X=price of a hot dogy=price of a soft drinkWe can suggest the following system of equations:
6x+4y=133x+4y=8.50
We solve this system of equations by reduction method.  6x+4y=13-(3x+4y=8.5)------------------------   3x=4.5              ⇒x=4.5/3=1.5
Answer: the price of a hot dog will be $1.5.

If you want to know the price of a soft drink, you have to find "y".6x+4y=13
6(1.5)+4y=139+4y=134y=13-94y=4y=4/4y=1
The price of a soft drink is $1. 
Hope this helps! :)

* The nth term of sequence A is 3n − 2 The nth term of sequence B is 10 − 2n Sally says there is only one number that is in both
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Sally is not right

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two sequences which have their respective n^{th} terms as following:

Sequence A. 3n - 2

Sequence B. 10 - 2n

As per Sally, there exists only one number which is in both the sequences.

To find:

Whether Sally is correct or not.

Solution:

For Sally to be correct, we need to put the n^{th} terms of the respective sequences as equal and let us verify that.

3n-2=10-2n\\\Rightarrow 3n+2n=10+2\\\Rightarrow 5n=12\\\Rightarrow n = \dfrac{12}{5}

When we talk about n^{th} terms, n here is a whole number not a fractional number.

But as per the statement as stated by Sally n is a fractional number, only then the two sequences can have a number which is in the both sequences.

Therefore, no number can be in both the sequences A and B.

Hence, Sally is not right.

Leona purchased a $1,000 bond having a quoted price of 99.875. She had to pay a 5.5% brokerage fee (of the selling price). What
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

None of these choices are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quoted value of 99.875, means that this bond is sold at 99.875%  of the face value and not at a price of  $99.875.

Therefore, calculate price;

Price = 0.99875 * 1000

Price = $998.75

Since brokerage fees is 5.5% of the selling price, Leona will pay additional cost to the quoted price making the total cost to be more than $998.75;

Brokerage fees = (0.055*998.75) = $54.93

Total cost = $998.75 +$54.93

= $1053.68

Therefore, none of the choices is correct.
