Cost of the burger is $1.25 and the fries is $4.55

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Let the cost of a burger be x and that of fries be y. Form equations out of the given data.

x + 5y = 24 ------ (1)

6x + 2y = 16.60 ------ (2)

  • Step 2: Multiply eq(1) by 6 to make the coefficients of x equal.

6x + 30y = 144

6x + 2y = 16.60

  • Step 3: Subtract eq(2) from eq(1)

28y = 127.40

y = $4.55

  • Step 4: Find x.

x + 5 × 4.55 = 24

x + 22.75 = 24

x = $1.25

Answer: each burger costs $1.25

Each fry costs 4.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one burger.

Let y represent the cost of one fry.

The tennis coach took his team out for lunch and bought a burger and five fries for $24. This means that

x + 5y = 24- - - - - - - - - - - - -1

The players were still hungry so the coach bought 6 more burgers and two more fries for $16.60. This means that

6x + 2y = 16.6 - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes

6x + 30y = 144

6x + 2y = 16.6

Subtracting, it becomes

28y = 127.4

y = 127.4/28

y = 4.55

Substituting y = 4.55 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 5 × 4.55 = 24

x + 22.75 = 24

x = 24 - 22.75

x = 1.25

Angle AXD = angle CXB (vertically opposite angle)
then angle ADB = angle ABC 
then angle DAB = angle BCD 
I couldn't remember the name of the rule 
I said that they are equal if you look at the curve AC and DB
They called them that two angles that subtended by the same mirror (arc)
lead them to be a similar angle (angle - angle - angle)

Which of the following can be the side lengths of a triangle?
dolphi86 [110]
To solve this question, we need to know the triangle inequality property, which states that the sum of two legs of a triangle is always <em>greater </em>(it can't be equal to) than the third leg. Using this property, we can deduct that the only answer that works is A, 6,6, and 5.
