The price of 1 drink is $ 4 and price of 1 pretzel is $ 4.25

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let d" be the price of 1 drink

Let "p" be the price of 1 pretzel

Given that, Isabella went into a movie theater and bought 3 drinks and 10 pretzels, costing a total of $54.50

<em><u>Therefore, we can frame a equation as,</u></em>

3 x price of 1 drink + 10 x price of 1 pretzel = 54.50

3 \times d + 10 \times p = 54.50

3d + 10p = 54.5 ---------- eqn 1

Jason went into the same movie theater and bought 9 drinks and 5 pretzels, costing a total of $57.25

9 x price of 1 drink + 5 x price of 1 pretzel = 57.25

9 \times d + 5 \times p = 57.25

9d + 5p = 57.25 ---------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

Multiply eqn 1 by 3

9d + 30p = 163.5 ----- eqn 3

<em><u>Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 3</u></em>

9d + 30p = 163.5

9d + 5p = 57.25

( - ) -----------------------

25p = 106.25

p = 4.25

<em><u>Substitute p = 4.25 in eqn 1</u></em>

3d + 10(4.25) = 54.5

3d + 42.5 = 54.5

3d = 54.5 - 42.5

3d = 12

d = 4

Thus price of 1 drink is $ 4 and price of 1 pretzel is $ 4.25

Create a 5th degree trinomial that has a constant term of 3.
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

4x^5\:+\:9x^2\:+\:3 is a trinomial having three terms, with degree 5 and the constant term '3'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the trinomial

4x^5\:+\:9x^2\:+\:3

As the polynomial contains 3 terms, so it is a trinomial.

As the highest power of the variable 'x' is 5, so the degree of this polynomial is 5.

Any term with no variable is called a constant term. so, 3 is a term with no variable. Therefore, the constant term is 3.

Therefore, 4x^5\:+\:9x^2\:+\:3 is a trinomial having three terms, with degree 5 and the constant term '3'.

Find the equation of the line that passes through point (7,5) and (-9,5)
Papessa [141]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 9, 5)

m = \frac{5-5}{-9-7} = \frac{0}{-16} = 0

This means the line is horizontal and parallel to the x- axis with equation

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (7, 5) and (- 9, 5) with y- coordinates 5, thus

y = 5 ← equation of line

(0.9) *(1.5 +5.8)
lisov135 [29]
(0.9)* (1.5+5.8)
First, Add the values to the right. You get (0.9) * (7.3)
Multiply 9 and 73 to get 730 -73, which is 700-43, 660 - 3, which is 657.
Divide by 100 by moving the decimal point to get 6.57 as your final answer.

Hope that helped!
