Answer: Each burger costs $4 and each order of fries costs $2.5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of each burger and y be the cost of each orders of fries.

Given : Jim bought 3 burgers and 2 orders of fries for $17.

Abby bought 2 burgers and 4 orders of fries for $18.

Then, the system of linear equation will become :

3x+2y=17-------(1)\\\\2x+4y=18-------(2)

Divide by 2 on each sides of equation (2), we get

x+2y=9-------(3)

Eliminate equation (3) from (1), we get

2x=8

Divide by 2 on both sides , we get

x=4

Put value of x in (3), we get

4+2y=9

Subtract 3  both sides, we gte

2y=5

Divide by 2 both sides , we get

y=2.5

Hence, each burger costs $4 and each order of fries costs $2.5 .

The number of trees in a rainforest decreases each month by 0.5%. The forest currently has 2.5 billion trees. Which expression r
Blababa [14]

Answer:

y=2.5*10^9(0.005^{12 0}) \\\\

Step-by-step explanation:

The above question is in the form of an exponential decay. The equation for an exponential decay is given by:

y=ab^x

where y and x are variables, b < 1, a is the initial value of y (that is the value of y when x = 0).

Let y represent the number of trees left and x represent the number of months. Given that there is currently 2.5 billion trees, therefore a = 2.5 * 10⁹, b = 0.5% = 0.005. The equations becomes:

y=2.5*10^9(0.005^x)\\\\After\ ten\ years(x=10*12\ months=120\ months):\\\\y=2.5*10^9(0.005^{12 0}) \\\\

f(x) = g(x) will be the input or x value at which f and g have the same output or y value. Look in the table where two numbers repeat right next to each other.

−1 −7/2 −9/2

0 −3 −3

1 −2 −3/2

2 0 0

3 4 3/2

4 12 3

5 28 9/2

There are two solutions to f(x) = g(x) which are x=0 and x=2.

Finding the roots (zeros)
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

1.5 + 1.3228756555323i

1.5 - 1.3228756555323i

Step-by-step explanation:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

a = 1, b = -3, c = 4

Using the quadractic formula:

\frac{-b±\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} \\\\= \frac{3±\sqrt{9-4(1)(4)}}{2(1)}\\\\= \frac{3±2.64i}{2}\\\\= 1.5 ±  1.32

Note: Kindly ignore the A in the above solution ^

Hence, there is no real solution. It has complex roots.
