The cost of 1 hamburger is $ 2.5 and cost of 1 fries is $ 0.8

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "f" be the cost of 1 fries

Let "h" be the cost of 1 hamburger

<em><u>Given that, tennis coach took his team out for lunch and bought 8 hamburgers and 5 fries for $24</u></em>

8 x cost of 1 hamburger + 5 x cost of 1 fries = 24

8 \times h + 5 \times f = 24

8h + 5f = 24 -------- eqn 1

<em><u>The players were still hungry so the coach bought six more hamburgers and two more fries for $16.60</u></em>

6 x cost of 1 hamburger + 2 x cost of 1 fries = 16.60

6 \times h + 2 \times f = 16.60

6h + 2f = 16.60 ------ eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

Multiply eqn 1 by 2

16h + 10f = 48 ------ eqn 3

Multiply eqn 2 by 5

30h + 10f = 83 -------- eqn 4

<em><u>Subtract eqn 3 from eqn 4</u></em>

30h + 10f = 83

16h + 10f = 48

( - ) ----------------------

14h = 35

<h3>h = 2.5</h3>

Substitute h = 2.5 in eqn 1

8(2.5) + 5f = 24

20 + 5f = 24

5f = 4

<h3>f = 0.8</h3>

Thus cost of 1 hamburger is $ 2.5 and cost of 1 fries is $ 0.8

When do you reject the null hypothesis?
Nimfa-mama [501]

You reject the Null Hypothesis when you have a small P-Value. Here is an example! Also we never accept the null hypothesis, think of it like this if we bring someone to court you wouldn't say their innocent of a crime, you only know that if they do not get convicted of the crime they are not guilty in the eyes of the law. Same thing applies here, since there could be several answers that satisfy our assumptions made, we can not be certain that 1 of those assumptions is the REAL answer it's just AN answer.

Ms. Hernandez gave her students a math test
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

85-86%

Step-by-step explanation:

Make it an equation

You want to find the percent out of a hundred, so 42 is 100 since it is all of the questions and 36 is the unknown percent X

36/42 = X/100

36             X

42             100

Cross multiply

Do math and solve for X

36 x 100 = 42 x X

3600=42X

X=85.71

TEA [102]

Answer:

2.\:\frac{41}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that \frac{x}{9}=\lfloor \frac{x}{9} \rfloor + 0.\overline{[x\:\mod9]}.

Therefore, 4.\bar{5}=\frac{4\cdot 9 + 5}{9}=\fbox{$2)\:\frac{41}{9}$}.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

B) m∠ A'B'C' = m∠ABC

Step-by-step explanation:

A rotation does not change angle measure or side length.  It preserves congruence.

This means that the image angle, A'B'C', will be congruent to the pre-image angle, ABC.

The diameter of a bacteria colony that doubles every hour is represented by the graph below. What is the diameter of the bacteri
Nady [450]

Do you notice anything strange about those points ?

(0, 1), 
(1, 2), 
(2, 4),
(3, 8).

The y-coordinate of each point is (2) raised to the  power of the x-coordinate.

First point:       x=0,  y=2⁰ = 1
Second point: x=1,  y=2¹ = 2
Third point:      x=2,  y=2² = 4
Fourth point:    x=3,  y=2³ = 8


The equation of the curve appears to be

                               y = 2 ^ x .

So, after 10 hours,  x=10, and  y = 2¹⁰ = 1,024 .
