Answer:
There are 3 adults in the family.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations 8x + 4y = 32 and 16x + 12y = 72 represent the cost of lunch and dinner for a family in which x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.
We have to find the number of adults or the value of x by solving these equations.
equations are 8x + 4y = 32 -------(1)
16x + 12y = 72 --------(2)
Now we will multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract it by equation 2.
(16x + 12y) -3(8x + 4y) = 72 - 96
16x + 12y - 24x - 12y = -24
(16x - 24x) + (12y - 12y) = -24
-8x = - 24
8x = 24
x = 3
Therefore, there are 3 adults in the family.
Answer:
Both of these examples are wrong. You cannot add/subtract integers and square roots together, however, you could add square roots together if they have the same number under the square root. For example, 2 - 2√6 will stay as 2 - 2√6 because they aren't like terms. 25 + 5√5 + 5√5 + 5 = 30 + 10√5 because 25 + 5 = 30 and 5√5 + 5√5 = 10√5. We can add 5√5 and 5√5 together because they have the same number under the square root. If we were to compute √2 + √3, we would just leave it as is because they don't have the same number under the square root.

We know that
<span>Peter has already delivered </span><span> 2 pizzas in 5 minutes
so
1 hour-------> 60 minutes
</span><span>time left------> 60 minutes - 5 minutes--------> 55 minutes
</span>pizzas to deliver to beat his previous record----------> 20-2------> 18 pizzas
therefore
in the next 55 minutes
if the
<span>average per minute = (18/55) pizzas /minute
</span>Pete beat his previous record
<span>
</span>average per minute > (18/55) pizzas /minute
Pete overcome the previous record
average per minute < (18/55) pizzas /minute
Pete will not match the previous record
Answer:
For two night in the hotel, you would pay $333 (including tax)
Step-by-step explanation:
Without tax, the price for 2 nights would be $150 times 2. So the price without tax would be....
$150 x 2 = $300
But then we have to be aware of 11% tax so we would multiply the price for two nights by 1.11 and get...
$300 x 1.11 = $333
