Let T = cost of a taco
Let S = cost of a salad

(2 tacos + 1 salad) + (8 % of 2 tacos and 1 salad) + 3 = 13.80

2T + S + .08(2T + S) + 3 = 13.80
2T + 2.5 + .08(2T + 2.5) + 3 = 13.80
2T + 2.5 + .16T + .20 + 3 = 13.80
2.16T + 5.7 = 13.80
2.16T = 8.10
T = 8.10/2.16 = $3.75

Check: 2T + S + .08(2T + S) + 3 = 13.80
2(3.75) + 2.50 + .08(2(3.75)+2.5) + 3 = 13.80
7.5 + 2.5 + .08(10) + 3 = 13.8
13.80 = 13.80

Find the area of the rectangle.
aev [14]

Answer:

69y+23

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle will always be length times width or width times length, doesn't matter which way.

In this case, the width is 3y+1 miles and the length is 23 miles. So, the area is 23(3y+1)=23*3*y+23*1=69*y+23.

So, the area is \boxed{69y+23} and we're done.

Ilya [14]
In order to get the answer to this problem, first we have to find out how many pounds does one case of pancake mix have. We know that one box has 1.3 pounds of pancake mix. We also know that one case has 12 boxes. So first, we multiply 1.3 to 12.  The answer we will get is 15.6. One case of pancake mix has a total of 15.6 pounds of pancake mix. Now we also know there are 7.5 cases that George bought. So in order to get the total pounds George bought, we multiply 15.6 to 7.5. So all in all, George bought 117 pounds of Pancake Mix.
