Let x = cost of one cheese pizza.

Let y = cost of one pepperoni pizza.

Set up a system of equations.

6x + 7y = 153.50

2x + 2y = 47.00.

Multiply the second equation by -3

6x + 7y = 153.50

-6x - 6y = -141.00.

Add the equations together

y = $12.00.

Plug 12 into one of our original equations.

2x + 2(12) = 47.

Simplify the left side.

2x + 24 = 47.

Subtract 24 from each side.

2x = 23.

Divide each side by 2

x = $11.50

In conclusion, one pepperoni pizza costs $12.00

The linear equation y = mx + b contains the point (4, -2) and is perpendicular to the
xenn [34]

A linear equation is represented as: y = mx + b.

The equation of the line is: y =3x - 14

First, we calculate the slope (m) of 6x + 18y = 11

Make y the subject

18y = -6x + 11

Divide by 18

y = -\frac{1}{3}x + \frac{11}{18}

In y = mx + b

m \to slope

So, the slope of y = -\frac{1}{3}x + \frac{11}{18} is:

m = -\frac 13

Since, the line is perpendicular to 6x + 18y = 11

The slope of the line is:

m_1 = -\frac{1}{m}

So, we have:

m_1 = -\frac{1}{-1/3}

m_1 = 3

The line passes through (4,-2).

So, the equation is:

y =m(x - x_1) + y_1

This gives:

y =3(x - 4) -2

y =3x - 12 -2

y =3x - 14

Hence, the linear equation is:

y =3x - 14

Is 5:2 the same as 2:5
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

It is not the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Is 5/2 greater than 2/5? Is 5/2 bigger than 2/5? Is 5/2 larger than 2/5? These are all the same questions with one answer.

When comparing fractions such as 5/2 and 2/5, you could also convert the fractions (if necessary) so they have the same denominator and then compare which numerator is larger.        

  To get the answer, we first convert each fraction into decimal numbers. We do this by dividing the numerator by the denominator for each fraction as illustrated below: 5/2 = 2.5

2/5 = 0.4 Therefore, 5/2 is greater than 2/5 and the answer to the question "Is 5/2 greater than 2/5?" is yes.
