The number of chicken dish is 131 dishes while the number of lobster dishes is 119 dishes

<h3>How to find the number of each type of dish.</h3>

Let

  • x = number of chicken dish and
  • y = number of lobster dish
<h3>How to determine the equations for the linear system</h3>

Since it cost $40 per dish for chicken dish, the total cost of chicken dish is 40x.

Also, since it cost $70 per dish for lobster dish, the total cost of lobster dish is 70y

So, the total cost of dish is T = 40x + 70y

Also, we know that the total cost of dish is $13,570.

So, 40x + 70y = 13570  (1)

Also, there are going to be 250 guest at the dinner and thus 250 dishes.

So, the total number of dishes is x + y = 250

So, x + y = 250 (2)

So, the equations of the linear system are

40x + 70y = 13570  (1)

x + y = 250 (2)

<h3>How to determine the solution for the linear system</h3>

Since

40x + 70y = 13570  (1)

x + y = 250 (2)

From (2), x = 250 - y

Substituting x into (1), we have

40x + 70y = 13570  (1)

40(250 - y) + 70y = 13570  (1)

10000 - 40y + 70y = 13570  

30y = 13570 - 10000

30y = 3570

y = 3570/30

y = 119

Substituting y = 119 into x, we have

x = 250 - y

x = 250 - 119

x = 131

Therefore, the number of chicken dish is 131 dishes while the number of lobster dishes is 119 dishes

Pedro bought a skateboard last week. The list price of the skateboard was $64.90. He has a 20% coupon. He has to pay 8.5%
Lapatulllka [165]
Take the original price and times it by .8 (you could times it by .2 and then subtract from the original price but multiplying it by .8 is much easier) 64.9x.8= 51.92 take your discounted price and multiply it by 1.085 to account for the sales tax (you multiply by 1.085 to account for the price of the item and the tax you could times it by .085 and then add it on to the price of the item but this way it shortens the amount of steps needed) 51.92x1.085= 56.3332
Round to the nearest cent
Answer=$56.33

Find 15 + (-72) show your work<br><br> I will give Brainly! Pls help!
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: -57

Step-by-step explanation:

15 + ( - 72)

Distribute

15 - 72

When this happens, you subtract the smaller number by the bigger one, then put the sign that was on the bigger number on what you get.

72 - 15 = 57

Put a negative sign on 57

-57

15 + (-72) = -57

Is 9.521521521 rational or irrational
enyata [817]

If the numbers after the decimal terminate, yes, it's rational.

9.521521521 = 9,521,521,521 / 1,000,000,000

If they don't terminate, but the pattern continues (which I suspect is the case here), yes, it's still rational.

If <em>x</em> = 9.521521521…, then

1000<em>x</em> = 9521.521521521…

Subtract <em>x</em> from this to eliminate the fractional part:

1000<em>x</em> - <em>x</em> = 9521.521521521… - 9.521521521…

999<em>x</em> = 9512

<em>x</em> = 9512/999

If they don't terminate, but the pattern does <em>not</em> continue, meaning the next few digits could be something random like

9.521521521<u>19484929271283583457</u>…

then the number would be irrational.
