Answer:
<em>He bought 6 hotdogs and 2 drinks</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
Kevin and his children went into a restaurant and bought $31.50 worth of hotdogs and drinks. Each hotdog costs $4.50 and each drink costs $2.25.
To solve the system of equations, we'll call the variables:
x = number of hotdogs
y = number of drinks
The first condition yields the equation:
4.50x + 2.25y = 31.50 [1]
It's also known he bought 3 times as many hotdogs as drinks, thus:
x = 3y [2}
Substituting [2] in [1]:
4.50(3y) + 2.25y = 31.50
Operating:
13.5y + 2.25y = 31.50
15.75y = 31.50
y = 31.50/15.75
y = 2
And
x = 3*2 = 6

Answer:
hello,
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 18°
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles are any two angles whose sum is 90 degrees. Hence, if angles x and y are complimentary, we can say
x + y = 90°
Therefore, the complimentary angle of 72° is obtained by subtracting 72° from 90°
i.e 90° - 72° = 18°
Thus, the complimentary angle of 72° is 18°
Answer:
a. 9.5x + 6.5(x+c) < 8 when c>0
b. Must be one child more than the no. of adults.
Step-by-step explanation:
For Cinema 1:
for adult = $9.50
for child = $6.50
For Cinema 2:
Per person regardless of age = $8.00
First of all, we will find out the condition when per person rates in both cinema are equal.
Assume x = no. of adults
y = no. of children
Rate per person in Cinema I = Rate per person in Cinema II
(9.5x + 6.5y)/(x+y) = 8
9.5x + 6.5y = 8(x+y)
9.5x + 6.5y = 8x + 8y
9.5x-8x = 8y-6.5y
=> x = y
So rates are equal when no. of adults equals no. of children
For Cinema I to have better rates, no. of children should be atleast 1 more than the no. of adult. In this way the rate per person of Cinema I will be less than 8
Hence we form an inequality when y = x+c and c > 0
9.5x + 6.5(x+c) < 8 when c>0
Hence there must be 1 more children than the no. of adults attending Cinema I for it to be a better deal.
