Answer:

1 cupcake = $3.75

1 ice-cream = $4.50

1 doughnut = $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

2 ice-cream + 1 cup cake = $12.75 ------------ [ 1 ]

1 ice-cream + 2 doughnuts = $7.50 ------------ [ 2 ]

1 cup cake + 1 doughnut + 1 ice-cream = $9.75 ------------ [ 3 ]

From [ 1 ] :

2 ice-cream + 1 cup cake = $12.75

1 cupcake = $12.75 - 2 ice-cream

Substitute [ 1 ] into [ 3 ]:

1 cup cake + 1 doughnut + 1 ice-cream = $9.75

$12.75 - 2 ice-cream + 1 doughnut + 1 ice-cream = $9.75

1 doughnut - 1 ice-cream = -$3 ------------ [ 4 ]

[ 2 ] + [ 4 ] :

3 doughnuts = $4.75

1 doughnut = $1.50

Substitute (1 doughnut = $1.50) into [ 2] :

1 ice-cream + 2 doughnuts = $7.50

1 ice-cream + 2 x $1.50 = $7.50

1 ice-cream + $3 = $7.50

1 ice-cream = $4.50

Substitute (1 ice-cream = $4.50) into [ 1 ]:

2 ice-cream + 1 cup cake = $12.75

2 x $4.50 + 1 cup cake = $12.75

1 cupcake = $12.75 - $9

1 cupcake = $3.75

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

$\text{Lateral surface area of container}=270\text{ cm}^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that a container is shaped like a triangle prism. Each base of container is an equilateral triangle with each side 6 cm. The height of container is 15 cm.

To find the lateral surface area of our given container we will use lateral surface area formula of triangular prism.

$\text{Lateral surface area of triangular prism}=(a+b+c)*h$ , where, a, b and c represent base sides of prism and h represents height of the prism.

Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,

$\text{Lateral surface area of container}=(\text{6 cm+ 6 cm+6 cm})*\text{15 cm}$

$\text{Lateral surface area of container}=\text{18 cm}*\text{15 cm}$

$\text{Lateral surface area of container}=270\text{ cm}^2$

Therefore, lateral surface area of our given container is 270 square cm.

If f(x) = 4(3x - 5), find f-1(x)

deff fn [24]

Answer:

$f^{-1}(x) = \frac{1}{12}(x+20)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: f(x) = 4(3x - 5)

Is required to find f⁻¹(x)

f(x) = y = 4(3x - 5)

∴ y = 4 * 3x - 4 * 5

∴ y = 12x - 20 ⇒ add 20 to both sides

∴ y + 20 = 12x ⇒ divide both sides by 12

∴ $\frac{1}{12} (y+20) = x$

Replace the places of x and y.

∴ $y=\frac{1}{12} (x+20)$

∴ $f^{-1}(x) = \frac{1}{12}(x+20)$

B. Find the equation of the line through (-3, 3) with slope 4.

yarga [219]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

use the formula y=mx+b. the first number in the parenthesis is -3 so that is x. 3 is y and the slope is m

so it is 3=4(-3)+b
