Answer:
21.6 or 22
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles have same angles. This means that they are proportion.
50/27 = 40/x
when you cross multiply to solve x, 50x = 1080
so x = 21.6
If you have to nearest whole number, it will be 22
Statement A is correct.
7.99m is the unit rate for how much you will pay for each pound of meat.
5.99c is the unit rate for how much you will pay for each pound of cheese.
1. Multiply each equation so they end up with the same coefficient
2. Subtract your second equation from the first
3. Solve for one of the variables (I tend to solve an equation that only contains 2 variables if possible. So it would be if you have one question with x and y, solve for the easier one)
4. Substitute the variable you found in the least step into one of the other equations and find a second variable.
5. Substitute both variables you found into the last equation and there you should be left with x, y, and z :))
I hope this helped sksjsk if it didn’t I could write it out to hopefully help more :)
Each friend would have taken a total of 35 rides each.
This can be verified by multiplying 35 by 35 to get 1225.
