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

Substitution Method <br> y=x-4<br> y=4x-10
ira [324]

Answer:

x=2 and y= -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute y=x-4 in second equation

x-4=4x-10

get x terms on one side and numbers on other sides

4x-x=10-4

3x=6

divide 3 on both sides

x=2

substitute x=2 in y=x-4

y=2-4

y= -2

division equation where 13 is quotient with the dividend a whole number and a unit fraction is the divisor
lys-0071 [83]

The division equation that has a quotient of 13 is 1/1/13 = 13

<h3>How to determine the equation?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Quotient = 13
  • Dividend = Whole number
  • Divisor = Unit fraction i.e. 1/n where n is an integer.

A division equation is represented as:

Dividend/Divisor = Quotient

Substitute 13 for the Quotient

Dividend/Divisor = 13

Recall that:

Unit fraction = 1/n

So, we have:

Dividend/1/n = 13

Let n = 13.

So, we have:

Dividend/1/13 = 13

This gives

13 * Dividend = 13

Divide both sides by 13

Dividend = 1

So, we have:

1/1/13 = 13

Hence, the division equation is 1/1/13 = 13
