To determine the cost of each item, we need to set up equations. From the problem statement, we have three unknowns so we need three equations. We set up equations as follows:

let x cost of small pizzas
     y cost of soda
     z cost of salad
 
two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14
2x + y + z = 14

one small pizza, a liter of soda, and three salads cost $15

x + y + 3z = 15

three small pizzas, a liter of soda, and two salads cost $22
3x + y + 2z = 22

Solving for x, y and z, we will have:

x = $ 5
y = $ 1
z = $ 3

If x:y = 2:5, find the value of (-x+3y):(2x+y)
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

let x=2t and y=5t

-x+3y = -2t+15t = 13t

2x+y = 4t+5t = 9t

So the ratio is 13t : 9t

So, the ratio is 13 : 9

Graph 6x-2y=2 ,9x-3y=1
enot [183]

It's a linear function. We need only two points to draw a graph.

We choose any values of x and calculate the value of y.

6x-2y=2\qquad|-6x\\\\-2y=-6x+2\qquad|:(-2)\\\\y=3x-1

for x= 0 → y = 3(0) - 1 = 0 - 1 = -1 → (0, -1)

for x = 2 → y = 3(2) - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5 → (2, 5)

9x-3y=1\qquad|-9x\\\\-3y=-9x+1\qquad|:(-3)\\\\t=3x-\dfrac{1}{3}

for x = 0 → y = 3(0) - 1/3 = 0 - 1/3 = -1/3 → (0, -1/3)

for x = 2 → y = 3(2) - 1/3 = 6 - 1/3 = 5 2/3 → (2, 5 2/3)

Steven is taking out a loan in the amount of $5,000. His choices are a 3-year loan at 5% simple interest and a 5 -year loan at 4
Andre45 [30]
I do believe it’s 250$

**The first choice:**
Principal: 5,000$
Rate(%): 5
Time(year): 3 years
A: 5,750$

**Second choice**
Principal: 5,000$
Rate(%): 4%
Time(year): 5 years
A: 6,000$

6,000-5,750=250$

Hope this helps!
