Harrison went out to buy coffee for his classmates. There are 23 students in his class, counting Harrison himself. Some wanted m

ochas, and some wanted lattes. At the coffee shop nearby, a mocha costs $4.30, while a latte costs $3.50. If Harrison bought one coffee for each student — including one for himself — and spent $87.70, how many of each coffee did he buy?

Answer:

4.30 + 3.50 =7.80 x 7 = 54.60  7 of each

87.70 -54.60 = 33.10

33.10 = 7 x 3.50 = 24.50 = 7 more latte

$8.60 left over = 2 more mocha

=14 latte and 9 mocha

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent the number of mochas bought with the variable M, and the number of lattes bought with the variable L.

Since there are 23 students, the total number of mochas and lattes bought must be 23. This can be represented with the following equation:

M + L = 23

We can also set up another equation based on the total amount spent on the coffe:

4.30M + 3.50L = 87.70

If we rearrange the first equation, we can solve for M:

M = 23 - L

If we substitute this into the second equation, we can solve for L:

4.30(23 - L) + 3.50L = 87.70

98.9 - 4.3L + 3.5L = 87.7

98.9 - 0.8L = 87.7

0.8L = 11.2

L = 14

Subtituting this back into the original equation, we can solve for M:

M + L = 23

M + 14 = 23

M = 9

Therefore, 9 mochas and 14 lattes were bought.

Which answer choice is equivalent to the expression 3x-1/2?
alex41 [277]

You can substitute a number in for x and compare the answer choices (not the most efficient way but it's how I would do it). Let's just say x = 5. Then the expression would equal 0.25819889. Substitute 5 in for x is the answer choices and see which one is the same.

A) simplified is 0.004 repeating

B) simplified is 0.25819889

C) simplified is 0.12

D) simplified is 1.341640786

We can see that B is the right answer

How much would it cost to buy 3 medium sodas and 2 hot dogs
Vesnalui [34]

To start off you need to figure out how much money each item costs.  Now get out your calculator because it will make this process go much faster.



EXAMPLE:

If your sodas cost $2.25 EACH you need to do the following math equation

2.25 X 3 = 6.75 witch is the total you would be paying in this situation.


HOT DOGS EXAMPLE:


Lets say that your hotdogs are $4.75 PER DOG. You just need to follow the same steps above.


4.75 X 2 = 9.5 but thats not how we write money so it would be $9.50


Hope this helps,
