Answer:
cost of nachos = $3.45
Cost of tacos = $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = cost of nachos
y = cost of tacos
11x + 18y = 64.95 (1)
6x + 15y = 43.20 (2)
Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 11 to eliminate x
66x + 108y = 389.70
66x + 165y = 475.20
Subtract to eliminate x
165y - 108y = 475.20 - 389.70
57y = 85.50
y = 85.50/57
y = 1.5
Substitute y = 1.5 to find x
11x + 18y = 64.95 (1)
11x + 18(1.5) = 64.95
11x + 27 = 64.95
11x = 64.95 - 27
11x = 37.95
x = 37.95/11
x = 3.45
cost of nachos = $3.45
Cost of tacos = $1.5
Well technically this problem is wrong, as two sides are the same on a rectangle on each side.
7 < 2m - 23
add 23 to both sides
30 < 2m
divide both sides by 2
15 < m
same as m > 15
To factor the trinomial, you can use the ac method where you multiply the first and last terms together (6 and 9) and add up to 15.
In this case ac= 54
2 numbers that multiply to 54 and add up to 15 would be 6 and 9 so place these numbers where the 15 would be:

Then group terms to simplify:

Simplify any like terms:

And group together again:

You can simplify a 3 out of the first expression one more time to get:

Which would be the factored form. I hope this helps :)
