Multiplying the first equation by -1 and adding it to the third, we get 2y-8z=15 and by multiplying the first equation by -1 and adding it to the second equation, we get -3y-4z=3

Using the two equations, we have
2y-8z=15
-3y-4z=3

Multiplying the second equation by -2 and adding it to the third, we have 8y=9 and y = 9/8 by dividing both sides by 8. Plugging it back into
-3y-4z=3, we have -27/8-4z=3 and by adding 27/8 to both sides, we have -4z=51/8 and by dividing both sides by -4 we get z=-51/32.

Plugging it into 2x − y + z =2, we get 2x-9/8+5(-51/32)=2, we get x=151/64 by adding -(5(-51/32)) to both sides as well as adding 9/8 to both.

Isabella went into a movie theater and bought 3 drinks and 10 pretzels, costing a total of $54.50. Jason went into the same movi

ruslelena [56]

The price of 1 drink is $ 4 and price of 1 pretzel is $ 4.25

Solution:

Let d" be the price of 1 drink

Let "p" be the price of 1 pretzel

Given that, Isabella went into a movie theater and bought 3 drinks and 10 pretzels, costing a total of $54.50

Therefore, we can frame a equation as,

3 x price of 1 drink + 10 x price of 1 pretzel = 54.50

$3 \times d + 10 \times p = 54.50$

3d + 10p = 54.5 ---------- eqn 1

Jason went into the same movie theater and bought 9 drinks and 5 pretzels, costing a total of $57.25

9 x price of 1 drink + 5 x price of 1 pretzel = 57.25

$9 \times d + 5 \times p = 57.25$

9d + 5p = 57.25 ---------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Multiply eqn 1 by 3

9d + 30p = 163.5 ----- eqn 3

Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 3

9d + 30p = 163.5

9d + 5p = 57.25

( - ) -----------------------

25p = 106.25

p = 4.25

Substitute p = 4.25 in eqn 1

3d + 10(4.25) = 54.5

3d + 42.5 = 54.5

3d = 54.5 - 42.5

3d = 12

d = 4

Thus price of 1 drink is $ 4 and price of 1 pretzel is $ 4.25

Plz answer this correctly to get more points

crimeas [40]

Answer: x = 30°

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of an isosceles triangle and the vertical angle theorem.

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has any two of its sides equal to each other. Also, the angles opposite these equal sides are equal, which is basically the base angles.

The vertical angle theorem states that two vertical angles formed when two lines intersect each other are always equal to each other.

Solve:

Find the other base angle of the isosceles triangle.

Since there are two equal sides, we know that this is an isosceles triangle.

Since the definition said that the base angles are equal, the other base angle would also be x.

Find the value of x

According to the vertical angle theorem, two vertical angles formed by intersection are equal.

Just as angle x and 30°, are vertical angles formed by intersection, therefore, $\boxed{x=30}$

Hope this helps!! :)

To round it with those numbers just round it to the nearest 1000, 10,000 and 100,000 and to know to round up or down is that if its 5 or up you round up and for down its 4 or less
