Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is c: 2..............
Let T = cost of a taco
Let S = cost of a salad
(2 tacos + 1 salad) + (8 % of 2 tacos and 1 salad) + 3 = 13.80
2T + S + .08(2T + S) + 3 = 13.80
2T + 2.5 + .08(2T + 2.5) + 3 = 13.80
2T + 2.5 + .16T + .20 + 3 = 13.80
2.16T + 5.7 = 13.80
2.16T = 8.10
T = 8.10/2.16 = $3.75
Check: 2T + S + .08(2T + S) + 3 = 13.80
2(3.75) + 2.50 + .08(2(3.75)+2.5) + 3 = 13.80
7.5 + 2.5 + .08(10) + 3 = 13.8
13.80 = 13.80
Answer checks as correct
Answer:
106 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
7th grade = 159 students
Boys to girls ratio:
2:1
Find two thirds of 159:
2/3*159 = 106 boys
159-106= 53 girls
Check:
53*2 = 106
There's only information to answer question C.
We can only know that 32 marbles were chosen. (yellow and black)
Why?
To answer the first two questions (a and b), we need to know the total number of marbles, so, we can only answer the last question (c).
We know that 7/10 of the 20 yellow marbles were chosen.
So, calculating we have:

Also, we know that 18 black marbles were chosen, so, the total of marbles chosen is equal to 32 (yellow marbles and black marbles)

Have a nice day!
