Answer:
They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that they buy x hotdogs and y popcorn
∵ They buy a total of 11 hotdogs and popcorn
∵ The number of hotdogs is x and the number of popcorn is y
∴ x + y = 11 ⇒ (1)
∵ Hot dogs cost $2.50 each
∵ Popcorn costs $1.00 each
∵ They spend $20 on hot dogs and popcorn
→ Multiply x by 2.5 and y by 1, add the products and equate the sum by 20
∴ 2.5(x) + 1(y) = 20
∴ 2.5x + y = 20 ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
→ Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)
∵ (2.5x - x) + (y - y) = (20 - 11)
∴ 1.5x + 0 = 9
∴ 1.5x = 9
→ Divide both sides by 1.5 to find x
∴ x = 6
→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y
∵ 6 + y = 11
→ Subtract 6 from both sides
∴ 6 - 6 + y = 11 - 6
∴ y = 5
∴ They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn
Answer:
1. x = -7
2. x = 6/13
3. x = 7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
1. x = 21 / -3
x = -7
2. 13x = 6
x = 6 / 13
x = 6/13
3. -12x = -7
x = -7 / -12
x = 7/12

Answer:
y =47.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
First eliminate the fractions by multiplying through by the LCM of 7 and 3 which is 21:
21* 6[y-2]/7-21*12 = 21*2[y-7]/3
18(y - 2) - 252 = 14(y - 7)
18y -36 - 252 = 14y - 98
18y - 14y = -98 + 36 + 252
4y = 190
y = 190/4
y = 47.5.
