Answer:

The price of a drink is $9.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the price of one bag of popcorn

y ----> the price of  one drink

we know that

Piper spends a total of $55.50 on 6 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks

so

6x+2y=55.50 ----> equation A

Skylar spends a total of $86.00 on 8 bags of popcorn and 4 drinks

so

8x+4y=86.00 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both lines

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (6.25,9)

see the attached figure

therefore

The price of a drink is $9.00

Answer:

10: -11n^5

12: 6k^2 -6k+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so what your gonna do is add or subtract the ones with the same exponent.

so -15+4= -11 since they are both n^5 you can add them so your answer is:

-11n^2

now you have 8k^2-k-5k+7-2k. so you are gonna rearrange them so the same exponents are together.(keep the sign in front in front, if no sign it is positive)

8k^2-2k^2-5k-k+7

add like exponents

6k^2-6k+7

True [87]

Step-by-step explanation:

Quesion 1

The cost of one chair can be found by dividing the cost of the total chairs by the number of chairs

hence, cost per chair= 150/50= $3 per chair

Question 2

let us find the number of walnuts per bag

= 330/6

=55 walnuts per bag

hence in two bags there will be 55*2= 110 walnuts

Question 3

Option D is an example of a unit rate.

The unit rate is defined as the cost of one unit of an item, or the value that represents a unit of a quantity... D 18 miles driven in a week
