<em>Answer:</em>

<em>$0.38 per yard</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>Step 1:</em>

Given; A 9-yard roll of string that costs $3.42.

Required; To find the unit price

<em>  Step 2:</em>

Convert $3.42 to cents

1 ~dollar=100~cents ~\\therefore,\\$3.42=3.42~x~100=342~cents~

<em>Step 3:</em>

<em>Find the unit price</em>

\frac{9 yard}{1 yard} =\frac{342 ~cents}{x~cents}

9x=342

\frac{9x}{9} =\frac{342}{9}

x=38~cents

<em>Convert to dollars</em>

x=\frac{38}{100}

x=0.38~per~yard

Hence the unit price is $0.38 per yard.

What is the correct description for the system of linear equations?
Mkey [24]
The slope of the first equation is -2, you can see it right off.

the slope of the second equation is 2, notice both are in slope-intercept form.

both equations are the equations of a line, so is really just two lines.

because their slope differs, they're not parallel or equivalent, therefore, they lines do meet at some point, and one point only, and therefore, they have 1 solution only.

a system of equations with at least 1 solution,  is a consistent system.

a consistent system with exactly 1 solution only, is not just consistent, but also independent.

Alex determines that there are 5 chocolate candies per cubic inch. If there are 150 chocolate candies in a jar, what is the volu
AlekseyPX
The answer is 30 cubic inches.

If <span>5 chocolate candies are in 1 cubic inch, 150 </span><span>chocolate candies will be in x cubic inches:
</span>5 chocolate candies : 1 cubic inch = 150 chocolate candies : x<span> cubic inches
</span>5 : 1 = 150 : x
5 = 150 : x
x = 150 : 5
x = 30

So, if <span>150 chocolate candies are in a jar, the volume of the jar is 30 cubic inches.</span>

An engineer is planning a new water pipe installation. The circular pipe has a diameter of d=20\text{ cm}d=20 cmd, equals, 20, s
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

314.2 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the circular cross section of the pipe is given by A = πd²/4 where d = diameter of pipe = 20 cm

So, A = πd²/4

substituting the value of d into the equation, we have

A = π(20 cm)²/4

A = π400 cm²/4

A = 100π cm²

A = 314.16 cm²

A ≅ 314.2 cm²
