You sell small candles ($4 each) and large candles ($9 each) at a craft fair. You collect $154 selling a total of 31 candles. Write a system of equations to represent this scenario and solve it by elimination. How many small candles did you sell? How many large candles did you sell?

Which of the following can be used to explain a statement in a geometric proof?

Nthe opening scene of the movie raiders of the lost ark, indiana jones replaces a golden statue with a bag of sand. the platform on which the statue is placed is designed to detect the mass of the statue. if the bag of sand has a different mass than the statue, then a mechanism triggers and destruction ensues. the density of gold is about 20\text{ g/cm}^320 g/cm 3 20, space, g, slash, c, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. the density of sand can be estimated at 2.5\text{ g/cm}^32.5 g/cm 3 2, point, 5, space, g, slash, c, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. the gold statue can be modeled as a cylinder with height 25\text{ cm}25 cm25, space, c, m and radius 8\text{ cm}8 cm8, space, c, m. in terms of \piπpi, what is the mass of sand indiana jones needs to avoid triggering the mechanism?

As a project for math class, two students devised a game in which 3 black marbles and 2 red marbles are put into a bag. first the players must decide who is playing black marbles and who is playing red marbles. then each player takes a turn at drawing a marble, noting the color, replacing the marble in the bag, and then drawing a second marble and noting the color before returning it to the bag. the point scheme for the game is detailed in the table below. point values for marble game black marble points red marble points both black: +2 points both red: +4 points different colors: –1 point different colors: –1 point both red: 0 points both black: 0 points
