Write an equation system based on the problem
For an instance, e stands for the price of a carton of eggs, and b stands for the price of a loaf of bread
"Kate bought 3 cartons of eggs and 5 loaves of bread for $30.07" could be written as 3e + 5b = 30.07 (first equation)
"Melissa bought 2 cartons of eggs and 2 loaves of bread for $14.74" could be written as 2e + 2b = 14.74 (second equation)
Solve the equation system using elimination method
Eliminate b to find e. To eliminate b, we should equalize the coefficient of b.
3e + 5b = 30.07 (multiplied by 2)
2e + 2b = 14.74 (multiplied by 5)
-------------------------------------------
6e + 10b = 60.14
10e + 10b = 73.70
------------------------- - (substract)
-4e = -13.56
e = -13.56/-4
e = 3.39
The price for a carton of eggs is $3.39
Answer:
8=1.2x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
you are given the total ($8) and that he wants one loaf of bread $2×1, so 8=1.2(the cost) times the number of tomatoes plus $2
Answer:
Option C is the right answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Length of diagonal = 25 inches
Length of rectangle = 9 inches
Width of rectangle will be one of the two legs of right angled triangle and the diagonal will be the hypotenuse.
Using Pythagorean theorem;
Taking square root;
Therefore,
Option C is the right answer.
