Answer:

Let's denote:

Number or gifts cost 20 = x

Number or gifts cost 22.5 = y

Then, we have:

x + y = 10

20x + 22.5y = 217.5

=> 20(10 - y) + 22.5y = 217.5

=> 2.5y = 17.5

=> y = 7 (Number or gifts cost 22.5)

=> x = 10 - 7 = 3 (Number or gifts cost 20)

Hope this helps!

The cake density is 0.454 ounce per cubic inch and the fair price is $0.20 per ounce. What should be a fair price for each cake?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

price = x * 0.2

or

price = x * 0.454 * 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we must know either the mass of the cake or its volume.

Given the case that we know the mass of the cake, it would be:

price = x * 0.2

where x is the mass of the cake in ounces, that is to say if for example a cake has a mass of 10 ounces, it would be:

price = 10 * 0.2 = 2

which means that each cake costs $ 2

Given the case of the volume, we must first multiply the density by this volume in order to calculate the mass and finally the price.

price = x * 0.454 * 0.2

where x is the volume of the cake in cubic inches, if for example the volume is 10 cubic inches it would be:

price = 10 * 0.454 * 0.2 = 0.908

which means that each cake costs $ 0.9
