Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55
We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55
We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
2y-20y=13.50-70.2
-18y=-56.7
y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
x+5*3.15=17.55
x+15.75=17.55
x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
Problem 4.
Let w = number of wood bats sold
Let m = number of metal bats sold
From sales information we have: w + m = 23
24w+30m=606
Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second.
24*(23-m)+30m=606
552-24m+30m=606
6m=54
m=9 = number of metal bats sold
Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.
Answer:
y=20x+14, where:
y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat
x is the number of hours the sailboat is used
Step-by-step explanation:
An equation in slope-intercept form is set up as y=mx+b. From the information provided, the equation would indicate that the cost of renting the boat would be equal to the price per hour for the number of hours plus the cost of lifejackets and the equation in slope-intercept form that can be used is:
y=20x+14, where:
y is the total amount you would pay for using the sailboat
x is the number of hours the sailboat is used
Answer:
okay i will pick one red one and i hope this helps lol
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: C) 16
We know that the x or y axis side is 2 and 6
If we double the number to find the perimeter:
2 - 4
6 - 12
—-
16
Therefore the answer is 16
A. cause i did it on the calculator so i know its right
