Let
x = loaves of bread
y = batches of muffins
You must make a system of two equations with two unknowns that describe the problem
3.5x + 2.5y = 17 --- (1)
0.75x + 0.75y = 4.5 --- (2)
Resolving we have
x = 6-y (from (2))
replacing in (1)
3.5 (6-y) + 2.5y = 17
21 - 3.5y + 2.5y = 17
y = 21-17 = 4
Then substituting in (2)
x = 6-y = 6-4 = 2

Answer:
3/40
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 2 square root of 3
The square of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
You can use Pythagoras' Theorem to calculate QR:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = QR^2
25 + 144 = QR^2
169 = QR^2
This means that the square root of 169cm is QR, which is 13cm.
SR is equal to QR, which means that SR is 13cm.
