Aiden and Haisem are going to eat the same amount of hamburgers and fries, but from different restaurants. Aiden goes to Burger

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

the burgers be 3 and fries be 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Let us assume burgers be x

And, the fries be y

Now according to the questiojn

1.25x + 0.50y = $4.75

1.50x + 0.99y = $6.48

Now multiply by 1.2 in the first equation

1.50x + 0.6y = $5.70

1.50x + 0.99y = $6.48

-0.39y = -0.78

y = 2

Now put the value of y in any of the above equation

1.25x + 0.50(2) = $4.75

x = 3

Hence, the burgers be 3 and fries be 2

Pamela drove her car 99 kilometers and used 9 liters of fuel. She wants to know how many kilometers (k) she can drive with 12 li

masya89 [10]

Answer:

132 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Pamela drove her car 99 kilometers and used 9 liters of fuel.

To find: Number of kilometers Pamela drove in 12 liters of fuel.

Solution:

It is given that Pamela drove her car 99 kilometers and used 9 liters of fuel. Also the relationship between kilometers and fuel is proportional.

So, let us assume that she can travel x kilometers in 12 liters of fuel.

By proportionality we have,

$99:9 :: x:12$

$\frac{99}{9} =\frac{x}{12}$

$11=\frac{x}{12}$

$x=12\times11$

$x=132$

Hence, she can travel 132 kilometers in 12 liters of petrol.
