Answer:
The price of a package of chocolate chip is $13.25
The price of a package of gingerbread is $17.18
Step-by-step explanation:
11x + 12y = 352
10x +8y = 270
Let "x" be the price of a package of chocolate chip.
Let "y" be the price of a package of gingerbread.
11x + 12y = 352(Multiply the 1st row by 10)
10x +8y = 270 (Multiply the 2nd row by 11)
-------------------
110x + 120y = 3520
110x +88y = 2970
--------------------------
3y = 550
y =550/3
y = 17.1875
The price of a package of gingerbread "y" is $17.18
Let's pick the first equation "110x + 120y = 3520"
110x + 120y = 3520
110x+ 120(17.1875)= 3520
110x+2062.5=3520
110x=3520−2062.5
110x=1457.5
x= 1457.5/110
x=13.25
The price of a package of chocolate chip is $13.25
Given:
Bees scored 9 less than three times as many points as the Hornets.
Wasps scored 28 more points than the Hornets.
Together the three teams scored 184 points.
To find:
The required equation for this scenario.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of points scored by the Hornets.
Bees scored 9 less than three times as many points as the Hornets.
Bees score = 3x-9
Wasps scored 28 more points than the Hornets.
Wasps score = x+28
Together the three teams scored 184 points.
Therefore, the required equation is .
Plotting the points could help you notice that they lie along a parabola. In particular, you can see that 
is always 4 more than 
.
So, the relation is
To find the hypotenuse of a right triangle you can use the Pythagorean theorem. (a² + b² = c²) Using the measurements provided we can solve like this.
Both a² & b² = 7²
7 x 7 = 49
49 + 49 = 98
Now we need to find the square root of 98 (c²) to get our answer.
9.9 x 9.9 = 98.01 or about 98
The measurements for the tirangle are 7 units, 7 units, and 9.9 units.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
y = 3x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -1/3 x +2
The slope is -1/3
We want a line perpendicular to it
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes
The new slope is -(-3/1) = 3
We have a slope m=3 and a point (5,6)
We will use point slope form to find the line
y-y-1 = m(x-x1)
y-6 = 3(x-5)
In slope intercept form
Distribute
y-6 = 3x-15
Add 6 to each side
y-6+6 = 3x-15+6
y = 3x-9
