Let's use these variables to organize the problem
x = price of a pizza
y = price of a large drink
Here's what the problem looks like:
x + 3y = 16.95The price of 1 pizza and the price of 3 large drinks add up to $16.95.

We know from the question that the price of 1 pizza is $12.00, in other words:
x = 12

So now we have the following:
12 + 3y = 16.95

Then to find the price of 1 large drink, solve for y, which represented the price of 1 large drink.

12 + 3y = 16.95
-12          -12
------------------------
3y = 4.95
---     ----
 3       3

y = 1.65

So, the price of one large drink is $1.65 which is letter (c).

The equation y = 26.2x represents the number of miles y Conrad runs in x marathons. Determine if there is a constant of variatio
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Yes, there is a constant of variation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see, we have a linear equation that is as follows:

<em>y = 26.2 * x. </em>

The first thing is to say that there is a constant of variation and it is the constant number of the equation, that is 26.2. And second to mention that it is the reason (or quantity, whether proportional or direct) for which the input data (i.e. x) and the output data (i.e. y) vary.

Stacy bought a skateboard at a local sporting goods store. The skateboard was on sale for 10% off the original price. The store
yarga [219]
If the original price is x, then x-0.10x=0.9x (which is a 10 percent off discount - 10 percent = 0.10 if you move the decimal spot 2 places over), then 10% of 0.9x is not 0.10x due to that 0.1/0.9=1/9, not 1/10. 1/10 of 0.9 is 0.09, so
 0.9-0.09=0.81 of the original price

If the 10% sales tax was added first, it wouldn't matter since you're still getting 10% twice either way
