Tara's website, verdantveggies.com, specializes in the sale of rare or unusual vegetable seeds. Tara sells packets of sweet-pepper seeds for $2.85 each and packets of hot-pepper seeds for $4.29 each. She also offers a 16-packet mixed-pepper assortment combining packets of both types of seeds at $3.30 per packet. How many packets of each type of seed are in the assortment?
Answers
Answer:
Let's define the variables:
S = # of sweet pepper seeds in the mix pack.
H = # of hot pepper seeds in the mix pack.
Let's suppose that $3.30 is the mean price of the seeds in the mix pack.
Then we have two equations:
S + H = 16.
(S*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
Now let's solve this system.
The first step is isolating one variable in one of the equations, i will isolate S in the first equation.
S = 16 - H.
Now we can replace this in the second equation, and solve it for H.
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29)/16 = $3.30
( (16 - H)*$2.85 + H*$4.29) = $3.30*16 = $52.80
$45.60 + H*$1.44 = $52.80
H*$1.44 = $52.80 - $45.60 = $7.20
H = $7.20/$1.44 = 5
Then in the mix pack there are 5 hot-pepper seeds.
And the other 11 must be sweet-pepper seeds
Algebraic equations are equations that contain unknown variables.
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.
Let's represent:is
The number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds = s
The number of packets of hot-pepper seeds = h
Based on this question, our system of equations are:
$2.85 x s + $4.29 x h = $3.30(16)
2.85s + 4.29h = 52.8...........Equation 1
s + h = 16...........Equation 2
s = 16 - h
We substitute 16 - h for s in Equation 1
2.85(16 - h) + 4.29h = 52.8
45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8
Subtract 45.6 from both sides
45.6 - 45.6 -2.85h + 4.29h = 52.8 - 45.6
1.44h = 7.2
h = 5
There are 5 hot-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Solving for the number of sweet-pepper seeds.
s = 16 - h
s = 16 - 5
s = 11
There are 11 sweet-pepper seeds in the assortment.
Therefore, the number of packets of sweet-pepper seeds is 11 and the number of packets of hot-pepper seeds is 5.

The toco toucan, the largest member of the toucan family, possesses the largest beak relative to body size of all birds. This exaggerated feature has received various interpretations, such as being a refined adaptation for feeding. However, the large surface area may also be an important mechanism for radiating heat (and hence cooling the bird) as outdoor temperature increases. Here are data for beak heat loss, as a percent of total body heat loss, at various temperatures in degrees Celsius:
Temperature (degrees Celsius) 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30

so, putting in 3 for g gives you
[tex]3(3) + 5 = 14[/tex]
which then goes over
[tex]((3) - 1 = 2)((3) + 6 = 9) = 18[/tex]
which gives

however, this can be reduced to

okay so basically when you have a triangle, the side that is directly across from the angle you are looking for is the "opposite". here is an attachment.
A side opposite of an angle in a triangle is the angle that’s not adjacent to it.
In other words, an angle will touch 2 sides in a triangle. The one it doesn’t is the opposite angle.

bob is on his way home in his car. he has driven 30 miles so far, which is three-fifths of the way home. what is the total length of his drive?
Answers
The length of Bob's drive as a fraction = 5/5
Let the length of his total drive be = x
30 miles driven by Bob as a fraction =
= 3/5 of x = 30
= 3/5x = 30
= 5/x = 30 ÷ 3 ( transposing ×3 from LHS to RHS changes ×3 to ÷3 )
=5/x = 10
= x = 10 × 5 ( transposing ÷5 from LHS to RHS changes ÷5 to ×5 )
= x = 50
Now we have to see what is =
= 2/5 of 50
= 2/5 × 50
= 100/5
= 20 miles
So , total length of Bob's drive = 30 miles + 20 miles = 50 miles .
∴ The total length of Bob's drive is 50 miles .
