(A) For x representing the cost of one of Tanya's items, her total purchase cost 5x. The cost of one of Tony's items is then (x-1.75) and the total of Tony's purchase is 6(x-1.75). The problem statement tells us these are equal values. Your equation is ...
... 5x = 6(x -1.75)
(B) Subtract 5x, simplify and add the opposite of the constant.
... 5x -5x = 6x -6·1.75 -5x
... 0 = x -10.50
... 10.50 = x
(C) 5x = 5·10.50 = 52.50
... 6(x -1.75) = 6·8.75 = 52.50 . . . . . the two purchases are the same value
(D) The individual cost of Tanya's iterms was $10.50. The individual cost of Tony's items was $8.75.
First find the slope. 4+1/3-2 = 5/1 or 5. Plug in your points to find b. 4=5(3)+b. 4=15+b. b=-11. SO the equation is y=5x-11.
Answer:
Walmart: 1.20 divided by 3= 0.4
Sprouts: 1.35 divided by 5= 0.27

Answer:
CD = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
AC = 5
BC = 7
∆ACB ≅ ∆DCE, therefore,
AC = CD,
BC = CE, and,
AB = DE
Thus,
AC = CD = 5
CD = 5
