Answer:
The first one is -1/2
the second one is x+2y-27=0
Answer:
$1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
This can best be determined using a set of linear equations that are solved simultaneously.
This pair of linear equations may be solved simultaneously by using the elimination method. This will involve ensuring that the coefficient of one of the unknown variables is the same in both equations.
Let the cost of a cookie be c, cost of a doughnut be d and that of a box of doughnut hole be h then if cost of 4 cookies, 6 doughnuts, and 3 boxes of doughnut holes is $8.15, we have
4a + 6d + 3h = 8.15
and the cost of 2 cookies, 3 doughnuts, and 4 boxes of doughnuts holes is $7.20 then
2a + 3d + 4h = 7.20
Dividing the first by 2
2a + 3d + 1.5h = 4.075
subtracting from the second equation
2.5h = 3.125
h = 1.25
The cost of a box of doughnut holes is $1.25
Answer: 21 eggs
Step-by-step explanation:
Charlie gathered 3 eggs from each of the three chickens so the total he gathered from chickns is:
= 3 * 3
= 9 eggs
From the 6 turkeys he got:
= 2 * 6
= 12 eggs
Eggs in total:
= 9 + 12
= 21 eggs
Assume the girls sold X boxes in the first week. They sold in the second week X+5 and 2X+10 in the third week.
The sum X + X + 5 + 2X + 10 = 431
4X = 416. Therefore X = 104
The answers are:
a0 = 104
a1 = 109
a2 = 218
Hope that helps you :)
