3 chicken sandwiches at $2.75 each: 3*2.75= 8.25
2 cokes at 1.19: 2*1.19= 2.38
Tax: 0.64
8.25+2.38+0.64= 11.27
He gives you 11.52, to find how much you need to give him back, subtract how much he gives you by the amount that is charged (11.27)
11.52-11.27= $0.25
The second constraint is the same as the objective function, so your problem boils down to finding integer solutions to
.. 3x1 +5x2 = 36
There are 3 solutions. They are (x1, x2) = (12, 0), (7, 3), (2, 6)
The value of the objective function there is (obviously) 36.
Answer:
|x-5|=2
Step-by-step explanation:
1- Find the mid value between the given numbers 3 and 7
(3+7)/2= 10/2 = 5
2- Find the difference btween the mid value (5) and any of the two given numbers (3 or 7). Use the absolute value for the difference.
|5-3|= 2 or |7-5|=2
3- Arrange the absolute equation like this:
|x-mid value from step 1|= absolute difference from step 2
|x-5|=2
4- Double check the answer with the given values 3 and 7 using our equation |x-5|=2
|3-5|=2 correct
|7-5|=2 correct
<u>ANSWER</u>
A. (4,12)
<u>EXPLANATION</u>
The equations are:

and

To eliminate a variable we make the coefficients of that variable the same in both equations.
It is easier to eliminate x.
We multiply the first equation by 2 to get:

We add equations (2) and (3).


Divide both sides by 23


Put x=4 into equation (1).






The solution is (4,12)
