Option C
Math teacher would need to buy 130 prizes
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Math teacher currently has 109 students and the box has 88 prizes in it
The math teacher likes to keep at least twice as many prizes in the box as she has students
So, she wants the number of prizes to be twice the number of students
Therefore,
number of prizes = 2 x 109 students
number of prizes = 2 x 109 = 218 prizes
The box has 88 prizes in it
Therefore, number of prizes she would need to buy is:
⇒ 218 - 88 = 130
Thus she would need to buy 130 prizes
Answer:
102
Step-by-step explanation:
X= cost per cherry pie
y= cost per pumpkin pie
NICOLE
1x + 9y= $60
LISA
11x + 4y= $90
STEP 1
multiply Nicole's equation by -11
-11(1x + 9y)= -11($60)
multiply -11 by all terms
(-11 * x) + (-11 * 9y)= (-11 * 60)
-11x - 99y= -660
STEP 2
add Nicole's new equation from step 1 to Lisa's equation to solve for y (using the elimination method)
-11x - 99y= -660
11x + 4y= 90
the x terms "cancel out"
-95y= -570
divide both sides by -95
y= $6 per pumpkin pie
STEP 3
substitute y value into either original equation to solve for x
x + 9y= $60
x + 9(6)= 60
x + 54= 60
subtract 54 from both sides
x= $6 per cherry pie
CHECK
11x + 4y= $90
11(6) + 4(6)= 90
66 + 24= 90
90= 90
ANSWER: Each cherry pie costs $6 and each pumpkin pie costs $6.
