Let the cherry pies be c and the pumpkin pies be p:
Shawna: c + 3p = 55
Amanda: 3c + 3p = 69
We want to find the cost of c + p. To do this, the easiest way is to divide the second equation by 3:
(3c + 3p)/3 = 69/3
c + p = 23
Therefore, 1 cherry pie & 1 pumpkin pie cost $23.

After substituting, what is the first step when evaluating 4y+9/7 when y=8
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

  multiply 4 and 8 to get 32

Step-by-step explanation:

After substituting, the expression is ...

  4·8 +9/7

The order of operations tells you to do multiplication and division before addition and subtraction. You do them left-to-right. The multiplication on the left is 4·8, so you do that first. The result is ...

  32 + 9/7

Now, you can do the division:

  32 + (1 2/7)

And, finally, the addition:

  33 2/7

___

Or, you could skip the division and go straight to adding a whole number and a fraction:

  (32·7 +9)/7 = (224+9)/7 = 233/7

elena55 [62]

Answer:

m = 2 and b = -8.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the most commonly used equations of straight lines is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Comparing the given y = 2x - 8 to y = mx + b, we see that m = 2 and b = -8.

Answer:

5.8com shorter

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the pythagoremy theorem to find the missing side length.

a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}\\5^{2} +3^{2} = c^{2}\\25+9= c^{2}\\34=c^{2} \\\sqrt{34} = {c}^{2}\\5.8cm
