Answer:

7r + g = 46

7r + 2g = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Matt and Trevon both bought supplies from a store, and we know that Matt bought 7 rose bushes and 1 geranium, and spent a total of $46 while Trevon bought 7 rose bushes and 2 geraniums, and spent a total of $50

We know that each rose bush costs a certain amount, and each geranium must cost a certain amount, but we don't know what that amount is; it's also possible that the amounts could be different

So let's say that the cost of one rose bush is r dollars; for Matt, that means that he spent 7r dollars on 7 rose bushes. Trevon also bought 7 rose bushes, meaning he also spent 7r dollars on rose bushes.

Since the cost of the geraniums can be different from the cost of every rose bush, let's express it with a different variable, like g.
Since Matt bought one geranium, he spent g dollars on that one geranium.
Trevon bought 2 geraniums, so he spent 2g dollars on the geraniums

The total cost of what Matt spent on flowers was 7r + g dollars (7 rose bushes + 1 geranium), which is equal to 46 dollars

As an equation, that can be written as 7r + g = 46

Trevon spent 7r + 2g dollars (7 rose bushes + 2 geraniums), which gave him a total of $50

As an equation, that can be written as 7r + 2g = 50
The two equations therefore are:
7r + g =46
7r+2g=50
Hope this helps!

r=radius\\
h=height\\
-----\\
r=12\\
h=9

\\\\\\
s=\pi (12)\sqrt{12^2+9^2}+\pi (12^2)\implies s=12\pi \sqrt{225}+144\pi 
\\\\\\
s=12\pi (15)+144\pi \implies s=180\pi +144\pi \implies s=324\pi

Given the following functions f(x) and g(x), solve (f ⋅ g)(3) and select the correct answer below:
Ksenya-84 [330]
I believe you may have the order incorrect. If we were looking at g(f(x)) the answer would be 47. We would get this by sticking the 3 in for x in f(x) and solving, which would give us 48. We would then stick that answer in for x in the g(x), giving us 47. 

In its current order the answer would be 28.

A recipe calls for using 3/4 cup of brown sugar for each 2/3 cup of white sugar. How many cups of brown sugar are used per cup o
nikklg [1K]
3/4 all over 2/3 equal to x/1 cup

So 3/4 / 2/3 =x/1 now you can cross multiple so 3/4*1=3/4 then 2/3*x=2x/3 then you can solve for x.

3/4=2x/3 multiple 3 to both sides so the 3 cancels with the denominator of 2x
9/4=2x then divide by 2 to both sides to get x alone
9/8=x
1.125=x

So for every 1 cup of white sugar you need 1.125 cups of brown sugar.
