Answer:

12 white 28 printed

Step-by-step explanation:

x = white y = printed

x + y = 40————(1)

4.95x + 7.95y = 282————(2)

Solve for x using 1st equation

x = 40 - y Plug in for x using 2nd equation

4.95(40 - y) + 7.95y = 282 Solve for y

198 - 4.95y + 7.95y = 282

3y = 84

y = 28         Plug in for y using 1st equation

x + (28) = 40     Solve for x

x = 12

I hope this helped and please mark me as brainliest!

Answer:

12 white shirts and 28 printed shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 4.95x + 7.95y = 282

x + y = 40

2. Guess and Check

12 + 28 = 40

4.95 (12) + 7.95 (28) = 59.4 + 222.6

59.4 + 222.6 = 280

3. Answer: 12 white shirts and 28 printed shirts

You can do elimination or substitution, but in this case, I feel like it would've been too complicated.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

V = 314.2 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by

V = pi r^2 h    r is the radius (5) and h is the height (4)

Using the pi button for pi

V = pi (5^2) (4)

V =314.1592654

Rounding to the nearest tenth

If one kg. of potatoes costs $4.99, what would 1.8 kg cost?
lina2011 [118]
You can use the proportion.
$4.99 / 1 kg = x / 1.8 kg
x = ($4.99 * 1.8 kg) / 1 kg
x = $8.98

Therefore, in 1.8 kg of potatoes, it costs at $8.98
