Answer: 20 large drinks and 40 small drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

L= number of large drinks while S = number of small drinks

Cost of L = $5, while Cost of S = $3

Total number of drinks sold is 60 = $220

Equations:

L + S = 60 .........equation 1

5L + 3S = 220 ..........equation 2

S = 60 - L

Substitute S = 60 - L into equation 2

5L + 3 (60 - L) = 220

5L + 180 - 3L = 220

Combine like terms:

5L - 3L = 220 - 180

2L = 40

Divide both sides by 2:

L = 20 Large drinks

Substitute the value of L into equation 1

20 + S = 60

S = 60 - 20

S = 40 small drinks

Thus, there are 20 large drinks and 40 small drinks.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of L = $5

Cost of S = $3

No. of drinks sold = 60 drinks

Total sale = $220

Solution:

L + S = 60 - (1) (multiplying by 3)

5L + 3S = 220 - (2)

(-)3L +(-) 3S = (-)180 - (1)

2L = 40

L = 40 / 2

L = 20 Large drinks

20 + S = 60

S = 60 - 20

S = 40 small drinks

Therefore, 20 large drinks and 40 small drinks

I don't understand this question?...
olganol [36]

Answer: 60°

Step-by-step explanation: this is because angles 1 and 3 are the same, so if line y is moved 5 degrees to the right (clockwise), then it expands angles 1 and 3, so you add 5° to the already known 55°. Hope I helped!

netineya [11]

Answer:

15.5x - 300 >= 280

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of hours she works.

The amount of money she earns will be 15.50x

Her rent costs $300, so that value gets subtracted from the amount she earns. That makes our expression for how much money she earns:

15.5x - 300

This amount has to be over 280, so our inequality will be:

15.5x - 300 >= 280
