Let x represent the cost of corn dogs. Let y represent the cost of pretzels.

2x+3y=13
5x+6y=28

Multiply the first equation by two so that we can eliminate y.

Subtract:
4x+6y=26
5x+6y=28

-x=-2
x=2

4(2)+6y=26
8+6y=26
6y=18
y=3

3 x 2 = 6
6+2=8

Therefore, 2 pretzels and a corn dog would cost $8.

Rewrite the expression below.<br><br> -2a( a + b - 5)+ 3 (-5a + 2b) +b (6a + b - 8)
Paul [167]

Answer:

b^2 + 4 a b - 2 b - 2 a^2 + -5 a

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

-2 a (a + b - 5) + 3 (2 b - 5 a) + b (6 a + b - 8)

-2 a (-5 + a + b) = 10 a - 2 a^2 - 2 a b:

10 a - 2 a^2 - 2 a b + 3 (2 b - 5 a) + b (6 a + b - 8)

3 (2 b - 5 a) = 6 b - 15 a:

10 a - 2 a^2 - 2 a b + 6 b - 15 a + b (6 a + b - 8)

b (-8 + 6 a + b) = -8 b + 6 a b + b^2:

10 a - 2 a^2 - 2 a b - 15 a + 6 b + -8 b + 6 a b + b^2

Grouping like terms, 10 a - 2 a^2 - 2 a b - 15 a + 6 b - 8 b + 6 a b + b^2 = b^2 + (6 a b - 2 a b) + (6 b - 8 b) - 2 a^2 + (10 a - 15 a):

b^2 + (6 a b - 2 a b) + (6 b - 8 b) - 2 a^2 + (10 a - 15 a)

a b 6 + a b (-2) = 4 a b:

b^2 + 4 a b + (6 b - 8 b) - 2 a^2 + (10 a - 15 a)

6 b - 8 b = -2 b:

b^2 + 4 a b + -2 b - 2 a^2 + (10 a - 15 a)

10 a - 15 a = -5 a:

Answer:  b^2 + 4 a b - 2 b - 2 a^2 + -5 a

ms rivera went to the store and spent $10.00 on apples. apples are on sale for $2.00 per pound. how many pounds did ms rivera bu
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

She bought 5 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

if she spent 10 dollars and its 2 dollars per pound that means that you have to divide 10 by 2 in order to get how many pounds you can buy for 10 dollars.

If you think about it if you want 2 pounds then you multiply 2 by 2 to get four because its 2 dollars per pound and you need 2 pounds. so since you don't know the number of pounds you fill in the blanks and do 10/2 to get 5.
