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

Pls help me calculate the inverse of y equals 2x over x-7
NeTakaya
Y = 2x/x-7

x = 2y/y-7

xy - 7x = 2y

-7x = 2y - xy

-7x = y(2-x)

y = -7x / 2-x

y = 7x / x-2


f-¹(x) = 7x / x-2

Square ABCD is located on a coordinate plane. The coordinates for three of the vertices are listed below.
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

B'(16,14)

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the coordinates of the vertex B. The center of the square M is the midpoint of the diagonal AC. Since A(2,7) and C(8,1), the center has coordinates

M\left(\dfrac{2+8}{2},\dfrac{7+1}{2}\right)=M(5,4).

Point M is also the midpoint of the diagonal BD. Let B has coordinates (x,y), then

\dfrac{x+2}{2}=5\Rightarrow x=8,\\ \\\dfrac{y+1}{2}=4\Rightarrow y=7.

Hence, B(8,7).

Now, the dilation by a scale factor 2 with the center of dilation at the origin has the rule

(x,y)→(2x,2y).

Thus,

B(8,7)→B'(16,14).
