8 kg of potatoes and 5 kg of carrots cost $28 whereas 2 kg of potatoes and 3 kg of carrots cost $11.20. Find the cost of 1 kg of each item.
also give the explanation.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 kg of Potatoes = $ 2

Cost of 1 kg of Carrots = $ 2.40

Let the cost of 1 kg of Potatoes = x

Let the cost of 1 kg of Carrots = y

ATQ , 8x + 5y = 28 - 1)

2x + 3y = 11.20 - 2)

Multiplying 2) by 4

8x + 12y = 44.80 - 3)

Applying Elimination method in 1) and 3)

8x + 5y = 28.00

8x + 12y = 44.80

0 + -7y = - 16.80

y = 16.8/7

y = 2.4

Putting the value of "y" in 1)

8x + 5(2.4) = 28

8x + 12 = 28

8x = 16

x = 16/8

x = 2

The price of a notebook has risen to $3.45 today. Yesterdays price was $3.20. find the percentage increase, round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answers

Answer:

7.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Yesterday’s price =$3.20

Today’s price =$3.45

Increase =today’s price - yesterday’s price

That’s $3.45 - $3.20

= $0.25

Percentage increase = increment /yesterday’s price x 100%

That’s $0.25/$3.20 x 100%

If 40 meters of a cloth costs Rs 1940 how many meters can be bought for Rs 727.5




Plz explain

Answers

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose x is the no. of cloth that can be bought in rs 727.5

then cost of 1meter cloth is rs 727.5×.....(i)

and cost of 40mtr cloth is rs 1940

then 1mtr cloth is 1940/40....(ii)

so from i and ii

we get

727.5/x = 1940/40

When using empirical data (data and information collected by scientists in an experiment), sometimes, that data will not form a perfect line on a graph. When this happens, the line that is created using a linear regression is known as the “Line of Best Fit.” The following speed data was collected from a car moving with a constant acceleration.

Time (s) Velocity (m/s)
2 13.1
4 19.8
6 28.1
8 34.6
What is the Line of Best Fit for this data? Perform a linear Regression on this table to find the equation.

Based on your equation, what was the car’s approximate initial velocity (at time=0)?

If the car continued at the same acceleration (meaning the slope of the line does not change), how fast would it be going in 15 seconds?

What is -(x + 4) - 3x = x in Distributive property?

Answers

Answer:

x = -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Original equation: -(x+4)-3x=x

Remember distributive property allows us to get rid of the parenthesis by bringing a multiplication from outside to inside a parenthesis.

-(x+4) = -x-4

= -x-4-3x=x

Now we combine like terms in this case we have (-x) and (-3x)

= -4x-4=x

Subtract x from both sides

= -4x-4=x

  -x      -x

----------------

 -5x-4=0

Add 4 to both sides

-5x-4=0

    +4 +4

---------------

-5x=4

Our final step is to divide both sides by -5

-5x=4

----  ----

-5    -5

x = -4/5

Hope this helps!!!

Simplify (a – b)(a2 – 5ab + 2)

Answers

Answer:

5ab^2-6a^2b+a^3-2b+2a

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplified expression of  expression  (a – b)(a² – 5ab + 2) is a³ – 6a²b + 5ab² + 2a – 2b

What is Expression?

An expression is combination of variables, numbers and operators.

To simplify the expression (a – b)(a² – 5ab + 2), we need to apply the distributive property, which states that:

(a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

Using this property, we can multiply the two binomials as follows:

(a – b)(a² – 5ab + 2) = a(a² – 5ab + 2) – b(a² – 5ab + 2)

Now we can distribute the terms of each binomial:

= a³ – 5a²b + 2a – a²b + 5ab² – 2b

Simplifying the terms, we can combine like terms:

= a³ – 6a²b + 5ab² + 2a – 2b

Therefore, the simplified expression is a³ – 6a²b + 5ab² + 2a – 2b

what is the equation for the line that is perpendicular to the x-axis and passes through the point (4, -7)?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular means to cross at a right angle (90 degrees).

so, any line perpendicular to the x-axis is parallel to the y-axis.

and any line parallel to the y-axis has only a defining x value. all points on that line have the same x value (while any value for y from -infinity to +infinity is valid).

the y-axis itself is

x = 0

the specified point here has an x value of 4.

so, the line we are looking for is

x = 4

to point out : this is NOT a function, because for the same x value we get more than 1 valid y values.

p = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles on a straight line add up to 180° so:

2p + 5 + 3p = 180° (simplify)

5p + 5 = 180° (subtract 5 from both sides)

5p = 175° (divide both sides by 5)

p = 35°

Hope this helps!

Answer:

p=35

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to add the two together and set them equal to 180, so 2p+5+3p=180 so 5p=175, so p=35.

All angles of a triangle will be equivalent to 180 degrees.

We start by subtracting first.

180 - 36 = 144

Look back at the triangle. FG and HG are congruent, which means the values of V and W will be the same.

The last step is to divide.

144 / 2 = 72

V = 72 & W = 72
