18.6/6=3.1
1 hotdog=3.1
So, 3.1*5=15.50$

Answer:

$15.58

Step-by-step explanation:

18.60 divided by 6 = 3.01

18.60 - 3.01 = 15.58

Since it is one less than six. we just need to take away 1 part of the divided amount

For what value of a should you solve the system of elimination?

SIZIF [17.4K]

$\begin{bmatrix}3x+5y=10\\ 2x+ay=4\end{bmatrix}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:}3x+5y=10\mathrm{\:by\:}2: 6x+10y=20$
$\mathrm{Multiply\:}2x+ay=4\mathrm{\:by\:}3: 3ay+6x=12$

$\begin{bmatrix}6x+10y=20\\ 6x+3ay=12\end{bmatrix}$

6x + 3ay = 12
-
6x + 10y = 20

3a - 10y = -8

$\begin{bmatrix}6x+10y=20\\ 3a-10y=-8\end{bmatrix}$

$3a-10y=-8 \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Subtract\:}3a\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$
$3a-10y-3a=-8-3a$

$\mathrm{Simplify} \ \textgreater \ -10y=-8-3a \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-10$
$\frac{-10y}{-10}=-\frac{8}{-10}-\frac{3a}{-10}$

Simplify more.

$\frac{-10y}{-10} \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}: \frac{-a}{-b}=\frac{a}{b} \ \textgreater \ \frac{10y}{10}$

$6x+\frac{80}{10-3a}=20 \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{80}{10-3a}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$
$6x+\frac{80}{10-3a}-\frac{80}{10-3a}=20-\frac{80}{10-3a}$

$\mathrm{Simplify} \ \textgreater \ 6x=20-\frac{80}{10-3a} \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}6 \ \textgreater \ \frac{6x}{6}=\frac{20}{6}-\frac{\frac{80}{10-3a}}{6}$

$\frac{6x}{6} \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Divide\:the\:numbers:}\:\frac{6}{6}=1 \ \textgreater \ x$

$\frac{20}{6}-\frac{\frac{80}{10-3a}}{6} \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:\frac{a}{c}\pm \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\pm \:b}{c} \ \textgreater \ \frac{20-\frac{80}{-3a+10}}{6}$

$Therefore\;our\;solutions\;are\; y=\frac{8}{10-3a},\:x=\frac{10\left(-a+2\right)}{-3a+10}$

Hope this helps!

Factoring without Combining Like Terms

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

(x + 3)(2x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x² + 6x + 5x + 15 ← grouping the terms

= (2x² + 6x) + (5x + 15) ← factor each group

= 2x(x + 3) + 5(x + 3) ← factor out (x + 3) from each term

= (x + 3)(2x + 5) ← in factored form
