Answer:

L Pie - $7.50

B Pie - $4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create equations with the given things:

1.  Two lemon meringue pies cost $3 less than four blueberry pies.

2L - $3 = 4B

2. Three lemon meringue pies cost #9 more than three blueberry pies.

3L = $9+3B

3. Let's solve these 2 equations

1. -3(-4B+2L=-3)

2. 2(-3B+3L=9)

3. Adding these 2 equations:  

12B-6L = 9 ----(1)

-6B+6L= 18 ----(2)

(1) + (2) => 6B=27

B=$4.50

4. 2L = 4(4.50) - 3

L= $7.50

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. (2/z)x^2 + (3/z)y^2 is an equation for an ellipse, so the answeris A.

2. We can rewrite this as x^2 + y^2 = 25 - z^2. This is theequation for a circle, so the level curves are circles. However,they are unevenly spaced, because the radius of each circle issqrt(25-z^2). So the answer is F.

3. Rewriting, we have y = z/x. This is the equation of a hyperbola(except when z = 0). So the answer is B.

4. Rewriting, we have x^2 + y^2 = z^2. This is the equation for acircle of radius z, so the level curves are evenly spaced circles.The answer is C.

5. Solving for x, we have x = 1 + 1/z. These level curves arevertical lines, which are obviously parallel. However, they areunequally spaced, since the distance between them gets smaller as zgets larger. The answer is E.

6. x^2 + y^2 = z is the equation for a circle of radius sqrt(z).They are unevenly spaced once again, because the radii do notincrease linearly with z. The answer is F.

7. Solving for y gives: y = (-2/3)x + z/3. This is the equation fora line of slope -2/3 with y-intercept z/3. These are parallelbecause they all have the same slope, and evenly-spaced becauseeach time we increase z by 1 the y-intercept moves up by 1/3. Theanswer is D.

Matt sold 12 cherry and 14 strawberry cheesecakes for a total of $214. Joe sold 6 cherry and 11 strawberry cheesecakes for a tot
Tanzania [10]
Let c=cost of cherry and s=cost of strawberry cheesecakes.
12c+14s=214
6c+11s=151.
So 12c+22s=302 subtract 12c+14s=214:
8s=88, so s=$11 and 6c=151-11s=151-121=$30.
The cost of one cherry cheesecake is $30 and of one strawberry is $11.
The cost of the sum of both is $41.
