Answer:
1 plain = $0.75; 1 cheese = $0.95; 1 super = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
We have three conditions
(1) 5P = 3S
(2) S = C + 0.30
(3) P = C – 0.20 Substitute (3) into (1)
=====
(4) 5(C – 0.20) = 3S Substitute (2) into (4)
5(C – 0.20) = 3(C + 0.30) Remove parentheses
5C – 1.00 = 3C + 0.90 Add 1.00 to each side
5C = 3C + 1.90 Subtract 3C from each side
2C = 1.90 Divide each side by 2
C = $0.95 Substitute C into Equation (2)
=====
S = 0.95 + 0.30
S = $1.25 Substitute C into Equation (3)
=====
P = 0.95 – 0.20
P = $0.75
1 plain = $0.75; 1 cheese = $0.95; 1 super = $1.25
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
We can estimate* that the total price including tax of the game will be less than ...
$43.31 +10% of 43.31 = $43.31 +4.33 = $47.61
Todd easily has enough to pay for the game, including tax.
_____
You can work this more exactly a couple of ways.
1. Price + tax = 1.085×$43.31 = $46.99 . . . less than Todd's budget
2. Most Todd can afford: $55.50/1.085 = $51.15 . . . more than the game price
_____
* For estimating purposes, we like to use numbers that are easy to compute with. 10% is one such number, as it only requires moving the decimal point.
To get the answer we can use proportion.
30----------100%
12-----------x
Cross multiply now
30x=12*100%
30x=1200% /:30 (divide both sides by 30)
x=40% - it's the percentage of cars which finished the race.
100%-40%=60% - it's the answer
Answer:
Because the diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, the statement "segment SQ ≅ segment PR" is true.
