Answer:  Fourth option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

x+4y=25.50------------------(1)\\\\3x+2y=24.00-----------------------(2)

Here, x is the number of strawberry smoothies.

and y is the number of protein shakes.

So, using elimination method, we get that,

Multiplying 2 by eq(2), we get that

6x+4y=48---------------(3)

From eq(1) and (3), we have

x+4y=25.50\\\\6x+4y=48\\\\-----------------------------------\\\\-5x=-22.5\\\\x=\dfrac{22.5}{5}\\\\x=4.5

Put the value of x in eq(1), we get that

4.50+4y=25.50\\\\4y=25.50-4.50\\\\4y=21\\\\y=\dfrac{21}{4}\\\\y=5.25

Hence, the price of protein shake is $5.25.

Thus, Fourth option is correct.

a piece of string is 3 yards long. How many 1 and a quarter yard long pieces can Julie cut from the string?
Georgia [21]
This question is actually a lot simpler than it seems

for a quarter think about money - a quarter is 25 cents or 1/4 of a dollar - so 1 and a quarter yard in decimal form is equivalent to 1.25

now you need to find how many 1 and a quarter yards are in 3 yards - to do this you simply divide 3 by 1.25

3/1.25 = 2.4

so julie can cut 2.4 1 and a quarter long pieces from the string

if you have any questions about how i answered this question please let me know:)
