Let j = cost of one jumbo popcorn, and c = cost of one chocolate chip cookie.
Then, based upon the given info, 1j + 2c = $5.
Also, 3j + 5c = $14.50
Let's solve this system of equations using addition/subtraction:
Mult. the first equation by -3, to obtain -3j - 6c = -$15
Now add this result to the 2nd equation:
-3j - 6c = -$15
3j + 5c = $14.50
----------------------
-c = -$0.50, or c = $0.50. Since 3j + 5c = $14.50, subst. $0.50 for c
lets us find j:
3j + 5($0.50) = $14.50, so 3j = $12.00. Thus, j = $4.00.
Jumbo popcorn is $4/bag, and choc. chip cookies $0.50 each.
Answer:
ok
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: the 10th term is 4.1
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum is +0.4 each time.
1=0.5
2=0.9
3=1.3
4=1.7
5=2.1
6=2.5
7=2.9
8=3.3
9=3.7
10=4.1
Just add the two numbers and divide them by two
__ 5 __, __
the first would be 2
after 5 is 8
after 8 is 11
Hope this helps!!!
