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:

<h2>f(19) =  -  \frac{27}{7}  \\</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =  \frac{3}{x + 2}  -  \sqrt{x - 3}  \\

To find f(19) , substitute the value of x that's 19 into f(x). That is for every x in f (x) replace it with 19

We have

f(19) =  \frac{3}{19 + 2}  -  \sqrt{19  - 3}  \\  =  \frac{3}{21}  -  \sqrt{16}  \\  =   \frac{1}{7}  - 4 =  \frac{1 - 28}{7}

We have the final answer as

f(19) =  -  \frac{27}{7}  \\

Hope this helps you

If-2a &gt; 6, then<br> -a&gt;3<br> -a&lt;3<br> -a&lt;-3<br> -a&gt;-3
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

a < - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2a > 6

Divide both sides by - 2, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity, thus

a < - 3

Simplify each.Assume that none of the variables is zero.​
Zanzabum

Answer:

2. 1 / a^2

3, 1

4. - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulas : -

x^y / x^z = x^( y - z )

x^-y = 1 / x^y

x^y / x^y = 1

2.

a^2 / a^4

= a^( 2 - 4 )

= a^-2

= 1 / a^2

3.

m^6 / m^6 = 1

4.

- 8^4 / 8^4

= - 1 x 8^4 / 7^4

= - 1

Which expression shows how 6 • 45 can be rewritten using the distributive property?
tatuchka [14]
6*45=270 is the first step you should do to get the answer you are looking for. The next thing I would do is go to all the answers to see which one comes out the same way. The first one comes to be 246, the next one is 54, the next is 270 and the last one is 220. 6*40+6*5 is the correct answer.
