Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost of apple pie be x and the cost of chocolate pie be y.

We then express the situation as:

2y+4x=38\ \ \ \ \ \ ...eqtn1\\\\14y+12x=138\ \ \  \....eqtn2

#Make y the subject of the formula in equation 1 then substitute in 2:

2y=38-4x\\y=19-2x\\\\\therefore 14(19-2x)+12x=138\\\ \ 266-28x+12x=138\\\ \ 128=16x\\x=8\\\\y=19-2\times8=3

Hence, the cost of a chocolate pie is $3

The values that completes the table are 28, 9, 33, 32 and -3

<h3>Tables and values.</h3>

Tables are used to represents the dependent and independent variable of a function. They are used to formulate function.

From the given table, we are to think of any dependent value and subtract 3 from it to get the equivalent independent value.

From the third column;

a3-3 = 25

a3 = 25 + 3

a3 = 28

For the fourth column

a4 = 12 - 3

a4 = 9

For the fifth column

a5-3 = 30

a5 = 30 + 3

a5 = 33

For the sixth column

a6-3 = 29

a6 = 29 + 3

a6 = 32

For the seventh column

0-3 = a7a

a7 =  0 - 3

a7 = -3

Hence the values that completes the table are 28, 9, 33, 32 and -3
