Answer: Hamburger: $6.5

Drink ;$2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, we have to write an equation for each one

<em>Christoper</em>

  • 5h +10d = $52.50

Where :

h = price of a hamburger

d = price of a drink

<em>Wyatt:</em>

  • 2h + 9d = $31

Now we have the system of equations:

5h+10d=52.50(1)

2h+9d=31 (2)

Isolating "h" from (1)

5h = 52.50 -10d

h = (52.50 -10d)/5

h = 10.5 -2d

Replacing "h" in (2)

2h+9d=31

2(10.5-2d) +9d=31

21 -4d +9d=31

-4d+9d=31-21

5d= 10

d= 10/5

d= $2

Finally, replacing d in (1)

5h+10d=52.50

5h+10(2) =52.50

5h+20=52.50

5h=52.50-20

5h=32.50

h= 32.50/5

h=$6.5

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope intercept form
yan [13]

The equation of the given line is y = 5/6x - 2

The standard equation of a line in slope-intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + b

m is the slope of the line

b is the y-intercept

Using the coordinate point (0, -2) and (-6, 3)

Slope m = 3-(-2)/-6-0

m = 5/6

Since the line cuts the y-axis at y = -2, hence the y-intercept is -2.

Find the equation of a line;

y = mx + b

y = 5/6x + (-2)

y = 5/6x - 2

Hence the equation of the given line is y = 5/6x - 2

Help asap grade 5 math help fast help quick !!!
Alja [10]

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

A

\frac{5}{6} × 13 = \frac{5(13)}{6} = \frac{65}{6} = 10 \frac{5}{6} < 13

B

4 × 13 = 52 > 13

C

\frac{3}{4} × 13 = \frac{3(13)}{4} = \frac{39}{4} = 4 \frac{3}{4} < 13

D

\frac{10}{10} × 13 = 1 × 13 = 13

Band D are equal to or greater than 13
