5lb($4.20/2lb)=$10.50
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So you do 3.29*12.6=41.454. Since we are dealing with money we round to get $41.45
Answer:
A (a = 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
A coordinate point is always in the form (x,y) that means the first point is always x-coordinate and the second point is always y-coordinate.
The equation given is:
5x + y = 8
The point is (a,3), so that means x = a and y = 3
We substitute the values into the equation and find a. Shown below:
5x + y = 8
5(a) + (3) = 8
5a + 3 = 8
5a = 8 - 3
5a = 5
a = 5/5
a = 1
Answer choice A is right
Tabitha Tidbits costs $7 per bag, and Figaro Flakes is $5.50 per bag.
You need to set up a system of equations. Use "x" for Tabitha Tidbits and "y" for Figaro Flakes, and let the total cost of each trip equal c. Using the equation ax+by=c, substitute the cost of each trip in for c, and the number of bags for each food for a and b respectively. The two equations will be:
3x+4y=43
3x+6y=54
Isolate x in the first equation and you will get:
x=(43-4y)/3
Substitute the above equation for x into the other equation:
3*((43-4y)/3)+6y=54
Isolate y in this equation, and you will get 11/2, which is 5.5
So the cost of one bag of Figaro Flakes is $5.50
Now substitute this into the equation where you isolated x:
(43-4(5.5))/3
You will get x=7, so a bag of Tabitha Tidbits is $7
