Solving the system of equations, it is found that 120 cups of lemonade and 160 brownies were sold.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

The variables are given as follows:

  • Variable x: Number of cups of lemonade sold.
  • Variable y: Number of brownies sold.

In this problem, the system is:

  • x + y = 280.
  • 2.5x + 1.5y = 540.

From the first equation, y = 280 - x, hence, replacing in the second:

2.5x + 1.5y = 540

2.5x + 1.5(280 - x) = 540

x = 540 - 1.5 x 280

x = 120

y = 280 - x = 280 - 120 = 160.

120 cups of lemonade and 160 brownies were sold.

Find the height of triangle
Sophie [7]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide 120 by two and get 60. Now do 120-60 to get 60. Set up proportion

60/x = x/60.

Cross multiply

x^2 = 3600

and now find the square root of 3600

What is the lateral area and the surface area of the cone shown below? Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Figure is not draw
Lelu [443]

Answer:

LA = 1,187.5 ft^{2} and SA = 1,803.3 ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given, the radius 'r' of the cone is 14 ft and the slant height 'l' is given by 27 ft.

Now, we know that the formula for the lateral area = \pi *r*l

i.e. lateral are = \pi *14*27

i.e. lateral area = 1187.52 ft^{2}

Hence, lateral area rounded off to nearest tenth is 1187.5 ft^{2}.

Next, we know the formula for surface area of a cone = \pi *r*(l+r)

i.e. surface area = \pi*14*(27+14)

i.e. surface area = 1803.27 ft^{2}

Hence, the surface area rounded off to the nearest tenth is 1803.3 ft^{2}.
