Let the cost of one cup of hot chocolate be = x
Let the cost of one cup of hot tea be = y
Paul paid $ 25.50 for 3 cups of hot chocolate and 4 cups of tea.
Equation becomes =
...(1)
As given, the cost of each cup of tea was 2/3 the cost of each cup of hot chocolate.
.... (2)
Putting the value of y from (2) in (1)

=
=
=
x=4.5

=
y =3
Hence each cup of hot chocolate is $4.50
Each cup of tea is $3.
I'm not sure what your variables are, but I will try task 3 with you.
y=$500(in billions)
x= the number of years that have passed since 2009
percentage of decrease: 1 - % =
so your formula will look like this: y(1 - %)^x
I can figure out this is a frefall motion.
Starting from rest => Vo = 0
Then, use the equation: d = [1/2]gt^2 => t = √(2d/g)
d = width of a black/clear stripe pair = 5cm = 0.05m
g ≈ 10 m/s^2 (the real value is about 9.81 m/s^2)
t =√(2*0.05m/10m/s^2) = 0.1 s
Answer: approximately 0.1 s
Happy New Year from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
Proof by ASA congruence postulate. See below
Discussion:
Fact 1 : angle A = angle T (given)
Fact 2: The angles on both sides of point X are equal as vertical angles
are equal.
From these facts it follows that angle M = angle H (as all plane triangles have 180 degrees). Also AM = TH (given) so
In the left triangle In the right triangle
(angle M, side AM, angle A) = (angle H, side TH, angle T)
Hence the triangles have two congruent angles, and congruent sides included between the angles, so they are congruent by ASA.
Thank you,

<u>Answer:</u>
- 6. 6.75
- 7. 27
- 8. 92/17
- 9. 49
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<u>- Question 6 -</u>
- 9/16 = x/12
- => 16x = 12 x 9
- => 16x = 108
- => x = 6.75
Hence, <u>the value of x in this proportion is 6.75.</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 7 -</u>
- -3 + x/18 = 12/9
- => -3/18 + x/18 = 4/3
- => x/18 = 4/3 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 8/6 + 1/6
- => x/18 = 9/6
- => x = 9/6 x 18
- => x = 27
Hence, <u>the value of x is 27</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 8 -</u>
17/15 = 10/2x - 2
=> 17(2x - 2) = 150
=> 34x - 34 = 150
=> 34x = 184
=> x = 184/34
=> x = 92/17
Hence, <u>the value of x is 92/17</u>
<h3>_______________________________</h3>
<u>- Question 9 -</u>
- x - 16/x + 6 = 3/5
- => 5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6)
- => 5x - 80 = 3x + 18
- => 2x = 98
- => x = 49
Hence, <u>the value of x is 49.</u>
