Here are the equations that are represented by the scenarios:

4x + 2y = $14 (Joe)
3x + y = $9 (Becca) or y = 9 - 3x

To find the cost of each burger and fry you will solve the second equation for y and substitute it in for the y in the first equation.  This will put everything in terms of x, the price of a fry.

4x + 2(9 - 3x) = $14
4x + 18 - 6x = 14
-2x +18 = 14
     -18     -18
    <u>-2x</u> = <u>-4</u>
    -2      -2
     x = 2

Fry cost $2, and burgers cost (9 - 3 x 2) or $3.

What is the diameter of this circle if the circumference is 30 x inches?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

<h2>10 inches</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the circumference= 30 in

we know that the formula for circumference is

C= 2\pi r

30= 2*3.142*r\\\\r= \frac{30}{2*3.142} \\\r= \frac{30}{6.248}\\\r= 4.77 in

The diameter is 2*r= 4.77*2=9.55 in

Approximately the diameter is 10 inches

Does anyone know the answer to this?
bezimeni [28]

Hey there!


First, let's find s:

s = (5 + 6 + 7) /2 = 9


Second, let's plug in the numbers into the formula:

A = \sqrt{9(9-7)(9-5)(9-6)}


Third, let's simplify the numbers to get one number under the square root:

A = [tex]\sqrt{216}


Fourth, we'll find the square root of 216 to get the area:

A = 14.697


Therefore, your answer is A.


Hope this helps!! :)

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we subtract 2y on both sides:

-24 = 12y

Then, we divide 12 on both sides:

y = -2

And we're done ^^ hope this helps!
