Answer:
- cookie: $1.25
- cupcake: $2.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the cost of a cookie and a cupcake, respectively.
4x +3y = 13.25
5x +2y = 11.75 . . . . . . the system of equations
___
By Cramer's rule:
x = (3(11.75) -2(13.25))/(3(5) -2(4)) = 8.75/7 = 1.25
y = (13.25(5) -11.75(4))/7 = 19.25/7 = 2.75
The cost of one cookie is $1.25; the cost of one cupcake is $2.75.

Answer:
32x⁵ + 240x⁴ + 720x³ + 1080x² + 810x + 243
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x + 3)⁵
₅C₀ (2x)⁵ (3)⁰ + ₅C₁ (2x)⁴ (3)¹ + ₅C₂ (2x)³ (3)² + ₅C₃ (2x)² (3)³ + ₅C₄ (2x)¹ (3)⁴ + ₅C₅ (2x)⁰ (3)⁵
Use Pascal's triangle to find nCr.

1 (2x)⁵ (3)⁰ + 5 (2x)⁴ (3)¹ + 10 (2x)³ (3)² + 10 (2x)² (3)³ + 5 (2x)¹ (3)⁴ + 1 (2x)⁰ (3)⁵
(2x)⁵ + 15 (2x)⁴ + 90 (2x)³ + 270 (2x)² + 405 (2x)¹ + 243
32x⁵ + 240x⁴ + 720x³ + 1080x² + 810x + 243
The common denominator is already there 12 is the common denominator!! :)
Your answer would be <em />answer choice C. The initial number of transactions is a dependent variable, because the number of transactions made are dependent on the number of hours that have passed.
