$13.75 = 3p + 4d
<span>$9.75 = 2p + 3d
</span>
Using 2nd equation, divide all factors by 3 to isolate hot dog price and solve in terms of pizza price:

3.25 = 2/3p + d
3.25 - 2/3p = d

Now substitute for d in the other equation:

$13.75 = 3p + 4(3.25 - 2/3p)

Distribute the 4: 

$13.75 = 3p + 13 - 8/3p

Combine factors of p:

$13.75 = 9/3p - 8/3p + 13
$13.75 = 1/3p + 13

Isolate and solve for p:

$13.75 -13 = 1/3p

0.75= 1/3p

0.75 * 3 = p
2.25 = p

The price of pizza was $2.25 per slice.

P and a are both prime numbers. Find the values of p and q so that 6*54*p/q is a perfect cube.
daser333 [38]

6x54= 324

6x50=300

6x4=24

300+24=324

The previous nearest cube root is 216 and the next cube root would be 343.

p/q could be any prime number which there are a lot of.

im going to say p is 1 and q is 3

next you would divide 1 by 3

1/3=0.666666667

324x0.666666667=216 exact

  What values for θ (0 ≤ θ ≤ 2pie ) satisfy the equation? 
svetoff [14.1K]
Factor out the cos<span>θ:
</span>cosθ (2sin<span>θ + sqrt3) = 0
</span>Therefore, the only ways this can happen are if either cosθ = 0 or if (2sin<span>θ + sqrt3) = 0
</span>The first case, cosθ = 0 only at θ <span>= pi/2, 3pi/2.
</span>The second case, <span>(2sin<span>θ + sqrt3) = 0 simplifies to:
</span></span>sin<span>θ = (-sqrt3)/2
</span><span><span>θ = 4pi/3, 5pi/3
</span></span><span><span>Therefore the answer is A.
