Answer:
X=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: the cost of one package of macadamia nut chip cookie dough is $1.5
the cost of one package of triple chocolate cookie dough is $2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of one package of macadamia nut chip cookie dough.
Let y represent the cost of one package of triple chocolate cookie dough.
Mrs. Julien’s class sold 25 packages of macadamia nut chip cookie dough and 30 packages of triple chocolate cookie dough for a total of $112.50. This means that
25x + 30y = 112.5 - - - - - - - - - - - - -1
Mrs. Castillejo’s class sold 8 packages of macadamia nut chip cookie dough and 45 packages of triple chocolate cookie dough for a total of $124.50. This means that
8x + 45y = 124.5 - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 8 and equation 2 by 25, it becomes
200x + 240y = 900
200x + 1125 = 3112.5
Subtracting, it becomes
- 885y = - 2212.5
y = - 2212.5/- 885
y = 2.5
Substituting y = 2.5 into equation 1, it becomes
25x + 30 × 2.5 = 112.5
25x + 75 = 112.5
25x = 112.5 - 75 = 37.5
x = 37.5/25 = 1.5
The method used is the elimination method. It is more convenient to use.
$26.79
If you took 30% of 26.79 you get 8.037
Subtract: 26.79-8.037 = 18.753
Answer:
x=3 and y= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Solve2x+y=5 for y:
2x+y=5
2x+y+−2x=5+−2x(Add -2x to both sides)
y=−2x+5
Step 2: Substitute−2x+5foryin5x+3y=12:
5x+3y=12
5x+3(−2x+5)=12
−x+15=12(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−x+15+−15=12+−15(Add -15 to both sides)
(Divide both sides by -1)
x=3
Step 3: Substitute3forxiny=−2x+5:
y=−2x+5
y=(−2)(3)+5
y=−1(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Answer:
x=3 and y=−1
Answer: 200 ml
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Yuri: 0.7 l = 700 ml
Pete: 500 ml
Yuri - Pete
= 700 ml - 500 ml
= 200 ml
