It can be deduced that the price of the trick cameras will be $5 and the price of the snakes will be $6.25.

Based on the information given, the equation to solve the question will be:

3x + 4y = 40 ...... i

7x + 8y = 85 ...... ii

Multiply equation i by 7

Multiply equation ii by 3

21x + 28y = 280

21x + 24y = 255

Subtract the equations

4y = 25

y = 25/4 = 6.25

Since 3x + 4y = 40

3x + 4(6.25) = 40

3x + 25 = 40

3x = 40 - 25.

3x = 15

x = 15/3 = 5

Therefore, the price of the trick cameras will be $5 and the price of the snakes will be $6.25.

A skateboarder went a kilometer in 3 minutes with the wind, and returned in four minutes against the wind.
inn [45]

Step-by-step answer:

Answer to problems of this kind is the reciprocal of the harmonic mean of the time required.

We need to find the average of the speeds, not the average of the time.

The respective speeds are 1/3 and 1/4.

The average of the speeds is therefore (1/3+1/4)/2 = 7/24  (harmonic mean of the time taken).

The time required is therefore the reciprocal of the unit speed,

T = 1/(7/24) = 24/7 = 3 3/7 minutes, or approximately 3.43 minutes.

An Native American tepee is a conical tent. Find the number of cubic feet of air in a teepee 10 ft. in diameter and 12 ft. high.
marta [7]
For this case what you should know is that by definition the volume of the cone is given by:
 V = ((pi) * (r ^ 2) * (h)) / (3)
 Remembering that:
 r = d / 2
 Substituting the values:
 V = ((pi) * ((d / 2) ^ 2) * (h)) / (3)
 V = ((pi) * (((10) / 2) ^ 2) * (12)) / (3)
 V = 314.16 ft ^ 3
 Answer:
 V = 314.16 ft ^ 3
 The nearest option is:
 300 cu. ft

29. Which of the following expressions will result in a real answer after being simplified? Select all that apply.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: A, B, C, and E

Step-by-step explanation:

If both sides are real numbers, then the product will be a real number.

If in at least one of the sides we have a complex number, then the product will be real if:

The other number is zero.

The other number is the conjugate of the first.

This is when:

Suppose we have a number:

z = a + b*i

The conjugate will be:

w = a - b*i

And the product between them is:

(a + b*i)*(a - b*i) = a^2 + a*b*i - a*b*i + b^2 = a^2 + b^2

Then the options that will have a real answer are:

A. (4+5i)(4-5i) = 4^2 + 5^2 = 16 + 25 = 41

B. (4 + 91)*(41 - 9) = 3040

C. (3 + 2*i)*(3 -2*i) = 3^2 + 2^2 = 9 + 4 = 13

E. (312 + 7i)*(312 - 7i) = 312^2 + 7^2 = 97,393
