Garrett and Carter went to the movies last weekend. Together they bought 2 drinks and 2 popcorns. They spent a total of $12.50.

-BARSIC- [3]

The cost of one drink is $2.50 and cost of one popcorn is $3.75

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, the cost of one drink is $x$ dollar and cost of one popcorn is $y$ dollar.

Given that, total cost for 2 drinks and 2 popcorns is $12.50 and total cost for 6 drinks and 5 popcorns is $33.75

So, the system of equations will be......

$2x+2y=12.50 ..................................... (1)\\ \\ 6x+5y= 33.75 ..................................... (2)$

Multiplying equation (1) by -3 , we will get.....

$-3(2x+2y)=-3(12.50)\\ \\ -6x-6y=-37.50 ..................................... (3)$

Now, adding equation (2) and equation (3) , we will get ............

$5y-6y=33.75-37.50\\ \\ -y=-3.75\\ \\ y=3.75$

Plugging this $y=3.75$ into equation (1) ......

$2x+2(3.75)=12.50\\ \\ 2x+7.50=12.50\\ \\ 2x=12.50-7.50=5\\ \\ x=\frac{5}{2}=2.50$

So, the cost of one drink is $2.50 and cost of one popcorn is $3.75

The class is 60% women and 10% of the women have blond hair, so blond women comprise 60% × 10% = 6% of the class.

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Conversion and substitution

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to find out if the expression is true, we can convert all the percentages into their decimal equivalence.

60% = 0.6

10% = 0.1

6% = 0.06

Now let's substitute the values.

0.06 = 0.6 x 0.1

0.06 = 0.06

Since 0.06 is equal 0.06, this then proves that it is true.

Ella collects 50 bottles to recycle. Of the bottles she collects, 19 are plastic and the rest are glass.

nekit [7.7K]

QUESTION A

The total number of bottles Ella collected is
$50$

The number of bottles that are plastic is

$19$

The percentage of bottles that are plastic is

$= \frac{number \: of \: plastic \: bottles}{total \: number \: of \: bottes} \times 100\%$

$= \frac{19}{50} \times 100\%$

$= 19 \times 2\%$
$= 38\%$

Therefore 38% of the bottles are plastic.

QUESTION B

The total number of bottles that are glass is
$50 - 19 = 31$

The total number of bottles Ella collected is
$50$

The percentage of bottles that is glass is
$= \frac{number \: of \: glass \: bottles}{total \: number \: of \: bottles} \times 100\%$

$= \frac{31}{50} \times 100\%$

$= 31 \times 2\%$
$= 62\%$

Therefore 62% of the bottles are glass
