For the end-of-year party, Mt.Rise Middle School ordered 112 pizzas. There were eight fewer veggie pizzas than there were pepper

oni pizzas. There were three times as many combo pizzas as pepperoni pizzas. Use the 5-D process to define a variable and write an equation for this situation. Then determine how many of each kind of pizza were ordered.

Let the number of pepperoni pizzas be x
pepperoni = x
veggie = x - 8    [<span>There were eight fewer veggie than pepperoni]
</span>combo = 3x       [T<span>here were three times as many combo as pepperoni]
</span>
Given that the total Pizza: 112
x + x - 8 + 3x = 112
5x - 8 = 112
5x = 112 + 8
5x = 120
x = 24

x= 24
x - 8 = 16
3x = 72

So there were 24 pepperoni pizza, 16 veggie pizza and 72 combo pizza

What is the solution of 3x + y = 9 and 3x − 5y = 15?
Marianna [84]
So there are two ways.
First you could solve for y and plug it into the calculator. one equation for y1 and another for y2. Then go 2nd trace and press 5 and then press enter 3 times  to find the intersection. 
the second way is to solve by hand. I would suggest solve the first equation for y and plug the equation solved for y into the other equation. so y = -3x + 9 and 3x-5y=15. Then you could do 3x - 5(-3x+9) = 15. Finally solve for x and plug in x into both equations to see if you get the same y value. 
The answer should be (10/3, -1)

How do you get the answer to a math problem -k+h+kh k=-5 h=-2
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Final answer is 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is

-k+h+kh

We also have been given values of h and k as:

k=-5 h=-2

to simplify the given expression, we just need to plug the given values of k=-5 and h=-2 into -k+h+kh

-k+h+kh

=-(-5)+(-2)+(-5)(-2)

=5+(-2)+(-5)(-2)

=5-2+(-5)(-2)

=5-2+(10)

=5-2+10

=3+10

= 13

Hence final answer is 13.
