Answer:
They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that they buy x hotdogs and y popcorn
∵ They buy a total of 11 hotdogs and popcorn
∵ The number of hotdogs is x and the number of popcorn is y
∴ x + y = 11 ⇒ (1)
∵ Hot dogs cost $2.50 each
∵ Popcorn costs $1.00 each
∵ They spend $20 on hot dogs and popcorn
→ Multiply x by 2.5 and y by 1, add the products and equate the sum by 20
∴ 2.5(x) + 1(y) = 20
∴ 2.5x + y = 20 ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
→ Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)
∵ (2.5x - x) + (y - y) = (20 - 11)
∴ 1.5x + 0 = 9
∴ 1.5x = 9
→ Divide both sides by 1.5 to find x
∴ x = 6
→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) to find y
∵ 6 + y = 11
→ Subtract 6 from both sides
∴ 6 - 6 + y = 11 - 6
∴ y = 5
∴ They buy 6 hotdogs and 5 popcorn
C is the answer for this question
Answer:
a.–12 – 18
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to compute the difference (the subtraction) between the new, colder temperature, which is equal to -12 °C, and the original temperature, which is equal to 18 °C, that is:
colder temperature - original temperature
Replacing with data:
-12 °C - 18 °C = -30 °C
It should be 12×18. 1:3 means you take where it's at, at 1 and multiply it's size by 3.
Let p and w represent the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind, respectively.
.. speed = distance/time
.. p +w = 720/3 = 240
.. p -w = 720/4 = 180
Add the two equations to eliminate w.
.. 2p = 420
.. p = 210
.. w = p -180 = 30
The speed of the wind is 30 mph.
The speed of the plane in still air is 210 mph.
