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

Katena32 [7]
2x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0..divide by 2
x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0
x^2 + 4x = 6...add 4 to both sides of the equation
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 6 + 4
(x + 2)^2 = 10....<== ur constant is 10
x + 2 = (+-)sqrt 10
x = -2 (+ - ) sqrt 10

x = -2 + sqrt 10
x = -2 - sqrt 10
