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.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

year 2012 population = 2,254,000*3.5%

= 78.89

each year up to 2020

so 2020 - 2012 =8

78.89*8 = 631

total population at end of 2020 =2,254,000 + 631

A movie theater charges $15 for standard viewing, $20 for 3D viewing, and $35 for Dinner and a
Ludmilka [50]

The quantity of each type of seats sold are as follows:

  • Standard viewing = 2000

  • 3D seats = 800

  • Movie and a dinner seat = 200

According to the question,there are four times as many 3D, x seats as Dinner and a Movie, y seats.

That is, x = 4y

Also, total seats

= (x) + (y) + (z) = 3000...….............eqn(1)

Also, If the theater brings in $53,000 when tickets to all 3000 seats are sold.

  • 20x + 35y + 15z = 53000...........eqn(2)

By substituting 4y for x in equations 1 and 2; we have;

<em>5y + z = 3000</em>..…........eqn(3) and

<em>115y + 15z = 53000</em>.........eqn(4)

By solving equations 3 and 4 simultaneously; we have;

y = 200 and z = 2000

and since x = 4y

x = 800

The quantity of each type of seats sold is as follows:

  • Standard viewing = 2000

  • 3D seats = 800

  • Movie and a dinner seat = 200
