Answer:

they sold 210 hot chocolates and 85 coffees

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that they sold $200 worth of drinks

x will be the number of hot chocolates sold

y will be the number of coffees sold

This means that

.75x+.5y=200

We also know that they sold 295 total drinks which means that

x+y=295

This is a system of linear equations which I will solve through substitution

x+y=295

Subtract y from both sides and divide by -1 to get

-x+295=y

Plug y into the first equation and get

.75x+.5(-x+295)=200

Distribute the .5 and simplify to get

.75x-.5x+147.5

.25x+147.5=200

Subtract 147.5 and then divide by .25 to get our x value

x=210

Now we can go back and plug this in into our equation

210+y=295

Subtract 210 to get y

y=85

This means that they sold 210 hot chocolates and 85 coffees

How many extraneous solutions does the equation below have? StartFraction 9 Over n squared 1 EndFraction = StartFraction n 3 Ove
BigorU [14]

The equation has one extraneous solution which is n ≈ 2.38450287.

Given that,

The equation;

\dfrac{9}{n^2+1} =\dfrac{n+3}{4}

We have to find,

How many extraneous solutions does the equation?

According to the question,

An extraneous solution is a solution value of the variable in the equations, that is found by solving the given equation algebraically but it is not a solution of the given equation.

To solve the equation cross multiplication process is applied following all the steps given below.

\rm \dfrac{9}{n^2+1} =\dfrac{n+3}{4}\\\\9 (4) = (n+3) (n^2+1)\\\\36 = n(n^2+1) + 3 (n^2+1)\\\\36 = n^3+ n + 3n^2+3\\\\n^3+ n + 3n^2+3 - 36=0\\\\n^3+ 3n^2+n -33=0\\

The roots (zeros) are the  x  values where the graph intersects the x-axis. To find the roots (zeros), replace  y

with  0  and solve for  x. The graph of the equation is attached.

n  ≈  2.38450287

Hence, The equation has one extraneous solution which is n  ≈  2.38450287
