Let's start out by setting up three separate equations for each customer.
d = cost of drink, f = cost of fries, h = cost of hamburger

Miller Family: 4h + 3f = 13.27
James: d + h + 2f = 6.33
Steven: 2h + f + d = 7.04

Since the Miller's didn't order any drinks, let's start by using substitution to find the cost of d between James and Steven.

Let's isolate d with James:
d + h + 2f = 6.33
d = 6.33 - h - 2f

Now let's plug that into Steven's equation:
2h + f + d = 7.04
2h + f + (6.33 - h - 2f) = 7.04
h - f + 6.33 = 7.04
h - f = 0.71
h = 0.71 + f

Let's plug that new h into the Miller Family's equation:
4h + 3f = 13.27
4(0.71 + f) + 3f = 13.27
2.84 + 4f + 3f = 13.27
2.84 + 7f = 13.27
7f = 10.43
f = 1.49

So medium fries cost $1.49

Let's plug f back into the Miller Family's equation to get h:
4h + 3f = 13.27
4h + 3(1.49) = 13.27
4h + 4.47 = 13.27 
4h = 8.8
h = 2.2

So a hamburger costs $2.20

Let's plug h and f into Steven's equation to calculate d

2h + f + d = 7.04
2(2.2) + (1.49) + d = 7.04
4.4 + 1.49 + d = 7.04
5.89 + d = 7.04
d = 1.15

So a medium drink costs $1.15

The answer is B. Drink = $1.15, Fries = $1.49, Hamburger = $2.20

Answer:

The rental company also provides 4 different sizes of moving boxes for purchase.The volume of each box doubles in size from the volume of the next smallest box

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear functions those relation which produces a straight line graph while non - linear functios produces curves or other shapes asides a straight line. Non linear functios could be quadratic, Exponential or so on in nature.

Equation of a linear equation include :

y = a + bx OR

y = bx

First expression :

y = $50 + x ;

slope, b = 1 ; intercept, a = 50

Third expression :

y(x) = 105x

Second expression:

V(x) = V0 * e^2x

Second expression is exponential while the first and third is linear.

Juana is 4 feet 8 inches tall. She won 1st place in a cross country race. To receive her medal she stood on a platform that was
ioda

Answer:

The distance from the top of her head to the floor is 6 feet 2 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

In his case Juana's height is given to us with two kinds of units, feet and inches, in order to make our solution easyer we will transform her height to only inches. In 1 feet we have 12 inches, so we need to take the part of her height that is given in feet and multiply it by 12. We have:

height = 4*12 + 8 = 56 inches

Since she is in a platform that is 18 inches tall the distance from the top of her head to the floor is her height plus the height of the platform. We have:

distance = height + platform = 56 + 18 = 74 inches

We can now transform back to a mixed unit, we do that by dividing the distance by 12 that will be the "feet" part and the res of the division will be the "inches" part. We have:

distance = 74/12 = 6 feet 2 inches

The distance from the top of her head to the floor is 6 feet 2 inches.
