Answer:the cost of one drink is $7

the cost of 1 bag of popcorn is $6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one drink.

Let y represent the cost of 1 bag of popcorn.

Aiden spends a total of $46.00 on 6 drinks and 1 bag of popcorn. This means that

6x + y = 46 - - - -- - - - - - -1

Jeremiah spends a total of $134.00 on 12 drinks and 8 bags of popcorn. This means that

12x + 8y = 134 - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 8 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes

48x + 8y = 368

12x + 8y = 134

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes

36x = 234

x = 234/36 = 6.5

Substituting x = 6.5 into equation 1, it becomes

6 × 6.5 + y = 46

39 + y = 46

y = 46 - 39 = 7

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4, -9) and (5, 3)
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving from (-4, -9) to (5, 3), x (the 'run') increases by 9 from -4 to 5, and y (the 'rise') increases by 12 from -9 to +3.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting the two points is

m = rise / run = 12/9 = 4/3

It may help to think of the change in x (9) as the horizontal leg of a right triangle and the change in y (12) as the vertical leg.  Then  

m = (vertical leg length) / (horizontal leg length) = 12/9 = 4/3

Gianna is preparing for the upcoming tennis season. According to her schedule, she can complete at most 10 workouts this week. I
Strike441 [17]
The whole number of minutes that Gianna complete each week as a function of x and y:
45x+30y
Since the above number is greater than 450 minutes, we get the inequality:
45x+30y\geq450
Also, "she can complete at most 10 workouts this week" so we deduce the inequality:
\\x+y\leq10
Therefore, the system of inequalities is the following:
45x+30y\geq450
\\x+y\leq10
The above system has many solutions, for example :
