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.

PLS HELP ME GUYS ITS MY LAST QUESTION IN GEOMETRY
aliina [53]

Answer:

Example = ( 12, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many possible solutions to this equation, and all you would have to do to determine the ordered pair, is satisfy the following criteria -

x - 6y = 6,\\- 6y = - x + 6,\\y = 1 / 6x - 1

Take a look at a graph of the line y = 1 / 6x - 1. Any ordered pair that lies on this line is a solution to the equation. The " criteria " is that the ordered pair must lie on this line. Let me give you an example, ( 12, 1 ).

<u><em>Hope that helps!</em></u>

What is the area of the triangle in the diagram?
Vladimir [108]

1/2sqrt((x_1^2+y_1^2)(x_2^2+y_2^2))

The area of a triangle is equal to 1/2bh (one half base times height). Since this is a right triangle, the base and height are the two legs connected to the 90* angle. To find the values of these sides, we will use Pythagorean Theorem, root a squared plus b squared.

Short leg: <x(1),y(1)>

This leg can be seen as the hypotenuse of an invisible right triangle. The x value, x(1), is how far over the x value has gone from the origon at x=0. Imagine a leg alone the x-axis, going from (0,0) to (x(1),0). The y value of the point, y(1), works the same way. This leg will go from our previous mark at (x(1),0) to the point (x(1),y(1)). This shows that the short leg of the main triangle is the hypotenuse, with a height of y(1) and base of x(1). Pythagoreum Theorem shows that the length of this leg is equal to sqrt(x_1^2+y_1^2).

Long leg: <x(2), y(2)>

The same process works here, giving us sqrt(x_2^2+y_2^2).

Now for the area, we have the b and h values. Our equation reads 1/2sqrt(x_1^2+y_1^2)sqrt(x_2^2+y_2^2).

But we can simplify this (yay). The two square roots can be written together as sqrt((x_1^2+y_1^2)(x_2^2+y_2^2))

So the correct answer is 1/2sqrt((x_1^2+y_1^2)(x_2^2+y_2^2))
