4/5 is the right answer.....
If
1 gallon = $1.40
12.6 gallons = $1.40 × 12.6
Plug those into your calculator and you'll get $17.64!
2 days late, but the answer is no solution. solving a system of equations means finding where they intersect, but by looking at these equations, you know that they never intersect--they're parallel.
they share a slope (2), making them either parallel or "the same line", but the different x-intercepts (9 and -9) mean that they're different lines. they have no solution, or no intersection point, because they're parallel lines.
Answer:
The one with the better deal would be 30 ride tickets for $22.50 this is because you pay less money for more rides.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you divide 20 by 14. Doing this will give you the cost of a ride per ticket.
20/14 = 1.42
Then you do the same thing to 30 and 22.50.
30/22.50 = 1.30
Last you compare which deal has less money per ride.
1.42 > 1.30
3,400,000,000
3,000,000,000+400,000,000
