Answer:
Sitting fee - 32$
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a system of equations(let x represent the sitting fee)
x+6y=50
x+11y=65
You want to isolate the x variable - x+6y-6y=50-6y ; x = 50-6y
Input this into the 2nd equation: 50-6y+11y=65 ; 50+5y=65
Subtract 50 from both sides. 5y=15 (Divided 5y on both sides) ; y=3
Now that y = 3 input this into any equation I choose the 1st one.
x+6(3) = 50 ; x + 18 = 50 (Subtract 18 on both sides to get x)
x = 32
Prove: 32 + 6(3) = 50 ; 32+18 = 50 ; 50 = 50 True
I haven't done these problems in a really long time, so there's a chance that my answer might be wrong. I hypothesize that the correct answer is C.
Find the ratio of the known sides.
6/4 = 1.5
The larger triangle is 1.5 times larger than the smaller one.
Area is in square units, so to find the area of the larger triangle square the ratio and multiply that by the area of the known triangle.
1.5^2 x 40 = 90 square cm.
Each food bank would receive 264 cans.
44 Bins with 24 cans. 44•24= 1,056
n= (44•24) / 4
n= 1,056 / 4
n= 264 cans per food bank
