Answer:
-1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = rise / run
= (1 - -7) / (-1 -3)
= 8/-4
= -1/2.
Answer:
$5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of one burger be $b while the cost of one small fries be s
2 burgers and 2 small fries cost $14
This means that;
2b + 2s = 14
divide both sides by 2
b + s = 7 •••••••• (i)
Three burgers and four small fries cost $23
Mathematically;
3b + 4s = 23 •••••••• (ii)
From i , we can see that s = 7- b
we can now substitute this into equation ii
3b + 4(7-b) = 23
3b + 28 -4b = 23
4b -3b = 28 -23
b = $5
one burger costs $5
Answer:
Diego is 14 years old.
Sister is 19
Step-by-step explanation:
x = Diego's age
<u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>4</u>
2x-9 = 2
First to get rid of the fraction we multiply each side by 2
2(2x-9) = 2((x+24)/2)
4x-18 = x+24
The we isolate x
4x-18 = x+24
<u>-x+18 -x+18</u>
<u>3x</u> = <u>42</u> Now we divide each side 3
3 3
x = 14
So Diego is 14
Now we can solve for his sister. We can use one of the two equations from earlier to do this.
Plug 14 in for x and then solve for his sister
2(14)-9
28-9
19
His sister is 19
