The soccer team is planning to sell health bars for a fundraiser. The prices of purchasing health bars from two different compan
ies are represented by the system of equations shown, where x is the number of bars purchased and y is the total cost in dollars. Company A: y = 0.75x. Company B: y = 10 + 0.50x. How many bars would the team need to purchase from each company in order for the total cost to be equal?
Let the equations given for the costs for Company A and Company B be equal such that, y (A) = y (B) 0.75x = 10 + 0.50x The value of x from the given equation is 40. Thus, each team should purchase 40 health bars.
The distance between Rockville and San Jose is 2407.2. Since there are 63360 inches in a mile, we divide it by 2, which is 31680. We multiply 2407.2 by 31680, and get 76260096.
