This is a system of equations problem.
Blueberry = X, blackberry = Y
Joe:
5x + 10y = 135
James:
x + 9y = 104
Let’s isolate x from James’ equation.
x = 104 - 9y
Now substitute that into the first equation.
5(104 - 9y) + 10y = 135
520 - 45y + 10y = 135
-35y = -385
y = -385/-35. The negatives cancel out, leaving us with $11 for blackberries.
Now we can substitute that value into James’s equation.
x + 9(11) = 104
x = 104 - 99
x = $5
Final answer: Blueberry pies cost $5, blackberry pies cost $11.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the figure is made up of portion of a square and a semicircle, we have;
BC ≅ AB = 6 cm
The area of semicircle BC with radius BC/2 = 3 is 1/2×π×r² = 1/2×π×3² = 4.5·π cm²
Triangle ABC = 1/2 × Area of square from which ABC is cut
The area of triangle ABC = 1/2×Base ×Height = 1/2×AB×BC = 1/2×6×6 = 18 cm²
The area of the figure = The area of semicircle BC + The area of triangle ABC
The area of the figure = 4.5·π cm² + 18 cm² = 
.
Answer:
11x11x11=11³
Step-by-step explanation:
11 to the third means 11 times itself 3 times
Mr. Vella can build the wall in 4 days, however only works on it for 3 days. That means that he has completed 75% of the and is leaving 25% for his apprentice.
We need to figure out how long it takes the apprentice to build 25% of a wall. We know he can build 100% of a wall in 6 days, so dividing 6 days by 4 will give us our answer.
6/4 = 3/2 = 1.5 days
It took the apprentice 1.5 days to finish the wall.
