Answer:
x = 5 , y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this using substitution.
Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y
2x + 1y = 25
x + y = 20
These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).
For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.
ACTUAL WORK
Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x
x = 25 - y / 2
Replace x with y in the second equation
(25 - y / 2) + y = 20
And solve for y
y = 15
Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is
x + 15 = 20
Solve for x
x = 5
Answer: The correct answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation: We are given the cost of restaurant meal of M. Clark is $25.50.
and she has given 20% of the meal's cost as a tip to the waiter.
Step 1: Calculating the amount of tip paid
Total tip paid = $5.1
Step 2: To find the total amount, we add the cost of the meal and the tip paid
Total amount = Cost of the meal + Tip paid
Total amount = $25.50 + $5.10
Total amount paid by Ms. Clark = $30.6
