One way to look at this is to make 2 equations and treat it as a set of equations. We will make the cost of a donut equal to x, and the cost of a coffee equal to y.
Harold's order:
4x + 2y = 4.08
Melinda's order:
2x + 3y = 3.92
To combine these equations, we need to cancel out either x or y:
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>2x + 3y = 3.92
</span>
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>4x + 6y = 7.84
</span>
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>-4x - 6y = -7.84
</span>
We can now combine these equations:
4x + 2y = 4.08
<span>-4x - 6y = -7.84
</span>
-4y = -3.76
y = 0.94
Therefore the cost of a large coffee is $0.94. We can plug this into either original equation to find the cost of a donut.
<span>4x + 2y = 4.08
</span>4x + 2(0.94) = 4.08
4x + 1.88 = 4.08
4x = 2.20
x = 0.55
The cost of a donut is $0.55, and the cost of a large coffee is $0.94.
Answer:
49/4
Step-by-step explanation:
x² -7x +(7/2)²=(x-7/2)²
x²-2x·7/2+ (7/2)²=(x²-7/2)²
(7/2)²=49/4

Answer:
14 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the time it took Suki to pick out her pumpkin. The given relation is ...
10t -13 = 127 . . . . . equation for minutes to carve
10t = 140 . . . . . . . . add 13
t = 14 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10
It took Suki 14 minutes to pick out her pumpkin.
