For his troops' popcorn fundraiser sale, Mike sold caramel corn for $10, buttered microwave popcorn for $8, and lightly buttered
Bad White [126]
\bf \begin{cases}&#10;c=\textit{caramel corn}\\&#10;b=\textit{buttered microwave popcorn}\\&#10;p=\textit{lightly buttered popcorn}&#10;\end{cases}

so... he sold 400 items, that means, whatever those quantities of c,b,p are, they add up to 400, thus

c+b+p = 400

now, the "c" sold for $10
the "b" sold for $8
and the "p" sold for $7

so, the amount of revenue on the "c" is 10 * c, or 10c
the revenue on "b" is 8*b or 8b
and the revenue on "p" is 7*p or 7p

whatever those amounts are, they ended up in $3,272
thus
10c + 8b + 7p = 3,272

now, he sold more lightly buttered, or "p", than just buttered corn or "b"
he actually sold twice as much, so whatever "b" is, "p" is twice that much
or 
p = 2b

thus      \bf \begin{cases}&#10;c+b+\boxed{p}=400\\\\&#10;\boxed{p}=2b\qquad thus\\\\&#10;c+b+\boxed{2b}=400\qquad or\\\\&#10;c+3b=400\implies c=\underline{400-3b}\\&#10;--------------\\&#10;10c+8b+7p=3272\qquad or\\\\&#10;10(\underline{400-3b})+8b+7(\boxed{2b})=3272&#10;\end{cases}

solve for "b", to see how many buttered microwave popcorn Mike sold

how many lightly buttered?  well, p = 2b
how many caramel ones?   well  c = 400 - 3b

Write the equation in slope-intercept form: 5x - 2y = 12
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving

5x + -2y = 12

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2y' to each side of the equation.

5x + -2y + 2y = 12 + 2y

Combine like terms: -2y + 2y = 0

5x + 0 = 12 + 2y

5x = 12 + 2y

Divide each side by '5'.

x = 2.4 + 0.4y

Simplifying

x = 2.4 + 0.4y

Which choice is equivalent to the expression below ? <br> 3^7.869
inna [77]
The second one:
3^7 x 3^(86/10) x 3^(9/1000)
That is because when you multiply powers with the same base ( in this case they are all 3), you just leave the base as it is and add the exponents
so it is basically 3^(7 + 86/100 + 9/1000) which is 3^7.869

Billy bought 2 sweatshirts and 3 t-shirts. His friend Jordan bout 3 sweatshirts and 3 t-shirts. Billy's bill was $35 and Jordan'
Olenka [21]
Alright, denote sweatshirts by x and tshirts by y:
for billy: 2x+3y=35$
for jordan:3x+3y=45$
We need to get rid of one of the unknowns inorder to solve, therefore we will subtract the two equations from each other. This will get rid of the y variable(3y-3y=0)
2x+3y=35$
-
3x+3y=45$
=
-1x=-10$
we get rid of the negative, which leaves us with x=10$. Knowing this info, we can now easily calculate y:
2x+3y=35$
2(10)+3y=35$
20+3y=35$
3y=15
y=15/3
y=5
Hope this helps!
