2a+1b=27.50

4a+2b=59.50

Multiply first equation by -4 and the second by 2 so you can drop off the a values then add the equations together.  Then solve for b.  You should get b=6.

Then plug b into one of the original equations and solve for a and you should get 10.75

So a plate of spaghetti is $10.75 and a salad is $6.

Explain the connection between factors of a polynomial, zeros of a polynomial function, and solutions of a polynomial equation.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solutions, zeros, and roots of a polynomial are all the same exact thing and can be used interchangeably.  When you factor a polynomial, you solve for x which are the solutions of the polynomial.  Since, when you factor a polynomial, you do so by setting the polynomial equal to 0, by definition of x-intercept, you are finding the zeros (don't forget that x-intercepts exist where y is equal to 0). There's the correlation between zeros and solutions.  

Since factoring and distributing "undo" each other (or are opposites), if you factor to find the zeros, you can distribute them back out to get back to the polynomial you started with.  Each zero or solution is the x value when y = 0.  For example, if a solution to a polynomial is x = 3, since that is a zero of the polynomial, we can set that statement equal to 0: x - 3 = 0.  What we have then is a binomial factor of the polynomial in the form (x - 3).  These binomial factors found from the solutions/zeros of the polynomial FOIL out to give you back the polynomial equation.

How can you distinguish if the solution is one value, all real numbers, or no solutions?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

If x can only have one answer, then the solution is one value. If x can be all real numbers, then the solution is all real numbers. And if x doesn't have an answer then it has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

One value: 7 + x= 10 => x= 3

All real numbers: 0x=0 => x can be all real numbers

No solutions: 7x=6x => no solutions

Evaluate.<br> 1/2 (11)(15 + 17) =
Andrei [34K]

Answer: 176

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the equation we have to remove the parentheses and add 15 + 17...

1/2 (11)(15 + 17) =

= 11 * 32 * 1/2

Now, we have to turn it into a fraction and multiply it...

\frac{1*11*32 }{2}

= \frac{352}{2}

352 ÷ 2 = 176

I hope this helps!
