Drinks, x, and popcorn, y.
125.50 = 12y+7x
87.50=6y+8x

To solve for the cost of drinks, x, isolate the variable
125.50 = 12y + 7x
subtract 12y from both sides
125.50 - 12y = 7x
divide both sides by 7
125.50/7 -12/7y = x

plug that into the other equation
<span>87.50=6y+8x
87.50 = 6y + 8(125.50/7 - 12/7y)
Distribute </span><span>8(125.50/7 - 12/7y)
Then combine like terms
then subtract and divide to isolate y</span>
Solve for y
y = 7.25

Plug that into the first equation to solve for x
<span>125.50 = 12y+7x
125.50 = 12(7.25) + 7x
125.50 = 87 + 7x
subtract 87 from both sides
38.5 = 7x
divide both sides by 7
5.5 = x

There, you have the cost of the drinks, $5.5, and the cost of the popcorn, $7.25.

To check: you would plug in what you got for x and y into the original equations and see if they equal right... I did it on paper and it was right!!

Hope this helps</span>

prohojiy [21]
Consider the triangles formed by the lines of sight in parts a and b. In part a, the distance from the horizontal to the base of the antenna is 82.0*tan31.0º; in part b, the distance from the horizontal to the top is 82.0*tan34.2º. The antenna height is the difference between these 

<span>h = 82.0*tan34.2º - 82.0*tan31.0º = 82.0*(tan34.2º - tan31.0º) = 6.46 m</span>
