Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one white chocolate pretzel.

Let y represent the cost of one dark chocolate pretzel.

Rico bought 4 white chocolate pretzels and 6 dark chocolate pretzels for $10.50. This means that

4x + 6y = 10.5 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Holden bought 8 white chocolate and 3 dark chocolate pretzels for $9.75. This means that

8x + 3y = 9.75 - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 8 and equation 2 by 4, it becomes

32x + 48y = 84

32x + 12y = 39

Subtracting, it becomes

36y = 45

y = 45/36 = $1.25

Substituting y = 1.25 into equation 1, it becomes

4x + 6 × 1.25 = 10.5

4x + 7.5 = 10.5

4x = 10.5 - 7.5 = 3

x = 3/4 = $0.75

the total cost for 6 white chocolate pretzels and one dark chocolate pretzel would be

6 × 0.75 + 1 × 1.25 = 4.5 + 1.25 = $5.75

<u>Answer:</u>

  • The length of the side is 33 yards.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<em>We can solve for 'b' using Pythagoras theorem. Let's solve it.</em>

  • 65² = b² + 56²
  • => 4225 = b² + 3136
  • => b² = 1089

Help ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

A Swedish court said Friday that rapper ASAP Rocky will be detained for another week as prosecutors decide whether to formally charge him following a fight last month in downtown Stockholm.

The rapper, born Rakim Mayers, has been in Swedish custody, along with two of his associates, since early July after a June 30 altercation that Rocky’s supporters say he tried to avoid. Under the court’s decision Friday, the men could be detained until at least July 25.

Concerns have mounted for the men amid reports that they are being held in “inhumane conditions,” including long daily periods of solitary confinement. A growing number of lawmakers and celebrities, including Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, has called for their release.
