Answer:

The cost of one large drink is $1.50.

(13.5-10) + 4 = (7.5 ÷ 5) = $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to minus the $10.00 from the $13.50, which gives us $3.50.

<em>13.5 - 10 </em>

We've done this because the pizza is irrelevant to what we're trying to figure out, so we subtract the price of the food, which as we already know is $10, to isolate the price of the 5 drinks to make it easier to find the price of just one.

Once we've done that, we're going to add on the $4.00 they got discounted to the $3.50 in order to find the original price of the drinks without using the gift certificate.

<em>(13.5 - 10) + 4</em>

This gives us $7.50, or the price of 5 large drinks. But we're only looking for the price of one. So we're going to divide the 7.50 by the total number of drinks ordered.

<em>(13.5-10) + 4 = (7.5 ÷ 5)</em>

This gives us 1.5, or $1.50.

<em>(13.5-10) + 4 = (7.5 ÷ 5) = $1.50</em>

<em></em>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two points can be made into a right triangle with the two sides defined by   two lines drawn from the two given points.  Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the hypotenuse, the distance between the two points.  See attached graph.

6^2 + 2^2 = x^2

36 + 4 = x^2

drek231 [11]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

We use unit rate function,

Let h be hours

Let b be baskets

2.5h = 150b

We divide both sides by 2.5

2.5h/2.5 = 150b/2.5

Which will give us

h = 60
