Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>No. You would have to cut the number of veggie burgers in more than half.</u>
Explanation:
<u>1. Model the situation with a system of equations</u>
<u />
<u>a) Name the variables:</u>
- number of turkey burgers: t
- number of veggie burgers: v
<u />
<u>b) Number of burgers:</u>
<u />
<u>c) Cost of the 50 burgers:</u>
<u>2. Solve that system of equations:</u>
<u />
<u>a) System</u>
<u>b) Mutliply the first equation by 2 and subtract the second equation</u>
- 100 = 2t + 2v
- 90 = 2t + 1.50v
- v = 20 ⇒ t = 50 - 20 = 30
<u />
<u>c) How much would you spend if the next year you buy the double of 20 turkey burgers (40) and the half of 30 veggie burgers (15)</u>
- $2(40) + $1.50(15) = $80 + $22.50 = $102.50
Then, you if you double the number of turkey burgers, and cut the number burgers in half, you would spend more than $90 ($102.50).
Nonlinear because the first differences are all different
6-3/4x+1/3=1/2x+5
6+1/3-5=1/2x+3/4x
4/3=5/4x
x=16/15
Answer:
x=59
Step-by-step explanation:
x+12+x+x-9=180
3x+3=180
-3 -3
3x=177/3
x=59
