1 pizza should cost $5.65

Pizza is $5.65 then bottle of coke is $2.45

3 pizzas and coke: ($5.65*3) + $2.45 = $19.4

I solved this by setting up and solving a system of linear equations:

Variables: p = pizza, c = coke

p = c+3.2

3p+c = 19.4

Solve by substitution

3(c+3.2) + c = 19.4

4c+9.6 = 19.4

c = 2.45

Re-plug in:

p = 2.45+3.2

p = 5.65

Lisa is mailing a letter to a friend. Postage costs $0.32 for the first ounce and $0.23 for the additional ounce. How heavy can
Advocard [28]

Answer: 8.3 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

simple, there's a flat fee for 1 ounce, then 23 cents for each ounce following.

so $2 - $0.32 = $1.68

1.67 / 0.23 = 7.3 ounces

7.3 ounces + 1 ounces (from the flat fee we subtracted)

which equals 8.3

Malik collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps. He has 34 more domestic stamps than foreign stamps. Let x represent th
Effectus [21]

Answer:

y = 89 x = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

since they're both in standard form, its easier to do the process of elimination

x - y = 34

-x -y -212

------------------

-2y = -178

y = 89

now plug in y to any one of those two equations

x - y = 34

x - 89 = 34

x = 123

<em>to check:</em>

<em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>

<em>1</em><em>2</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em>9</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>

<em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>1</em><em>2</em>

There is a pair of x and y values that make each equation true in this system of equations
MAXImum [283]

Given Equations

  • 5x+3y=8--(1)
  • 4x+7y=34--(2)

Let it has solution (x,y)

Add both

\\ \sf\longmapsto 5x+4x+3y+7y=8+34

\\ \sf\longmapsto 9x+10y=42

It will also have same solution (x,y)

A dairy scientist is testing a new feed additive. She chooses 13 cows at random from a large population of cows. She randomly as
Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective of this experiment is to test if a new feed + additive generates a better production of milk in cows. For this, the owner selects 13 cows and randomly separates them into two groups.

Group 1 has 8 cows that receive the new feed + additive.

Group 2 has 5 cows that were fed with the old feed.

After two weeks of feeding the animals with the different feeds, the production of milk of each group was recorded so that they can be compared.

Since you have two separate groups to wich at random two different treatments were applied and later the variable was measured, these two samples/groups are independent and the proper test to compare the population means of the milk production in both groups is a pooled t.

I hope this helps!

The average rate of change of a function f(x) = x2 between x = 3 and x = 9 is
masya89 [10]

Answer:

12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change = (value of the function when x = 9 - value when x=3)

/

(9 - 3)

= f(9) - f(3) / (9-3)

= (9^2 - 3^2) / (9-3)

= 72 / 6

=  12.
