Answer:

The loose sweets at ?0.89 for 100 g.


Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the price per gram. You do this by dividing the price by the grams.

?1.49 / 120 g =  1.49 / 120 = 0.0124 (4 dp)

Because the answer was very long, I have rounded it to 4 decimal places (4 dp).

?0.89 / 100 g = 0.89 / 100 = 0.0089

Next, you must calculate both pre-packed and loose sweets to the same weight. I am calculating them both to 100 g.

0.0124 x 100 = 1.24

0.0089 x 100 = 0.89

Finally, the cheapest product for 100 g will be the better value. In this case, it is the loose sweets.

Not sure if this is very clear
Patty = 45.8%
Bun = 20.8%
Cheese = 8.3%
Sauce = 12.5%
Pickles = 4.2%
Veggies = 8.3%

EXPLANATION :

The equation to find a percentage is part(the broken down calories) over whole ( the total calories) is equal to % which we replace with x (since we’re trying to find the %) over 100 because all percents are out of 100. So for simple terms, p/w = %/100.
What I did was put 550/1200 = x/100, cross multiply, leaving you with 1200x=55000, then divide 55000/1200, giving you 45.8.

What is the solution set for the following system of equations 5x-3y-10=0 x+y-7=0
garik1379 [7]

(x, y) = ( \frac{31}{8}, \frac{25}{8})

given the 2 equations

5x - 3y - 10 = 0 → (1)

x + y - 7 = 0 → (2)

rearrange (2) to obtain y in terms of x

y = 7 - x → (3)

Substitute y = 7 - x into (1)

5x - 3(7 - x) - 10 = 0

5x - 21 + 3x - 10 = 0

8x - 31 = 0 ( add 31 to both sides )

8x = 31 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = \frac{31}{8}

Substitute this value into (3) for y

y = 7 - x = \frac{56}{8} - \frac{31}{8} = \frac{25}{8}
