Answer: hot dog = $1.75

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

Let h represent hot dogs and c represent bags of chips.

Customer 1: 4h + 2c = 9.00  →  3(4h + 2c = 9.00)  →  12h + 6c =  27.00

Customer 2: 5h + 3c = 11.75 → -2(5h + 3c = 11.75)  → <u>-10h - 6c </u>= <u>-23.50</u>

                                                                                       2h        =    3.50

                                                                                   <u>   ÷2        </u>    <u>   ÷2    </u>

                                                                                        h        =    1.75

$55,000  - $10,000 = $45,000 

$55 - $15 = $40 

$45,000 ÷ $40 = 1,125 

So, your answer is 1,125 

For, future reference, in word problems, highlight the key terms and it may come easier to do them.

What is the slope for this table?
sdas [7]
<h3>Answer:   Slope = -3</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

Pick any two rows you want. I'll pick the middle two rows where every value is positive. So I'll pick these two rows:

  • x = 0 and y = 4
  • x = 1 and y = 1

They lead to the points (0,4) and (1,1). Apply the slope formula for these rows.

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (1-4)/(1-0)

m = -3/1

m = -3

The slope is -3

But you need to get to 100% so all you do is

70 - 100 = 30
