Amount of money collected in the 2-day fundraiser is represented by the following equations:

  • 12x + 4y = 152 .................. (i)
  • 32x + 12y = 420 .................. (ii)

where x is the cost of a chicken lunch and y is the cost of a vegetarian lunch

Multiplying (i) with 3 and subtracting it from (ii)

36x + 12y - (32x + 12y) = 456 - 420

⇒ 4x = 36

⇒ x = 9

Put value of x in (i)

⇒ 12 × 9 + 4y = 152

⇒ 108 + 4y = 152

⇒ 4y = 44

⇒ y = 11

Hence, cost of the vegetarian meal is 11.

What is the range of the function represented by the table? 2/2.5 4/5.0 6/7.5 8/10.00 10/12.5
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

{2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, 12.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time, would you please type in the table vertically:

2  2.5

4  5.0

6  7.5

and so on.

The range consists of all the possible numerical outputs of the function for given inputs:  {2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, 12.5}.  Without knowing the outputs for other, unknown inputs, we cannot be more detailed in specifying the range.

Jason went to the Hamburger Shack twice last week.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Cost of 1 hamburger = $1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume;

Cost of 1 hamburger = a

Cost of 1 French fries = b

On first trip

3a + 4b = 7.10......eq1

On second trip

2a + b = 3.40....eq2

From eq2 x 4

8a + 4b = 13.6....eq3

From eq3 - eq1

5a = 6.5

a = 1.3

Cost of 1 hamburger = $1.3

Of the 85% of the students in a class who studied for a test,75% passed the test.Of the 15% of the students who didn't study,30%
galina1969 [7]
Probability works for any given number, so we will assume there are 100 students. Of those 100, 85 of them studied. Since 75% of 85 students passed, we will multiply 85 by 0.75. This gives us 60. So of the students who studied, 60 of them passed. Of the 15 students that didn’t study, 30 percent passed. So we multiply 15 by 0.3. This gives us 4.5 students. Add up 60 and 4.5, and you get 64.5. The probability of passing is 64.5%. If you want to round up, it would be 65%. If you want to round down, it would be 64%. But the most precise answer is 64.5%.
