Answer:

6x + y = 38.75

x + 2y = 17

price of drink is $5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price  of popcorn be x

Let the price  of drink be y.

price  of  12 bags of popcorn will be 12x

price  of  2 drinks  will be 2y

it is given that "Kennedy spends a total of $77.50 on 12 bags of popcorn and 2 drinks."

thus

12x + 2y = 77.50

dividing LHS and RHS by 2 we have

12x/2 + 2y/2 = 77.50/2

=> 6x + y = 38.75 _________(1)

__________________________________________________

price  of  3 bags of popcorn will be 3x

price  of  6 drinks  will be 6y

it is given that "Olivia spends a total of $51.00 on 3 bags of popcorn and 6 drinks."

thus

3x + 6y = 51.00

dividing LHS and RHS by 3 we have

3x/3 + 6y/3 = 51/3

=> x + 2y = 17   _____________(2)

__________________________________________________

Thus we have two equation

6x + y = 38.75 _________(1)

x + 2y = 17

=> x = 17 - 2y

putting this value of x in equation 1 we have

6( 17 - 2y) + y = 38.75

=> 102 - 12y + y = 38.75

=> 102 - 11y = 38.75

=> -11y = 38.75 -102

=> -11y = -63.25

=> y = -63.25/-11 = 5.75

as we have x = 17 - 2y

using 5.75 in place of y

x = 17 - 2(5.75 )

=> x = 17 - 11.5

=> x = 5.5

Thus, system of equations are

6x + y = 38.75

x + 2y = 17

price of drink is $5.75

Answer: 2.127

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we have to divide the number 212.7 by 100 cookies.

212.7 ÷ 100 = 2.127

So, each cookie will require 2.127 ounces of dough.

(a) How many integers in the range 1 through 120 are integer multiples of 2, 3, or 5? keyboard_arrow_down Solution (b) How many
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

(a) 88 integers

(b) 92 integers

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) integers whose last digits are divisible by 2 are multiples of two or numbers whose digits ends with zero. So for number 1-120 , all the even numbers which are sixty in number are are multiples of two.

For  3, numbers whose digits sum is divisible by three are multiples of three. 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30 are multiples of three from numbers 1-30. we have four 30s in 120. which means numbers of integers will be 10*4 = 40integers. However out of these numbers , half are also integers of 2 which reduces the number added to 20integers.

For 5, numbers whose digits ends with 5 or 0 are multiples of 5. this gives us 24 integers for 1-120. but out of these 24integers, 16 are common integers of 2 and 3 which reduces the number added to 8integers.

Thus from 1-120 the intergers of 2,3 or 5 = 60+20+8 = 88integers.

(b) if we are considering from numbers 1-140;

for 2 we wil have 70 integers,

for 5 we will have 28 integers, but those integers that end with 0 are also integers of 2 which reduces the number added to 14.

For 7, numbers 7,14,21,28,35,42,49,56,63,70 are multiples of three from 1-70. This pattern is repeated from number 71-140. hence we have 20 integers in all. However 12 of the multiples are also multiples of either 2 or 5 which reduces the number to 8 integers.

Thus from 1-140, the integers of 2, 5, or 7 = 70+14+8 = 92integers
