Answer:

Cost of each large soft drink is $3.00 and Cost of each Large bucket of popcorn is $4.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Cost of each large soft drink be x.

Also Let the Cost of each Large bucket of popcorn be y.

Number of people = 3

Money Spend on popcorn and soft drink = $22.50

Hence we can say that;

3x+3y=22.50 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1

Next week three people traveled again.

Each ticket was bought = $8.00

Number of tickets bought = 3

Money spend on tickets = 8\times3 = \$24

Total return trip = $37.50

Also they each get a large soft drink, but they share one large bucket of popcorn

Cost of Soft drink = 3x

Cost of popcorn = y

Now Total return trip is equal to sum of Money spend on tickets  and Cost of soft drink and Cost of popcorn.

Hence equation can be framed as;

24+3x+y=37.50\\3x+y=37.50-24\\3x+y = 13.50 \ \ \ \ eqaution \ 2

Now Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1 we get;

(3x+3y)-(3x+y)=22.50-13.50\\\\3x+3y-3x-y=9\\\\2y= 9\\\\y=\frac{9}{2}=\$4.50

Now substituting the value of y in equation 1 we get;

3x+3y=22.50\\\\3x+3\times4.50=22.50\\\\3x+13.50=22.50\\\\3x=22.50-13.50\\\\3x= 9\\\\x=\frac{9}{3}=\$3.00

Hence Cost of each large soft drink is $3.00 and Cost of each Large bucket of popcorn is $4.50.

Solve the equation -4 + 4a = 12 for a.
WARRIOR [948]

Hello there! The answer to your question is a = 4.

To solve for a in the equation -4 + 4a = 12 you want to isolate, or separate, a from all of the equation's other values.

Our first step is to add 4 to both sides so the 4 cancels out on the left side.

-4+4 + 4a = 12+4

4a = 16

Next, we divide both sides by 4 to finish isolating a.

4/4a = 16/4

a = 4

Want to verify that this is correct? Place the value we found for a (4) into the equation in place of a and if it comes out as a true statement, the answer is correct.

-4 + 4(4) = 12

-4 + 16 = 12

12 = 12

Since 12 is in fact equal to 12, i can guarantee you that i have provided you with the correct answer. I hope this helps & have a great rest of your day! :)

Answer:

D'G' = 52.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the dilatation is centred at the origin then multiply the original coordinates by the scale factor 3.5

D' = (1 × 3.5, 7 × 3.5 ) = (3.5, 24.5 )

G' = (- 8 × 3.5, - 5 × 3.5 ) = (- 28, - 17.5 )

Calculate D'G' using the distance formula

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2    }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = D' (3.5, 24.5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = G' (- 28, - 17.5)

D'G' = \sqrt{(-28-3.5)^2+(-17.5-24.5)^2}

       = \sqrt{(-31.5)^2+42^2}

       = \sqrt{992.25+1764}

        = \sqrt{2756.25}

         = 52.5 units
