Question

A 10−pound package of cookies costs (y + 1) dollars while a 6−pound package costs (y − 1) dollars. If the price per pound of cookies is the same for both packages, the equation below can be used to solve for y.

Answer 1

\[\frac{ y+1 }{ 10 } = \frac{ y-1 }{ 6 }\]

Answer 2

6(y+1)=10(y-1)
6y+6 = 10y-10
4y=16
y=?

Answer 3

8

Answer 4

?

Answer 5

Divide both sides by 4.

Answer 6

4y = 16
4y/4 = 16/4
y = ?

Answer 7

@Albany_Goon, what is 16 divided by 4?

Answer 8

4

Answer 9

Yes, so y=4

A greenhouse that specializes in growing geraniums is divided into sections. The number of geranium pots in each section depends on the number of sprinklers in that section.

There are x(7x − 2) pots of red geraniums and (x + 3)^2 pots of pink geraniums in a section with x sprinklers.

Which simplified expression represents the total number of red and pink geranium pots in a section with x sprinklers?

Answer 17

i think it should be like this but u should confirm it
x(7x − 2) + (x + 3)^2
7x^2 - 2x + x^2 + 9 + 6x
8x^2 + 4x + 9
i think this should be ur required expression. u can also factorize it

Answer 18

yes thnx you

V U (O ∩ L) = {84,49,49,72,67,387}
so,
84+49+49+72+67+387=708
let me check there must some other mistake too

Answer 25

can u check ur choices 1 more time

Answer 26

those are the choices

Answer 27

is this is asked V U (~O ∩ L)?

Answer 28

yes

Answer 29

then the ans should be 708

Answer 30

ok thnx

Answer 31

thats not one of them

Answer 32

i know but any other doesnt make sense
