At a particular restaurant, each onion ring has 40 calories and each mozzarella stick has 60 calories. A combination meal with o

nion rings and mozzarella sticks has a total of 14 onion rings and mozzarella sticks altogether and contains 800 calories. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of onion rings in the combination meal and the number of mozzarella sticks in the combination meal. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Writing a system of equations is really just writing an equation for each part of the problem.  The parts here being the calories, and number of items.  It's not asking to solve it, so I will not unless you do want me to.

First variables, let's keep it simple.  O will be onion rings and M will be mozzarella sticks.

Now, I mentioned the two parts are the calories and number of items so we'll take it one at a time.  First calories.  

The total calories will equal 800, so we know the answer to the equation.  Now, how would we relate the variables?  if you had two of each item what would the total calories be?  it may be easy to figure out,  but for our purposes we want to think of it as multiplying the calories of each by the number of each item, or in other words 40*O+60*M, where O and M equal 2.  So for the general case we use the same thing, but we know what we want So our first equation is 40*O + 60*M = 800

The second is a bit simpler.  It just wants to know the total amount of things ordered.  So we are just adding O and M together.  So this gets us O + M = 14, since there are 14 things together.  Let me know if there's still something you don't understand though.

Marcus baked a loaf of banana bread for a party. He cut the loaf into equal size pieces.how can you find the number of pieces in
Oliga [24]
If he cut the loaf into equal pieces, then told you 1/3 was left you could check the even multiples of three. Such as six. So he could have 2 pieces left of his loaf if he cut them into six pieces because 1/3 = 2/6

Compare the values 4x107 is what times as much as 4x103
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

10^{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

4 x 10^7 is 40000000

4 x 10^3 is 4000

We are told that 4x10^7 is something times as much as 4x10^3

So we will work backwards to find the answer,

If you divide 40000000 by 4000 you will get 10000

10000 is the same as 10^4

Can someone please help me with this question?

To get the solution we are looking for we need to point out what we know.
1. We assume that 55 is 100% because its the output value of the task.
2. We assume that the x is the value we are looking for. 
3. If 100% = 55 so we can write it down as 100%=55 
4. We know that x% = 44 of the output value so we can write it as x%=44.
5. Now we have two simple equations: 1) 100%=55 2) x%=44 where left sides of both of them have the same units and both right sides have the same units so we can do something like that 100%/x%=55/44.
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation and we will get the answer.
7. Solution for 44 is what percent of 55 100%/x%=55/44 (100/x)*x=(55/44)*x we multiply both sides of the equation by x 100= 1.25*x we divide both sides of the equation by (1.25) to get x 100/1.25=x 80=x now we have: 44 is 80% of 55! 

Quick answer = 44 is 80% of 55
Hope this helps! ;D
