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

How to put 412.638 in expanded form using decimals
sergeinik [125]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


400 + 10 + 2 + 0.6 + 0.03 + 0.008.


Explanation:


To write a number in expanded form, we use place values.


4 is in the hundreds place; this makes its value 400.

1 is in the tens place; this makes its value 10.

2 is in the ones place; this makes its value 2.

6 is in the tenths place; this makes its value 0.6.

3 is in the hundredths place; this makes its value 0.03.

8 is in the thousandths place; this makes its value 0.008.


To write this together, we find the sum:

400 + 10 + 2 + 0.6 + 0.03 + 0.008.
