Haley is comparing the cost of a fresh lobster dinner at two different restaurants. The first restaurant charges $29 for the mea

l, plus $6 per kilogram for the lobster she picks. At the second restaurant, Haley would pay $3 per kilogram for the lobster, in addition to $41 for the meal. Haley realizes that, in theory, dinner at both restaurants could cost the same amount if the lobster had a certain weight. How much would Haley pay for her dinner? What is the weight?

First restaurant price: 29 + 6l = x

x = final cost

l = kilo of lobster

Second restaurant price: 41 + 3l = x

We want them to be the same price, so: 29 + 6l = 41 + 3l

Subtract 3l from each side

29 + 3l = 41

Subtract 29 from both sides

3l = 12

Divide both sides by 3

l = 4

So, if she buys 4 kilograms of lobster from either place, it will cost the same.

It would cost $53.

How do you graph an inequality on the number line if they are the same number? Using "and"
Korvikt [17]

If the sign looks like > or <, it excludes the number, if there is a line under the < or >, it is inclusive, which means at least, or at most. To display inclusive draw a circle on the point and fill it in, for exclusive, draw a circle and don't fill it in.

Find f(2) for the function below <br><br> f(x) = (1/8) times 5^x
Mrrafil [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =  \frac{1}{8}  \times  {5}^{x}  \\  \\  \therefore \: f(2) =  \frac{1}{8}  \times  {5}^{2}  \\  \\  \therefore \: f(2) =  \frac{1}{8}  \times 25 \\  \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore \: f(2) =  \frac{25}{8} }}
