Answer: A

Hope this is helpful.

Step-by-step explanation:

Try to solve using simultaneous equations with each answer given.  

x + 2y = 5  

x = 5 - 2y  

Plug this into each equation  

A 2(5 - 2y) + 4y = 3  

10 - 4y + 4y = 3  

10 = 3 in consistent  

B 5(5 - 2y) + 2y = 3  

25 - 10 y + 2y = 3  

25 - 8y = 3  

8y = 22  

y = 2.75  

Using original equation solve for x  

5x + 2(2.75) = 3  

5x + 5.5 = 3  

5x = -2.5  

x = -0.5  

Using original equation,  

(-0.5) + 2 (2.75) = 5  

-0.5 + 5.5 = 5 consistent  

C 6x + 12y = 30  

6(5 - 2y) + 12y = 30  

30 - 12y + 12 y = 30 consistent for every value of y  

D 3(5 - 2y) + 4y = 8  

15 - 6y + 4y = 8  

- 2y = -7  

y = 3.5  

x = 5 - 2y  

x = 5 - 7  

x = -2  

Solving for x  

3(-2) + 4(3.5) = -6 + 14 = 8 consistent  

So A is the correct answer

Six pairs of socks cost as much as 1 coat, 2 pairs of jeans cost as much as 3 pairs of shoes, and 4 pairs of socks cost as much
REY [17]
(1) 6 pairs of socks = 1 coat
(2) 2 pairs of jeans = 3 pairs of shoes
(3) 4 pairs of socks = 1 pair of jeans

the last two points are irrelevant becuase we just need socks and coats. 
6 pairs of socks are equal to 1 coat. 
we need 64 pairs of socks. 
so, 64 ÷ 6 = 10.67

so we'll need 10.67 coats for 64 pairs of socks. 

i'm not sure if you've typed up the correct numbers becuase i don't think the answer would be expressed as a decimal. 

unless we say that we need 11 pairs of coats? 

perhaps reread the question again and make sure you've typed it up correctly
xD i hope i've helped.

An 8-sided die is formed when two square pyramids are attached by their bases. The perimeter of the base shape is 6 centimeters.
Leona [35]
Consider one pyramid
Side length of base = 1.5cm and its height is 1 cm
Slant height of one of the lateral faces =  sqrt(1^2 + 0.75^2) =  1.25 cm
Area of one of the triangular faces = 0.5 * 1.5* 1.25 =  0.9375 cm^2

There are 8  of these so the required surface area = 8 * 0.9375 
=  7.5 cm^2 Answer

You have just opened a new dance club, Swing Haven, but are unsure of how high to set the cover charge (entrance fee). One week
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

q = -6p + 104

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear function:

A linear function has the following format:

q = mp + b

In which m is the slope and b is the q-intercept.

One week you charged $4 per guest and averaged 80 guests per night. The next week you charged $10 per guest and averaged 44 guests per night.

This means that we have these following points: (4,80), (10,44).

Finding the slope:

With a pair of points, the slope is given by the change in q divided by the change in p.

Change in q: 44 - 80 = -36

Change in p: 10 - 4 = 6

Slope: m = \frac{-36}{6} = -6

So

q = -6p + b

Finding b:

We replace one of the points. Replacing (4,80).

q = -6p + b

80 = -6*4 + b

b = 104

So

q = -6p + 104

A glass bead has the shape of a rectangular prism with a smaller rectangular prism removed. What is the volume of the glass that
olganol [36]

The volume of the removed portion is 35 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The length× width× height (L×B×H) of the outer part = 3 cm×3 cm×7 cm

The length× width× height (l×b×h) of the inner part = 2 cm×2 cm×7 cm

To find the volume of the removed portion.

Formula

The volume of the removed portion = volume of outer part - volume of inner part

Volume of rectangular prism = l×b×h

Now,

Volume of outer part = 3×3×7 cm³ = 63 cm³

Volume of inner part = 2×2×7 cm³ = 28 cm³

Hence,

The volume of the removed portion = 63-28 cm³ = 35 cm³
