Answer:

Hong = 25

Pablo = 100

Lashonda = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Hong's order be x , since Pablo served 4 times as many as Hong , then Pablo's order is 4x , also , since Lashonda served 7 fewer than Hong , it means Lashonda's order is x - 7 . combining all

Hong's orders = x

Pablo's order = 4x

Lashonda's order = x - 7

Total order = 143

Then

x + 4x + x - 7 = 143

6x - 7 = 143

6x = 143 + 7

6x = 150

x = 25

Therefore :

Hong served 25 orders

Pablo served 24x 4 orders = 100 orders

Lashonda served 25 - 7 orders = 18 orders

Write an equation in point-slope form if m = 5 and goes through (-2, 3)
Helen [10]

Answer:

y=5x+13 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

so you have to use the y=mx+b method

you plug in 3 for y and -2 for x

3=5(-2)+b,

multiply 5 and -2 to get -10

and it should leave you with 3=-10+b

add -10 to both sides, 10 + 3= 13 and 13 is your b (which is your y-intercept)

13=B

A sweater is on sale for $27. This is 75% of the original price. Find the original price.
Jobisdone [24]
If it the orginial price of the sweater is 75%, then 25% was taken off.

Turn 25% into a decimal. 

.25

Multiply that by 27.


27*.25= 6.75

Add that to the discounted price. 

27+6.75= 33.75

33.75 is your answer. 

I hope this helped you.

Brainliest answer would be appreciated.

Joanna went school supply shopping. She spent $27.75 on notebooks and pencils. Notebooks cost $2.30 each and pencils cost $1.25
GaryK [48]

Answer:

The answer is A. 5 notebooks and 13 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Identify your x and y variables.

x - number of notebooks

y - number of pencils

2. Set up two equations to come up with a system of linear equations.

x + y = 18

2.3x + 1.25y = 27.75

3. In order to solve for one of the variables (either x or y), multiply the first equation with the additive inverse (when added together, the answer is zero; one number will be positive while the other number will be negative) of the coefficient of either x or y, so you can eliminate that variable. In this case, I choose the coefficient of y which is 1.25. So, the first equation will look like this:

-1.25(x + y) = 18

-1.25x - 1.25y = -22.50

4. Next, eliminate the y variable and solve for x.

-1.25x - 1.25y = -22.50

2.3 x  + 1.25 y = 27.75

__________________

<u>1.05</u> x               = <u>5.25</u>

1.05                     1.05

      x                = 5       Joanna bought 5 notebooks.

5. Then, solve for y.

5 + y = 18

     y = 18 - 5

    y  = 13      Joanna bought 13 pencils.

If you want to check your work, just plug in 5 and 13 into one of the two original equations. Simplify the equations, and you should get a true statement.

5 + 13 = 18    

      18 = 18
