Answer:
Plates are 2.80 Dollars and cups are 1.40 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Cups = c
Plates = p
6p + 5c = 23.80 ==> multiply by 6 ==> 36p + 30c = 142.80
7p + 6c = 28.00 ==> multiply by 5 ==> 35p + 30c = 140.00
Now use algebra to have the 30c be on one side and the rest on the other:
36p + 30c = 142.80 | -36p
30c = 142.80 - 36p
35p + 30c = 140.00 | -35p
30c = 140.00 - 35p
Now set them equal to each other about the 30c:
142.80 - 36p = 140.00 - 35p
Use algebra to solve for p:
142.80 - 36p = 140.00 - 35p | +36p
142.80 = 140.00 + p | - 140
2.80 = p
Go back to one of the "30c" equations and plug in the value for p:
30c = 140 - 35p
30c = 140 - 35(2.80)
30c = 140 - 98
30c = 42 | /30
c = 42/30
c = 1.4

Answer:
B) 8
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, KLMN ~ PQRS. This means they are similar shapes.
From the image, we could denote that:
KL ~ PQ
LM ~ QR
Given that:
KL = 12
PQ = 30
QR = 20
LM = x
To find x, let's use tge expression:
Cross multiplying, we have:
12 * 20 = 30x
240 = 30x
To find x, let's divide both sides by 30.
8 = x
x = 8
The correct option is option B.
There will be 42 in each row with 2 left over
Is this question correct ?
