Answer:

The cost of each ice cream cone is $4.50

The cost of each ice cream basket is $3.75

The cost of each donut is $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the cost of the ice cream cone

y----> the cost of the ice cream basket

z---> the cost of the donut

we know that

2x+y=12.75 ------> y=12.75-2x ------> equation A

x+2z=7.50 ------> z=(7.50-x)/2 -----> equation B

x+y+z=9.75 ----> equation C

substitute equation A and equation B in equation C and solve for x

x+(12.75-2x)+((7.50-x)/2)=9.75

Multiply by 2 both sides

2x+25.50-4x+7.50-x=19.50

3x=25.50+7.5-19.50

3x=13.5

x=$4.50

Find the value of y

y=12.75-2(4.50)=$3.75

Find the value of z

z=(7.50-4.50)/2=$1.50

therefore

The cost of each ice cream cone is $4.50

The cost of each ice cream basket is $3.75

The cost of each donut is $1.50

Mr.kelly pays $12,564 a year for rent. His rent is a constant amount each month. Which equation represents the amount he pays he
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

1047 m = c

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mr.kelly pays $12,564 a year for rent. His rent is a constant amount each month.

To Find:Which equation represents the amount he pays her month if m=months and c=total rent paid for the year?

Solution :

Since he pays for a year (12 months) =  $12,564

Since  His rent is a constant amount each month.

He pays for one month = \frac{12564}{12}=1047

Thus the amount he pays per month $1047

If he pays for m months then the total amount(c) of rent for m months

⇒1047 m = c

Hence equation represents the amount he pays her month if m=months and c=total rent paid for the year: 1047 m = c

The legs of an isosceles triangle have lengths x + 1 and -x + 7 . The base has length 3x - 3. What is the length of the base?
In-s [12.5K]
Since you've told us that this is an isosceles triangle, we know that the 'legs' have equal length.  So we can write

                                                      x + 1 = -x + 7

Add 'x' to each side:                  2x + 1 =       7

Subtract  1  from each side:      2x       =       6

Divide each side by  2 :                x      =       3

Now, if the length of the base is   3x - 3 ,
that length is

                                   3(3) - 3  =  6  .

Of the songs in ivan's music library, 4/5 are rock songs. of the rock songs, 3/4 feature a guitar solo. what fraction of the son
BigorU [14]

In this case this "of" means we will multiply the two fractions "4/5 × 3/4" exists 3/5.

<h3>What are fractions?</h3>

That operation exists utilized to 'simplify' a fraction (reduce it to lower terms).

When there exists no number that goes into both the top and bottom numbers, then the fraction is in simplest form (lowest terms).

We are looking for 4/5 of 3/4. In this case this "of" means we will multiply the two fractions. To multiply fractions, we multiply

top × top and bottom × bottom

4/5 × 3/4 exists 4 × 3 on top and 5 × 4 on the bottom.

= (4 × 3)/(5 × 4)

= 12 / 20

= 3 / 5

Therefore, the correct answer is 3/5.
