Answer:
(c) $72
Step-by-step explanation:
Each tile is 8/12 ft = 2/3 ft on a side. Then 8/(2/3) = 12 tiles will fit along each edge of the square area to be tiled. That is ...
12 × 12 = 144
tiles will be needed to cover the area.
The cost of 144 tiles at $0.50 each is ...
(144)($0.50) = $72.00
Answer:
Each hot dog = $3
Each french fry = $2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, lets define our variables:
x = Hotdog
y = fries
Next, you need to set up a cost equation for both Toby and Bernie:
8x + 5y = 34
2x + 6y = 18
Now, we need to isolate one of the variable:
2x + 6y = 18
2x = 18 - 6y
x = 9 - 3y
Next, we need to insert this equation back into the first equation (8x+5y = 34) to find the cost of y (fries):
8x +5y = 34
8 (9-3y) + 5y = 34
72 - 24y + 5y = 34
72 - 19y = 34
19y = 38
y or fries = $2
Finally, we need to find the cost of each hotdog by using the cost of fries ($2) in one of the formulas:
2x + 6y = 18
2x + 6(2) = 18
2x + 12 = 18
2x = 6
x or hotdog = $3
I hope this helps!

If u subtract 6-9 u would get a -3 because the 9 is bigger than the 6 so thats how you get a -3.
The answer is definitely 60%
