On Monday Harold picked up four donuts and two large coffees for the office staff. He paid 4.08. On Tuesday Melinda picked up tw
Mandarinka [93]
One way to look at this is to make 2 equations and treat it as a set of equations. We will make the cost of a donut equal to x, and the cost of a coffee equal to y.

Harold's order:
4x + 2y = 4.08

Melinda's order:
2x + 3y = 3.92

To combine these equations, we need to cancel out either x or y:
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>2x + 3y = 3.92
</span>
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>4x + 6y = 7.84
</span>
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>-4x - 6y = -7.84
</span>
We can now combine these equations:
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>-4x - 6y = -7.84
</span>
-4y = -3.76

y = 0.94

Therefore the cost of a large coffee is $0.94. We can plug this into either original equation to find the cost of a donut.
<span>4x + 2y = 4.08
</span>4x + 2(0.94) = 4.08
4x + 1.88 = 4.08
4x = 2.20
x = 0.55

The cost of a donut is $0.55, and the cost of a large coffee is $0.94.

Step-by-step explanation:

Patrick needs \dfrac34 cups of orange juice.

Capacity of measuring of cup = \dfrac18 cup

To find the number of \dfrac18 cups required, we will divide required quantity by \dfrac18.

Required number of \dfrac18 cups  = \dfrac34\div\dfrac18=\dfrac34\times8=3\times2=6

Hence, six \dfrac18 cups are required for \dfrac34 cups of orange juice..

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Among 180 people 27 are managers, 100 are floor assistants and the rest are helpers. Under the rest we mean 180-27-100=53 people.

The event "randomly selected employee is not a floor assistant" is the same as "randomly selected employee is manager or helper". You can count that in total 27+53=80 people form the set of managers and helpers.

Then the probability that randomly selected employee is not a floor assistant is

Pr=\dfrac{80}{180}=\dfrac{4}{9}.

Answer: Pr=\dfrac{4}{9}.
