A waitress sold 11 ribeye steak dinners and 18 grilled salmon dinners, totaling 592.29 on a particular day. Another day she sold

16 rib eye steak dinners and 6 grilled salmon dinners, totaling 580.56. How much did each type of dinner cost?

Let the cost of 1 ribeye steak dinner = x

The cost of 1 salmon dinner = y

Then,

11x + 18y = 592.29   (1)

16x + 6y = 580.56   (2)

Multiplying the second equation by 3, we get,

48x + 18y = 1741.68   (3)

(3) - (1) gives

37x = 1149.39

x = 31.06

Substituting the value for x in (1), we get,

11(31.06) + 18y = 592.29

341.66 + 18y = 592.29

18y = 250.63

y = 13.92

Hence, the cost of ribeye steak dinner = 31.06 and the cost of grilled salmon dinner = 13.92.

Generate the first 5 terms of this sequence:
Fiesta28 [93]
<span> f(3) = f(2) + f(1) => 3 + 2 = 5

f(4) = f(3) + f(2) => 5 + 3 = 8

f(5) = f(4) + f(3) => 8 + 5 = 13

Therefore the sequence is 2, 3, 5, 8, 13,.....a Fibonacci sequence.

Consider the following sets of matrices: M2(R) is the set of all 2 x 2 real matrices; GL2(R) is the subset of M2(R) with non-zer
defon

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

REcall the following definition of induced operation.

Let * be a binary operation over a set S and H a subset of S. If for every a,b elements in H it happens that a*b is also in H, then the binary operation that is obtained by restricting * to H is called the induced operation.

So, according to this definition, we must show that given two matrices of the specific subset, the product is also in the subset.

For this problem, recall this property of the determinant. Given A,B matrices in Mn(R) then det(AB) = det(A)*det(B).

Case SL2(R):

Let A,B matrices in SL2(R). Then, det(A) and det(B) is different from zero. So

\text{det(AB)} = \text{det}(A)\text{det}(B)\neq 0.

So AB is also in SL2(R).

Case GL2(R):

Let A,B matrices in GL2(R). Then, det(A)= det(B)=1 is different from zero. So

\text{det(AB)} = \text{det}(A)\text{det}(B)=1\cdot 1 = 1.

So AB is also in GL2(R).

With these, we have proved that the matrix multiplication over SL2(R) and GL2(R) is an induced operation from the matrix multiplication over M2(R).

<h3>Answer: 285, choice A</h3>

=================================================

Explanation:

x = number of attendees

y = cost

If you increase the number of attendees (x) by 15, then the cost (y) goes up by 105. We see this by subtracting the values

30 - 15 = 15

495 - 390 = 105

Divide the change in cost over the change in people. So we have 105/15 = 7

The 7 represents the unit rate, which is the amount of money it costs for one person. Each time we add a person, it costs $7. So we can say "it costs 7 dollars per person"

At 7 dollars per person, 15 people will be charged 15*7 = 105. However, the table shows $390 is the actual cost. So 390 - 105 = 285 is the base cost

Or you can use the second column. If we had 30 people, then 7*30 = 210 is the cost without the base cost added on. The table shows 495, so 495-210 = 285 which is the same answer as before.

-------------------------------------

Alternative method

This method involves more equations and algebra

First use the slope formula. You can use any two points from the table. I'm going to use (15, 390) and (30, 495)

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (495-390)/(30-15)

m = (105)/(15)

m = 7 <<--- this is the unit rate, aka cost per person

Use the slope and one of the points to find the y intercept

y = mx+b

y = 7x+b

390 = 7(15)+b

390 = 105+b

105+b = 390

b = 390-105

b = 285 <<-- this is the y intercept, aka base cost

The base cost is the price you pay to get in the door. This cost stays the same no matter how many people are in your party. The equation would be y = 7x+285. Note how plugging in x = 15 leads to y = 390. At the same time, plugging in x = 30 leads to y = 495.
