X=price of one jumbo popcorn
y=price of one chocolate chip cookies

$5.00=$5.00(100 cts / $)=500 cts
$6.00=$6.00(100 cts / $)=600 cts

We suggest this system of equations:

x+2y=500
x+4y=600

we solve this system of equations by reduction method.

-(x+2y=500)
  x+4y=600
----------------------
      2y=100    ⇒ y=100/2=50

x+2y=500
x+2(50)=500
x+100=500
x=500-100
x=400

solution: one chocolate chip cookie cost 50 cts.

Semmy [17]

Answer:

x = 5m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance flying out = 12 km  (headwind)

Distance flying back = 12 km (tailwind)

total distance = 12 + 12 =24 km

wind speed = 1km/h

speed going out (with headwind) = (x - 1) km/h

speed coming back (with tailwind) = (x + 1) km/h

Time taken to go out = distance going out / speed going out

= 12 / (x-1)

Time taken to come back = distance coming back / speed coming back

= 12 / (x+1)

total time = time taken to go out + time taken to come back

5 =[ 12/(x-1) ] + [ 12/(x-1)]

expanding this, we will get

5x² - 24x - 5 = 0

solving quadratic equation, we will get

x = -1/5 (impossible because speed cannot be negative)

or

x = 5 (answer)
