Answer:

The price per serving is $0.315, therefore, it's less than $0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the price per serving, we can first calculate the price per cup, this is done by dividing the total value of the box by the number of cups it can serve:

price_{cup} = \frac{3.8}{9} = 0.42

Since each serving is \frac{3}{4} of a cup, then it's price has the same proportion and is given by:

price_{serving} = \frac{3}{4}*0.42 = 0.315

The price per serving is $0.315, therefore, it's less than $0.5

QUESTION 1

The given system of equations is

3d - e = 7...eqn(1)
d + e = 5...eqn(2)

To solve by linear combination, we add equation (1) to equation (2) to get,

3d  + d= 7 + 5


4d = 12


We divide through by 4 to obtain,


d =  \frac{12}{4}


d = 3


We put d=3 into equation (2) to get,



3+ e = 5


e = 5 - 3


e = 2


\boxed {The \: solution \: is  \: (3, 2)}



QUESTION 2


The given system is

4x + y = 5 ...eqn(1)

3x + y = 3 ...eqn(2)


To solve by linear combination, we subtract equation (2) from equation (1) to eliminate y from the equation.

This will give us,

4x - 3x = 5 - 3



This implies that,

x = 2


Put x=3 into equation (1) to get,

4(2) + y = 5

8+ y = 5


y = 5 - 8



y =  - 3

The solution is

(2,-3)



QUESTION 3

We want to solve the system;


a – 2b = –2 ....eqn(1)


2a + 2b = 14...eqn(2)

by linear combination.


We need to add equation (1) to equation (2) to eliminate b.


This implies that,

2a + a = 14 +  - 2




Simplify,

3a = 12



Divide both sides by 3 to get,


a = 4
Put a=4 into equation (2) to obtain,



2(4) + 2b = 14


8 + 2b = 14
2b = 14 - 8


2b = 6


b = 3


The ordered pair in the form (a, b) is

(4,3)



QUESTION 4

The given system of equations is


11x + 4y = 18 ...eqn(1)

3x + 4y = 2 ...eqn(2)


We subtract equation (2) from equation (1) to get,


11x - 3x = 18 - 2


8x = 16


x = 2


Put x=2 into equation (2) to obtain,


3(2) + 4y = 2


This implies that,


6 + 4y = 2


4y = 2 - 6


4y =  - 4


y=-1

The correct answer is (2,-1).




QUESTION 5

The given system is ;

2d + e = 8...eqn1

d – e = 4...eqn2


We add the two equations to eliminate e.


This implies that,

2d + d = 8 + 4


3d = 12



We divide both sides by 3 to get,


d = 4


We put d=4 into equation (2) to get,

4 - e = 4

- e = 4 - 4



- e = 0



e = 0


The solution is

(4,0)
