The cafeteria sold 41 corn chips and 80 potato chips.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Corn chips = x

Potato chips = y

Price of corn chips = $0.80

Price of potato chips = $0.60

According to given statement;

x+y= 121 Eqn 1

0.80x+0.60y=80.80 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 0.80

$0.80(x+y= 121)\\0.80x+0.80y=96.80\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

$(0.80x+0.80y)-(0.80x+0.60y)=96.80-80.80\\0.80x+0.80y-0.80x-0.60y=16\\0.20y=16$

Dividing both sides by 0.20

$\frac{0.20y}{0.20}=\frac{16}{0.20}\\y=80$

Putting y=80 in Eqn 1

$x+80=121\\x=121-80\\x=41$

The cafeteria sold 41 corn chips and 80 potato chips.

on Saturday Leo and his brother drove into town to visit their mom Leo is trying to remember how much he spent on gas and tolls

Gwar [14]

Let t be the number of tolls they crossed.

Amount they spent at each toll = $1.75.

Amount they spent at gas station = $28.

Let C be the total amount they spent on gas and tolls.

If they crossed 1 toll, then

C = 28 + 1.75(1).

If they crossed 3 tolls, then,

C = 28 + 1.75(3)

If they crossed t tolls, then,

C = 28 + 1.75t

Here, the terms are 28 and 1.75t and the factors are 1.75 and t.

The Floyds have considered three options to ensure they have at least $1,375 saved for their trip.

ANTONII [103]

I am guessing you are talking about Option 3. They start with $125. So they times it by 1.25 as we are using the multiplier method. So in the First month, it will be 156.25. Second it will be 195.3125. So in August it will be $476.837157. Of couse round it and you will get $476.84.

I believe there is a more efficent way of doing this but I have forgotten.

The table shows the function g(x) .

larisa86 [58]

According to the table shown, the function that best represents g (x) is the function g (x) = 2x. This can be shown with the values of the table because if x = -1 then g (-1) = - 2. If x = 0 then g (0) = 0. And if x = 1 then g (1) = 2.

While for f (x) we have:
x f (x)-1 -80 01 8

Then f (x) = 4g (x)

What is the difference between a ray and line segment line segment is a part of a line bound by multiple points along the line;

koban [17]

A line segment is a part of a line bound by two points; a ray is a line with one endpoint that extends to infinity in one direction. is the difference between a ray and line segment.

Option: C.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

A line is a set of multiple points that extends from one point to its opposite direction without any end. Ray and Line segments are the two parts that can occur in a line.

A ray is a line with an endpoint in which the line can be extended from that point to infinity in a direction. A line segment also another part line and it consists of two points. Moreover, The line is bounded between those points.
