Answer:

<h2>They spent $4 per hour hiked.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

They spent

  • $9.00 in water.
  • $5.00 in protein bars.
  • $3.00 in peanuts.

Total cost $17.

Now, if the hiked from 11.30 AM to 3.45 PM, then they hike for 4 hours and 15 minutes. However, we need to transform those minutes into hours before we find the rate

15min\frac{1hr}{60min}=\frac{1}{4}hr=0.25hr

So, they hiked for 4.25 hours.

Then, to find the unit rate of money spent per hour hiked, we just need to divide $17 by 4.25 hr.

\frac{\$17}{4.25hr}=4\frac{\$}{hr}

Therefore, they spent $4 per hour hiked.

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

$50 per ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although it is tempting to keep raising the price for a higher profit, if you raise the price by too much, people will stop buying tickets and you will not gain as much money as you could have gotten with, say, $50 per plate.

The more you raise the price, the less tickets you can sell.

Hope this helps!

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

2(y+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y --->Mala's age

x---> sister's age

we know that

x=y+4 ---> equation A

so

The sum of ages of the sisters is

x+y

substitute equation A in the expression of the sum of ages
