Answer:

$2.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

The cost of Ten granola bars and twelve bottles of water is $23.

The cost of Five granola bars and four bottles of water is $10.

To Find : The cost of one granola bar and one bottle of water

Solution :

Let x be the cost of one granola bar.

Let y be the cost of one water bottle.

So, cost of 10 granola bars = $10 x

Cost of 5 granola bars = $5 x

Cost of twelve bottles of water = $12 y

Cost of four bottles of water = $4 y

Now we know that the cost of Ten granola bars and twelve bottles of water is $23.

So, the equation becomes:

⇒10x+12y=23  ---(a)

We also know that cost of Five granola bars and four bottles of water is $10.

So, the equation becomes:

⇒5x+4y=10  ---(b)

Now we need to solve (a) and (b) to find value of x and y

So, we will use substitution method

We will substitute value of x from (a) in (b)

⇒5(\frac{23-12y}{10} )+4y=10


⇒\frac{23-12y}{2} +4y=10


⇒11.5-6y+4y=10


⇒11.5-2y=10


⇒11.5-10=2y


⇒1.5=2y


⇒\frac{1.5}{2} =y


⇒0.75 = y


So, cost of one water bottle 'y' is $0.75

Now we are supposed to find the value of x . So, put value of y in equation (a)

⇒10x+12(0.75)=23


⇒10x+9=23


⇒10x=23-9


⇒10x= 14


⇒x= \frac{14}{10}


⇒x= 1.4

So, cost of one granola bar 'x' is $1.4

So, combine cost of 1 granola bar and one water bottle is $1.4+ $0.75 = $2.15

What is the sum of the terms of the series (−1) + (−2) + (−3) + . . . + (−10)?
Murrr4er [49]
You can solve this problem by using the Gauss method. The Gauss method is a method where you can add the first and last numbers together, and then multiply by how many times that appears. Here, the sum of the first and last number is -11. In this sequence, it would appear ten times (since there are ten terms and the terms are used twice in every eleven). -11 * 5 is -55, so that means the answer to this question is -55.

Answer:

1. >; 2. >  

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

     ⅜ (?) 0.295    Convert ⅜ to a decimal fraction

0.375 (?) 0.295

We can use a <em>number line</em> to decide which number is greater.

In Fig. 1 below, when we go from 0.295 to 0.375, we are moving to the <em>RIGHT</em>,  so 0.375 is greater than 0.295.

0.375 >  0.295

2.

-0.770 (?) -4/5    Convert ⅘ to a decimal fraction

-0.770 (?) -0.800

In Fig. 2 below, when we go from -0.80 to -0.77, we are moving to the <em>RIGHT</em>,  so -0.770 is greater than -0.800.

-0.770 > -0.800
