Let the cost of one cup of hot chocolate be = x
Let the cost of one cup of hot tea be = y
Paul paid $ 25.50 for 3 cups of hot chocolate and 4 cups of tea.
Equation becomes =
...(1)
As given, the cost of each cup of tea was 2/3 the cost of each cup of hot chocolate.
.... (2)
Putting the value of y from (2) in (1)

=
=
=
x=4.5

=
y =3
Hence each cup of hot chocolate is $4.50
Each cup of tea is $3.
Answer:
The correct answer is 375 purple flowers.
Step-by-step explanation:
If all the F1 generation from true-breeding parents are purple than the genotype would be heterozygous i.e., Pp and Pp. Here P indicates the dominant allele which produces purple flower and p indicates the recessive allele of white flower.
So if we will cross the F 1 generation than the genotype would be PP, Pp, Pp, pp. That means 3 out of 4 offspring would be purple because three genotypes out of four have dominant purple allele(P).
So if out of 4 flower 3 is purple than according to calculation out of 500 flower 375 offspring would be purple(3/4*500= 375). Therefore the correct answer is 375 purple flowers should be produced.
To complete the square:
we take the coefficient ox "x" (which in this problem is -20)
we divide it by 2
square that number
then add it to both sides of the equation
-20 / 2 = -10
-10^2 = 100
then we add 100 to both sides of the equation:
x^2 -20x
x^2 -20x +100 = 100
******************************************************
To get the roots of the equation, we take the square root of both sides:
(x -10) * (x-10) = 10
(x-10) = square root (10)
x-10 =
