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.

Bingel [31]

Given:

Initial value of the stock = $100

Growth factor = 1.5 each week.

To find:

The equation that represents the relationship between the number of weeks past since purchase and the current value of the stock.

Solution:

Let V be the current value of the stock after t week.

The exponential growth model is:

V=ab^t

Where, a is the initial value of stock, b is the weekly growth factor, t is the number of weeks.

Substituting a=100,b=1.5, we get

V=100(1.5)^t

Therefore, the required equation for the given situation is V=100(1.5)^t.
