Answer: The cost of a chicken wrap is $10.99

The cost of one order of potatoes is $4.99.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a chicken wrap be x

Let the cost of one order of potatoes be y.

From the question,

3x + 2y = $42.95 ...... equation i

5x + 4y = $74.91 ....... equation ii

Multiply equation i by 5

Multiply equation ii by 3

15x + 10y = $214.75 ..... equation iii

15x + 12y = $224.73 ....... equation iv

Subtract equation iv from equation iii. This will be:

-2y = -$9.98

y = $9.98/2

y = $4.99

Since 3x + 2y = $42.95

3x + 2($4.99) = $42.95

3x + $9.98 = $42.95

3x = $42.95 - $9.98

3x = $32.97

x = $32.97/3

x = $10.99

The cost of a chicken wrap is $10.99

The cost of one order of potatoes is $4.99.

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP! I need to know the 3 equations to solve for the different types of points. ​
kiruha [24]

Answer:

f = 0

x > 2y

x ≤ 8

S ≥ 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'f' represent the number of free throws.

Let 'x' represent the number of 2 - point baskets.

Let 'y' represent the number of 3 - point baskets.

Let S represent the Season high.

1) Ryan says he did not shoot any free throws.

⇒ f = 0

2) 2 - point baskets more than twice the number of 3 - point baskets.

⇒ x > 2y

3) Number of two points is less than or equal to 8.

⇒ x ≤ 8.

4) Last Season high, he had scored 18 points. Note that the problem says, Ryan equaled or bettered than last season high. That means he should got at least 18 points this season. So, the equation would be:

S ≥ 18
