Answer:

$2.98

Step-by-step explanation:

Let price of 1 bag of chips be x

Let price of 1 jar of dipping sauce be y

From the 1st statement, we can write:

5x + 4y = 21.82

From the 2nd statement, we can write:

4x + 3y = 16.86

We will multiply 1st equation by 4 and 2nd equation by -5 to get:

4(5x + 4y = 21.82) = 20x + 16 y = 87.28

-5(4x + 3y = 16.86) = -20x -15y = -84.30

Adding, we get:

20x + 16 y = 87.28

-20x -15y = -84.30

-----------------------------

y = 2.98

This is price of 1 jar of dipping sauce - $2.98

Solve for the value of k.
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The value of K is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

I reversed it.

The tiny squares means 90⁰, so 90+49=139

All of these angles add up to 180⁰

So 180-139=41

The k equation equals 41⁰, so reverse it to find answer

41-1=40

40÷8=5

The given diagram is a scatter plot in which temperature is plotted against number of visitors.

As the number of visitors is rising with the rise in temperature, its a positive correlation.

As joining the dots is going to give a web of line segments, it is not going to be helpful to understand the trends.

The best way to understand the trends is to make the line of best Fit in such a way that the number of dots on either side are approximately the same.

I have attached the figure for your reference of the line of best fit.
