The cost of one hot dog is $1.75

The cost of one hamburger is $1.5

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Let,

  • The cost of hot dog be 'x'.
  • The cost of hamburger be 'y'.

The equations can be formed as :

7x + 4y = 18.25  --------(1)

4x + 7y = 17.50  --------(2)

Multiply eq (1) by 4 and eq (2) by 7,

   28x + 16y = 73

- (<u>28x + 49y = 122.5)</u>

  <u>        - 33y = - 49.5</u>

y = 49.5/33

y = 1.5

The cost of one hamburger is $1.5

Substitute y=1.5 in eq (1),

7x + 4(1.5) = 18.25

7x = 18.25 - 6

x = 12.25/7

x = 1.75

The cost of one hot dog is $1.75

Solve for X in the proportion below please help !!!

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{2x+1} = \frac{16}{40}

Step 1: Cross multiply

We want to eliminate all denominators, so we multiply the opposite numerators and denominators

\frac{x}{2x+1} = \frac{16}{40}\\\\\\x\cdot40 = 16(2x + 1)\\\\\\40x = 32x + 16

Step 2: Solve for x

Now we want x by itself, and we have to solve for x.

  • Move all terms with x on one side

             40x = 32x + 16\\\\\\40x - 32x = 16\\\\\\8x = 16

  • Now remove all coefficients with x

             8x = 16\\\\8(x) = 16\\\\x = 16/8\\\\x = 2

What is the missing angle? Please only if you know!
svlad2 [7]
Pythagorean Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2
C^2 being the missing angle because it’s the hypotenuse( angle diagonal from the 90degree box
4^2+13^2 = c^2
16+169=c^2
185=c^2
Then square root from both sides & c = 13.6
