Mathematics

Answer:  The  cost for each chocolate gift basket is b)$25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the correct equations are:

6x + 5y =300

3x + 7y = 285

So, if we multiply the second equation by 2, and subtract the first equation to the second equation:

6x +14 y= 570

-

6x +5y =300

_________

9y = 270

Solving for y:

y = 270/9

y = 30

Substituting y=30 on any equation:

6x + 5y =300

6x + 5(30) =300

Solving for x (cost for each chocolate gift basket)

6x+150 =300

6x =300-150

6x = 150

x =150/6

x = $25

Sever21 [200]
1 day = 24 hours 
58 days = (24)(58) = 1392 hours 
60 mins = 1 hour 
30 mins = 30/60 hour = 1/2 hour 
Total hours Keurig takes to complete a full rotation = 1392 + 15 + 1/2 = 1407(1/2) hours.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

30 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

22 1/2 = 45/2 since 22*2+1 = 45, then divide that by 3/4 which, in reality, means multiply by 4/3. I then cross-multiplied by finding the GCF of the diagonal pairs. I hope this helped! Please mark Brainliest if it did.
