Answer:

2x + 7 = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since triangle RTS is isosceles, RT is congruent to RS. So you can set up the equation 2x + 7 = 3x - 5 to find x. Then you can input the value of x into 2x +7 or 3x - 5 to find the measure of the congruent sides.

Priya is buying raisins and almonds to make trail mix. Almonds cost $5.20 per pound and raisins cost $2.75 per pound. Priya spen

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

3.48pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

cost of Almonds= $5.2

cost of raisins= $2.75

total cost = $11.7

given that the relationship that represents the cost for the two quantities is

5.20a + 2.75r = 11.70

where a= almond

r= raisin

we are going to substitute a=0.41 in the expression to solve for r

5.20(0.41) + 2.75r = 11.70

2.132+2.75r=11.7

collect like terms

2.75r=11.7-2.132

2.75r=9.568

r=9.568/2.75

r=3.48

The y-intercept is 28, while the slope is
$- \frac{9}{2}$
I did this by moving the x to left, then dividing everything by 4.
