*here is step by step*
(Remember to add the 'x' to the slope)
-4x+6y=16
6y=4x+16
y= 4/6x + 2.66
The complete answer is:
y= 2/3x + 2.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent the number of mochas bought with the variable
, and the number of lattes bought with the variable
.
Since there are
students, the total number of mochas and lattes bought must be
. This can be represented with the following equation:

We can also set up another equation based on the total amount spent on the coffe:

If we rearrange the first equation, we can solve for
:

If we substitute this into the second equation, we can solve for
:





Subtituting this back into the original equation, we can solve for
:



Therefore, 9 mochas and 14 lattes were bought.
Answer:
PR = 5 because LP + PR = LR according to the Segment Addition Postulate, and 7 + 5 = 12 using substitution
Step-by-step explanation:
The naming of the segments suggests that point P is between L and R, so that ...
LP + PR = LR
This corresponds to the last choice.
_____
<em>Comments on the alternate interpretation</em>
On the other hand, if point L is between P and R, then the segments are PL and LR. The Segment Addition Postulate would tell you that ...
PL + LR = PR
The Reflexive Property of Congruence would tell you that PL = LP. The Substitution Property would tell you LP can be substituted into this equation, making it ...
LP + LR = PR
and by the commutative property, ...
LR + LP = PR.
Multiple properties of addition and congruence are involved with this interpretation, which more or less matches the third choice. That is, the simple explanation of answer choice 3, by itself, is insufficient to explain why the length of PR should be considered to be 19, not 5.
