Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Taco supreme is 1230 calories

Pan pizza is 1310 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote taco supreme as T and pan pizza az P. We have:

T+2*P = 3850 and 2*T + P = 3770

If we add the equations we get 3*T+3*P = 7620

3*(T+P) = 7620

T+P = 2540 => we can use T=2540-P

Back to one of the first equations we get 2540-P+2*P=3850

P=3850-2540= 1310

=>T= 2540-1310= 1230

Find the midpoint of the segment having endpoints (0 ,1/8) and (-4/5 ,0)

kvasek [131]

Answer:

Mid point of the given end points = $(\frac{-2}{5},\frac{1}{16} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the end points of the line segment are :

(0, $\frac{1}{8}$ ) & ( $\frac{-4}{5}$ ,0)

We will use the mid point formula when two points are: (x₁,y₁) & (x₂,y₂)

mid point = $(\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} }{2},\frac{y_{1} +y_{2} }{2} )$

now put the value of x₁ = 0

x₂ = $\frac{-4}{5}$

y₁ = $\frac{1}{8}$

y₂ = 0

mid point = $(\frac{0-\frac{4}{5} }{2},\frac{\frac{1}{8}+0 }{2})$

= $(\frac{-2}{5},\frac{1}{16} )$

That's the final answer.
