The given equations are

12x + 4y = 152 ...........1

32x + 12y = 420 .....2

Multiplying equation 1 by 3 to make  coefficient of y same we have:

36x+12y= 456

32x+12y=420

Subtracting the two equations we have:

4x=36.

Dividing by 4 both sides

x= 9.

Substituting x value in equation 1

12(9) + 4y = 152

108+4y=152

Subtracting 108 both sides: 4y=44.

Dividing both sides by 4.

y=11.

cost of the vegetarian lunch is $11.


In the equations, x represents the cost of a chicken lunch and y represents the cost of a vegetarian lunch.

Which is an equation in point-slope form for the given point and slope point (8 -4) slope 5/6
Alina [70]

If you want to say thank you, click the "Thanks" button and select the answer "The Brainliest!" We appreciate it!

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form: (y−y1) = m (x−x1), where (x1,y1) is the point, and m is the slope.

(y- (-4)) = (5/6)*(x - 8)

(y + 4) = (5/6)*(x - 8)

If you want in standard form

(y + 4) = (5/6)*x - (5/6)*8

y = (5/6) x - (5/6)*8 - 4

y = (5/6)x - (16/6)


Answer:

(y + 4) = (5/6)*(x - 8)

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The \ area \ of \ the \ figure = 4\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot \pi + 18 \ cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the figure is made up of portion of a square and a semicircle, we have;

BC ≅ AB = 6 cm

The area of semicircle BC with radius BC/2 = 3 is 1/2×π×r² = 1/2×π×3² = 4.5·π cm²

Triangle ABC = 1/2 × Area of square  from which ABC is cut

The area of triangle ABC = 1/2×Base ×Height = 1/2×AB×BC = 1/2×6×6 = 18 cm²

The area of the figure = The area of semicircle BC + The area of triangle ABC

The area of the figure = 4.5·π cm² + 18 cm² = \dfrac{9 \cdot \pi +36}{2} \ cm^2.

Please help me im horrable at math
Masja [62]

1.) First plug in the values for m and A:

2555 = 139(4) + b

--> 2555 = 556 + b

Isolate b: 2555 - 556 = 556 - 556 + b

b = 1999

So your answer is the first option.

2.) Admission costs $5.25, so even if you don't go on any rides, you will still have to pay $5.25. This means that for this problem, 5.25 will be the b value. If each ride costs $2.50, then this means it is $2.50x for the cost of x rides. The total cost will then be C = 5.25 + 2.50x.
