Answer:

The number of buckets of apples sold was 12 and the number of buckets of peaches sold was 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

a -----> number of buckets of apples sold

p -----> number of buckets of peaches sold

we know that

$4a+6p=192$ ------> equation A

$p=2a$ -----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A

$4a+6(2a)=192$

solve for a

$4a+12a=192$

$16a=192$

$a=12$

Find the value of p

$p=2(12)=24$

therefore

The number of buckets of apples sold was 12 and the number of buckets of peaches sold was 24

Jenna concludes that (4,9) is the solution to the system of these two equations. which of the following justifies her conclusion

nalin [4]

Answer:

a. The point (4,9) appears in both tables

Explanation:

Note: This question can be solved without the need of the tables

A solution of a system of equations is defined as a point (or set of points) that satisfy both equations

This means that, this point should belong to all the equations in the system

Now, a table is used to show a set of points that belong to a certain line

This means that, all vales in the table belong to the line they represent

Since the point (4,9) appears in both tables, therefore, it belongs to both lines and, therefore, is a solution to the system of equations consisting of these two lines

Hope this helps :)

Differentiate with respect to t.. y = b cos t + t2 sin t

Marysya12 [62]

We are given with the expression y = b cos t + t2 sin t and is asked to differentiate the function in terms of t. Based in the power law and law of products, we apply these to the given expresssion. the derivative is y' = -b sin t + t^2 * (cos t) + sin t * 2t. This is equal to y' = sin t (-b +2t) + t^2 cos t.
