Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to define a couple of variables. Let s = the cost of 1 squash and z = the cost of 1 zucchini.
Now lets translate the words into algebra:
"The cost of 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32" ===> 5s + 2z = 1.32
"Three squash and 1 zucchini cost $0.75" ===> 3s + z = 0.75
There are several ways to solve systems of equations. Let's use substitution. We can find what z equals in terms of s by manipulating the second equation:
3s + z = 0.75
-3s -3s
------------ -------------
z = -3s +0.75
Now lets substitute (-3s + 0.75) into the first equation for z, then solve for s:
5s + 2(-3s + 0.75) = 1.32
Can you handle it from here?
(Hint: Once you have solved for s, you can substitute that value back into either of the equations and solve for z.)
Answer:
Any equation of a line having a slope of 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
It appears that the question gives answer choices and this problem could have many solutions, but parallel lines have equal slopes. The slope of this line is 1/2 since it is in y=mx+b form where m is the slope. So a few examples of equations of lines parallel to the given equation would be y = 1/2x - 5 or y = 1/2x + 10 etc.
Kianna had 480 and she shared 1/8.....1/8 * 480 = 480/8 = 60
kyle had 420 and he shared 1/6....1/6 * 420 = 420/6 = 70
together, they shared (70 + 60) = 130
