Answer:

cost of a bag of hot Cheetos = 0.75 and cost of a pack of sour patch kids = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a bag of hot cheetos be c

Let the cost of a pack of sour patch kids be k

Thus, for Jasmine, the equation will be;

3c + 2k = 5.25 - - - - (eq1)

For Michael, the equation will be;

7c + 3k = 9.75 - - - - - (eq2)

We will use method of elimination to solve this.

Multiply (eq 1) by 3 and (eq 2) by 2 to give;

9c + 6k = 15.75 - - (eq4)

14c + 6k = 19.5 - - -(eq5)

Subtract (eq4) from (eq 5) to get;

5c = 19.5 - 15.75

5c = 3.75

c = 3.75/5

c = 0.75

Put 0.75 for c in (eq 4) to get;

9(0.75) + 6k = 15.75

6.75 + 6k = 15.75

6k = 15.75 - 6.75

6k = 9

k = 9/6

k = 1.5

Thus; cost of a bag of hot Cheetos = 0.75 and cost of a pack of sour patch kids = 1.5

Describe a situation that can be represented by the integer 20 and its opposite.

You can be going the speed limit, 20 mph, or you can be going 20 mph under the speed limit. Which would mean you'd be stationary or not moving.

Hello there!

The answer to this question will be answer choice A.

When using the SAS postulate, we need two pairs of sides and the pair of the angles between those two sides to be congruent.

It is given that one pair of sides are congruent, along with a pair of congruent angles.

We want the congruent angle to be between two congruent sides, thus AC must be congruent to EC in order for these triangles to be proven congruent by the SAS postulate.

Hope this helps and have an awesome day! :)

Which condition must be satisfied in order to use the arc length formula L = the integral from a to b of sqrt(1 + f'(x)^2) dx?
ivanzaharov [21]
Looking through my old calc notes, I am reading that f(x) needs to be continuous on [a,b] and f ' (x) also needs to be continuous on [a,b]. Both conditions are needed. If you had to pick just one, then I'd say f(x) being continuous is much more important. Though I'm not 100% sure on this one. My thinking is that if there was any discontinuities on f(x), then the arc length would be distorted and overblown. The arc length should not account for any piece that isn't on the curve.
