Brianna's thinking is incorrect.
Expessions A, and C. are equivalent.
For C, you add 5x and x together (because they have the same variable) to get 6x - 4.
For A, you subtract 9x and 3x (because they have the same variable) to get 6x- 4.
6. The answer is 208
8. The answer is 285
Answer:
(4, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this with graphing all you need to do is enter both equations in a graphing calculator (you can use desmos online) and then find the point where both lines intersect.
Think of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is Parenthesis, Exponets, Multiplication, Division, Add, and Subtract. We don't have any Parenthesis, we don't have any Exponets, we do have multiplication: 34•8. I think it's A. 34•8
Let, cost of 1 hot dog and 1 drink is x and y respectively.
Carl bought 4 hot dogs and 6 drinks and paid $23.80.
4x + 6y = 23.80 ....1)
Susan purchased 4 hot dogs and 2 drinks and was charged $15.40.
4x + 2y = 15.40 ....2)
Subtracting equation 2 by 1, we get :
(4x + 6y) - (4x + 2y) = 23.80 - 15.40
4y = 8.4
y = $2.1
4x + 6×2.1 = 23.80
4x = 23.80 - 12.2
4x = 11.6
x = 2.9
Therefore, the cost of 1 hot dog and what is the cost of 1 drink is $2.9 and $2.1 respectively.
Hence, this is the required solution.
