Answer:

3d + 4p = $37.25

5d + 2p = $38.75

Actual Answer:

Bag of popcorn is $5

A drink is $5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let drinks = d

Let popcorn = p

Noah: 3d + 4p = $37.25

Other: 5d + 2p = $38.75

Choose a variable to eliminate (We'll choose p)

3d + 4p = $37.25

(5d + 2p = $38.75) -2

Distribute

-10d - 4p = -77.5

The -4p cancels out the 4p, then we combine

-7d = -40.25

Divide both sides by -7

-7d/-7 = -40.25/-7

d = 5.75

Back to 3d + 4p = $37.25

Substitute d with 5.75

3(5.75) + 4p = $37.25

17.25 + 4p = 37.25

Move the constant to the other side

17.25 + 4p = 37.25

-17.25           -17.25

4p = 20

Divide both sides by 4

4p/4 = 20/4

p = 5

What is the discontinuity and zero of the function f(x) = the quantity of 3 x squared plus x minus 4, all over x minus 1? A. Dis
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The correct option is D. Discontinuity at (1, 7), zero at (negative four thirds, 0)  

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The function is given to be : }f(x)=\frac{3x^2+x-4}{x-1}\\\\\implies f(x)=\frac{(3x+4)(x-1)}{(x-1)}

To find the point of discontinuity :

Put the denominator equal to 0

⇒ x - 1 = 0

⇒ x = 1

Also, if the factor (x - 1) gets cancel, then it becomes a hole rather than a asymptote , ⇒ y = 3x + 4 at x = 1

⇒ y = 7

So, Point of discontinuity : (1, 7)

And the zero is : after cancelling the factor (x - 1) put the remaining factor = 0

⇒ 3x + 4 = 0

⇒ 3x = -4

⇒ x = negative four thirds ( zero of the function)

Therefore, The correct option is D. Discontinuity at (1, 7), zero at (negative four thirds, 0)
