Hello!
Change each mixed number to an improper fraction to make it easier
2 3/8 = 19/8
5 3/4 = 23/4
Now, multiply
19/8 × 23/4 = 437/32 = 13 21/32
Answer ⇒ 13 21/32
Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!
p.s if you want to know how to use another method to solve these problems ( Substition) , just let me know in a comentary down here
Hello,
so all you have to do is match the abbreviations to the triangles. The abbreviations stand for what is the SAME in both triangles, denoted by similar markings on equal sides and angles.
Abbreviations:
SSS = Side-Side-Side
SAS = Side-Angle-Side
ASA = Angle-Side-Angle
AAS = Angle-Angle-Side
HL = Hypotenuse-Leg
* Note - the angle side angle must go around the triangle in that order. ASA has the side BETWEEN the congruent angles.. SSA does NOT work.
(9.) ASA
(10.) AAS
(11.) SSS
(12.) No way to tell if congruent. (only 3 angles no side)
(13.) ASA
(14.) SAS
(15.) HL
B would be the correct answer. If you take 4:13 in order to form a ratio equal to that you have to multiply both sides of the ratio by the same number. 4*4=16 and 13*4=52
Answer:117.59
