Answer:

the price of each soda is $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that there are two unknowns; the price of each soda  (let's assign the letter "s" to it), and the price of the basket of fries 9let's assign the letter "b" to it)

We can then write two equations using the information on the total price for each order:

(a)    4 s + 4 b = 16

(b)   4 s + 3 b = 13.75

we can now subtract term by term equation (b) from equation (a), and obtain:

4 s - 4 s + 4 b - 3 b =  16 - 13.75

0 + b = 2.25

So now that we know the price of each basket of fries ($ 2.25) , we can use that info in either equation and solve for "s". Let's use equation (a) for example:

4 s + 4 (2.25) = 16

4 s + 9 = 16

4 s = 16 - 9

4 s = 7

s = 7/4

s = 1.75

So, the price of each soda is $1.75

The circumference is 12 mile. What is the diameter?
photoshop1234 [79]

To find the diameter of a circle, using only the circumference, you need to divide the circumference by π, or 3.14.

So in this case, you must divide 12 by 3.14, which gives you 3.82.

I even double checked this, and should be correct then.
