Answer:

$6.50 per bag of popcorn

Step-by-step explanation:

let a bag of popcorn be represented by p and a candy bar be b

28p + 40b = $282

17p + 20b = $160.50

this is an example of simultaneous equations

so you have to double the second equation to give 34p + 40b = $321

subtract the equations to give one -- >  6p = $39

divide $39 by 6 to give the value of one bag of popcorn = $6.50

Answer:

BD = 12.1 (nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

∆ABC is an isosceles triangle, since it has two equal sides, AB and BC. Also, this means that <BAD and <BCD = 60° each.

BD divides ∆ABC into two equal parts.

Apply trigonometric ratio to find BD.

Reference angle = <BAD = 60°

Adjacent = AD = 7

Opposite = BD

Thus, we would have:

tan 60 = opp/adj

Tan 60 = BD/7

7*Tan 60 = BD

12.1 = BD

BD = 12.1 (nearest tenth)
