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 area of a sector with a central angle of 2pi/9 radians and a diameter of 20.6mm? Use 3.14 for Ali and round your ans
LuckyWell [14K]
- The area of the circle is:

 A=πr²

 A is the area of the circle.
 π=3.14
 r is the radius of the circle.

 - To calculate the area of <span> the sector indicated in the problem, you must apply the following formula:

 As=(</span>θ/2π)πr²

 As is the area of the sector.
 θ is the central angle (θ=2π/9)
 π=3.14
 r is the radius.

 - First, you must find the radius:

 r=Diameter/2
 r=20.6 mm/2
 r=10.3 mm

 - Now, you can substitute the values into the formula As=(θ/2π)πr². Then, you have:

 As=(θ/2π)πr²
 As=(2π/9/2π)(π)(10.3)²
 As=(π/9π)(π)(10.3)²
 As=(3.14/9x3.14)(3.14)(10.3)²

 - Finally, the area of the sector is:

 As= 37.01 mm²

What is the difference 7/78 - 3 1/4=
ZanzabumX [31]
     <span> here
7 7/8
= [ (8*7) + 7 ] / 8
= (56 + 7) / 8
=63 / 8

similarly,
3 1/4
=[ (4*3) + 1] / 4
= (12 + 1) / 4
= 13/4

----------------------------
now put the values
7 7/8 - 3 1/4
= 63/8 - 13/4
here, take LCM of 8 & 4 which is 8.
now,
[ (1*63) - (2 * 13) ] / 8
= (63 - 26) / 8
= 37/8
= 4 5/8........................[ here, divide 37 by 8 which gives reminder as 5 and divisible value as 4 ]</span>
