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

Answer:

Area of a triangle = bh/2

Area of a rectangle = bh

The area of the triangles are the same, the area of the rectangles are the same.

triangle: 9x8/2

72/2 = 36

Rectangle: 8x14=112

There are 2 triangles and 3 rectangles so,

2(36)+3(112)

72+336= 408 in²
