxed{x = 5a - 8}$

When solving for a, answer = $\large\boxed{a = 1/5x + 8/5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

24 + 5x = -x + 6(5a - 4)

Start by multiplying 6 by the values in the parenthesis

24 + 5x = -x + 30a - 24

Add 24 to both sides of the equation

48 + 5x = -x + 30a

Add 1x to both sides of the equation

48 + 6x = 30a

Subtract 48 from both sides of the equation

6x = 30a - 48

Divide both sides of the equation by 6

x = 5a - 8 (Answer when solving for x)

Add 8 to both sides of the equation

x + 8 = 5a

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

a = 1/5x + 8/5 (Answer when solving for a)

-----------------------------------------

When solving for x, answer = $\large\boxed{x = 5a - 8}$

When solving for a, answer = $\large\boxed{a = 1/5x + 8/5}$

Hope this helps :)

BRAINLIEST ANSWER TO FIRST ANSWERER!!!!

mina [271]

Answer:

Option C. $tan(B)=2.29$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle ABC

The tangent of angle B is equal to the opposite side angle B divided by the adjacent side angle B

$tan(B)=\frac{AC}{AB}$

substitute the values

$tan(B)=\frac{16}{7}=2.29$

Find the rate of change of the area of a square with respect

Romashka [77]

Let the side length of the square be x, then A = x^2
but diagonal (z) = sqrt(2x^2)
z^2 = 2x^2
x^2 = 1/2 z^2

Thus, A = 1/2 z^2
dA/dz = 1/2 (2z) = z
The rate of change is z.

When z = 4, the rate is 4.
