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

Francine has a piece of wood that is five 5 5/12 feet long she uses three 3 1/4 feet of the wood from a science project how much
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

4/3 ft

Corrected question;

Francine has a piece of wood that is five 5/12 feet long she uses three 1/4 feet of the wood from a science project how much for just Francine have left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Francine has a piece of wood that is five 5/12 feet long.

Total amount of wood T = 5 × 5/12 ft = 25/12 ft

she uses three 1/4 feet of the wood from a science project.

Amount of wood Used U = 3 × 1/4 = 3/4 ft

The amount of wood left equals the total amount of wood minus the amount of wood used;

The amount of wood left L = T - U = 25/12 - 3/4

L = 25/12 - 9/12

L = 16/12

L = 4/3 ft
