Answer:

The price of the burrito is $3.5 and the price of the taco is $2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5y=19.5

5x+2y=22.5

------------------

5(2x+5y)=5(19.5)

-2(5x+2y)=-2(22.5)

-----------------------------

10x+25y=97.5

-10x-4y=-45

-----------------------

21y=52.5

y=52.5/21=2.5

2x+5(2.5)=19.5

2x+12.5=19.5

2x=19.5-12.5

2x=7

x=7/2=3.5

x=3.5, y=2.5

The price of the burrito is $3.5 and the price of the taco is $2.5.

7: In the rhombus, m∠1=10x, m∠2=x + y, and m∠3= 5z. Find the values of x, y, and z.
malfutka [58]
Angles 1, 2, and 3 are all 90°.

10x = 90
.. x = 9

x +y = 90
.. y = 81

5z = 90
.. z = 18

The values of (x, y, z) are (9, 81, 18).

H(t)=(t+3)
Anarel [89]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = (t + 3)² + 5, -5 ≤ t ≤ -1

The average rate of change is the change in h over the change in t.

(h(-1) − h(-5)) / (-1 − (-5))

= ((-1 + 3)² + 5 − ((-5 + 3)² + 5)) / (-1 + 5)

= (4 + 5 − 4 − 5)) / 4

= 0
