Answer:
x= -48 y =48
Step-by-step explanation:
-46 and 2 is -48 numbers away
Let the cost of the soft drink = C then the price of the sandwich was 3.5 times as much = 3.5C
And
C + 3.5C = Total Cost
C + 3.5C = 9
4.5C = 9 divide both sides by 4.5
C = 9/4.5 = $2.00 for the soft drink
And 3.5C = 3.5(2.00) = $7.00 cost of the sandwich
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 × 2/3
3 × 2/4 × 3
6/12 = 1/2
Thus, 3/4 × 2/3 = 1/2

Answer:
Length of route that passes the mall= 11 miles
Length of route that passes the theater= 13 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
route to school that passes the mall (highlighted in red)
= (x +1) +(x +2)
= 2x +3
route to school that passes the theater (in yellow)
= (2x +1) +x
= 3x +1
Since the first is 2 miles shorter,
2x +3= 3x +1 -2
Simplify:
2x +3= 3x -1
Bring constants to 1 side, x terms to the other:
3x -2x= 3 +1
x= 4
Substitute x=4 to find the length of each route:
Length of the route that passes the mall
= 2x +3
= 2(4) +3
= 8 +3
= 11 miles
Length of route that passes the theater
= 3x +1
= 3(4) +1
= 12 +1
= 13 miles
Alternatively, length of route that passes the theater
= 11 +2= 13 miles since it is 2 miles longer than that which passes the mall.
