Answer:

£ 294

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Caroline get "c"

Sarah get "s"

ad

Gavyn get "g"

Now,

Caroline gets TWICE as Sarah, so we write:

c = 2s

Also,

Sarah gets THREE times as Gavyn, so we can write:

s = 3g

or

g = (1/3)s

Also, total is 980 between 3 person, so we can write:

c + s + g = 980

We replace this equation with first 2 (in bold) to get:

c + s + g = 980\\(2s) + s + (\frac{1}{3}s)=980\\3\frac{1}{3}s=980\\

Now, we solve for s:

3\frac{1}{3}s=980\\\frac{10}{3}s=980\\s=\frac{980}{\frac{10}{3}}\\s=980*\frac{3}{10}\\s=98*3\\s=294

Sarah gets £ 294

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

b. slope: -5; y-intercept: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

y + 5x = 7

To find the slope and y-intercept of the line, it would be helpful to get the equation into slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a line is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Lets get the given equation into slope-intercept form.

y + 5x = 7

Subtract 5x from both sides.

y = -5x + 7

Now we have the equation in slope-intercept form. By looking at the equation, we can see that the slope is -5 and that the y-intercept is 7.

The correct answer choice would be b.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.

Need Help With This​
gregori [183]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = 4 (you and 3 friends)

Ticket cost per head = $5.50

Drink cost per head = $2.50

Popcorn cost per head = $4.00

<em>Expression representing total amount of money spent = $5.50(x) + $2.50(x) + $4.00(x)</em>

<em />

Evaluate the expression by plugging in the value of x = 4

Total amount of money spent = $5.50(4) + $2.50(4) + $4.00(4)

= $22 + $10 + $16 = $48

<em>Total amount of money spent = $48</em>
