Answer:

Cost\ of\ donut=\frac{49}{24}\approx \$2.042\\\\cost\ of\ donuts=\frac{49}{4}\approx \$12.25

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Let\ cost\ of\ coffee=y\\\\cost\ of\ one\ donut=x\\\\Each\ friend\ buy\ one\ coffee\ and\ two\ donuts\\\\Amount\ for\ 1\ friend=Cost\ of\ coffee+2\times cost\ of\ donut\\\\Amount\ for\ 1\ friend=y+2x\\\\Amount\ required\ for\ 3\ friend=3\times Amount\ for\ 1\ friend\\\\Amount\ required\ for\ 3\ friend=3\times (y+2x)\\\\Amount\ required\ for\ 3\ friend=3y+6x\\\\Total\ bill=\$ 22\\\\3y+2x=22\\\\Given\ cost\ of\ coffee=\$3.25\\\\y=\$3.25

Hence\ solution\ of\ following\ system\ of\ equation\ will\ give\ cost\ of\ donut:\\\\3y+6x=22\\\\y=3.25\\\\\\Substitute\ y=3.25\ in\ first\ equation\\\\3\times 3.25+6x=22\\\\9.75+6x=22\\\\6x=22-9.75\\\\6x=12.25\\\\x=\frac{12.25}{6}\\\\x=\frac{49}{24}\approx \$2.042\\\\Cost\ of\ donut=\frac{49}{24}\approx \$2.042

See attached diagram.

b.

Each\ friend\ takes\ 2\ donuts\\\\Total\ donuts=Number\ of\ friends\times 2\\\\Total\ donuts=3\times 2=6\\\\cost\ of\ donuts=number\ of\ donuts\times cost\ of\ 1\ donut\\\\cost\ of\ donuts=6\times \frac{49}{24}\\\\cost\ of\ donuts=\frac{49}{4}\approx \$12.25

Identify the factor terms by grouping: 5x3 – 4x2 + 20x – 16
Elanso [62]
 5x3-4x2-20x+16=0 Three solutions were found : x = 4/5 = 0.800 x = 2 x = -2Reformatting the input :Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
 (1): "x2"   was replaced by   "x^2".  1 more similar replacement(s).
Step by step solution :Step  1  :Equation at the end of step  1  :  (((5 • (x3)) -  22x2) -  20x) +  16  = 0  Step  2  :Equation at the end of step  2  :  ((5x3 -  22x2) -  20x) +  16  = 0 Step  3  :Checking for a perfect cube : 3.1    5x3-4x2-20x+16  is not a perfect cube 
Trying to factor by pulling out : 3.2      Factoring:  5x3-4x2-20x+16 
Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :
Group 1:  5x3+16 Group 2:  -4x2-20x 
Pull out from each group separately :
Group 1:   (5x3+16) • (1)Group 2:   (x+5) • (-4x)

What is bigger 1/5 or .29
n200080 [17]
.29 is bigger.

If you convert 1/5 to a decimal (or simply solve it!) you will end up with .2 or .20
Which is obviously smaller than .29
