At a concession stand, a pickle and two bags of chips costs a total of $3.25. Three pickles and four bags of chips costs a total

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

A bag of chips costs $1

A pickle costs $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

P + 2c = 3.25 Start with these two equations

3p + 4c = 7.25

p = -2c + 3.25 Solve for one variable

3(-2c +3.25) + 4c = 7.25 Substitute

-6c + 9.75 + 4c = 7.25

-2c = -2

c = 1

p + 2(1) = 3.25 Substitute

p + 2 = 3.25

p = 1.25

Find the midpoint between (4,-1) and (3,2)

zepelin [54]

Midpoint has form of,

$M(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

We can insert the data,

$M(\dfrac{4+3}{2},\dfrac{-1+2}{2})$

Which simplifies to,

$\boxed{M(3.5, 0.5)}$

Hope this helps.
