on our way to visit her parents Jennifer Drive 265 miles in 5 hours what is the average rate of speed in miles per hou

1 answer:

6 0

The average speed would be 53 miles per hour, hope this helped, if you need me to explain then here is the way, so all you do is divide 265 by 5 and what I did to help make it faster was split 265 into 250 and 15 so 250 divided by 5 is 50 and 15 divided by 5 is 3 so 50 + 3 = 53!

Raymond normally has a snack consisting of ten 12-calorie crackers. How many 20-calorie cookies would he have to eat to consume

ss7ja [257]

<h3>Answer: 6</h3>

Work Shown:

He eats ten 12-calorie crackers, so that is 10*12 = 120 calories total

If x is the number of 20-calorie cookies, then the total number of calories here is 20x. We want this to be 120, so,

20x = 120

x = 120/20 .... divide both sides by 20

x = 6

He must eat six 20-calorie cookies to get 120 calories total

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a) What is the cost of a chicken shawarma wrap?

$10.99

b) What is the cost of one order of spiced potatoes?

$4.99

c) If x denotes the cost of a chicken shawarma wrap and y denotes the cost of an order of spiced potatoes, what are the equations needed to solve this problem?

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the cost of a chicken shawarma wrap and y denotes the cost of an order of spiced potatoes,

Cost of a chicken sharwarma wrap = x

Cost of an order of spiced potatoes = y

Ms. Ironperson ordered 3 chicken shawarma wraps and 2 orders of spiced potatoes for a total bill of $42.95.

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

Mr. Thoro ordered 5 chicken shawarma wraps and 4 orders of spiced potatoes for a total bill of $74.91.

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2

Hence, the Equations needed to solve the question is:

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2

We use Elimination method to solve for this.

Multiply Equation 1 by coefficient of x in Equation 2

Equation 2 by coefficient of x in Equation 1

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1 × 5

5x + 4y = $74.91 ................Equation 2 × 3

15x + 10y = 214.75..............Equation 3

15x + 12y = 224.73..............Equation 4

Subtract Equation 3 from Equation 4

2y = 9.98

y = 9.98/2

y = 4.99

Therefore, y = Cost of an order of spiced potatoes = $4.99

Subtitute 4.99 for y in Equation 1

3x + 2y = $42.95 .............Equation 1

3x +2(4.99) = 42.95

3x + 9.98 = 42.95

3x = 42.95 - 9.98

3x = 32.97

x = 32.97/3

x = 10.99

x = Cost of a chicken sharwarma wrap = $10.99

Therefore,

The cost of a chicken sharwarma wrap = $10.99

The cost of an order of spiced potatoes = $4.99
