One burrito salad costs $8.49 and one tortilla salad costs $3.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the cost of one burrito

y be the cost of one tortilla

According to given statement;

2x+y=20.57    Eqn 1

3x+3y=36.24    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 3

3(2x+y=20.57)\\6x+3y=61.71\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

(6x+3y)-(3x+3y)=61.71-36.24\\6x+3y-3x-3y=25.47\\3x=25.47

Dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{25.47}{3}\\x=8.49

Putting x=8.49 in Eqn 1

2(8.49)+y=20.57\\16.98+y=20.57\\y=20.57-16.98\\y=3.59

One burrito salad costs $8.49 and one tortilla salad costs $3.59

a computer and printer a totoal cost $1132 the cost of the computer is three times the cost of the ptinter
zavuch27 [327]
Use a system of equations

C+P=1132
3P=C

Substitute C in first equation as
3P+P=1132
Simplify
4P=1132
Solve
P=1132/4
P=283

NOW SOLVE FOR C SUBSTITUTING P VALUE IN FIRST EQUATION

C+283=1132
C=1132-283
C=849


Printer = 283$
Computer = 849$

Please simplify this fraction c:
Liula [17]
F you just want to see the really short way, just skip down to AAAAAAAAAAAA

so, here is the long explanation
exponential properties
x^{-m}= \frac{1}{x^m}

don't forget pemdas
2x^2=2(x^2)

so
\frac{2x^{-4}}{3xy}=\frac{2 \frac{1}{x^4} }{3xy}=  \frac{2}{3x^5y}


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
so we see
the original equatio is
\frac{2x^{-4}}{3xy}

remember
\frac{ab}{cd} =( \frac{a}{c})( \frac{b}{d})

so we can seperate the constants
\frac{ab}{cd} =( \frac{2}{3})( \frac{x^{-4}}{xy})

we know that the placeholders cannot affet the position of the constants unless they are grouped together which they are not

terfor the answer must have 2/3 in it

the only one that hsa that is A
