Answer:

  • drink: $1.35
  • sandwich: $4.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d and s represent the cost of a drink and a sandwich, respectively. The two purchases give rise to the equations ...

  3d +5s = 25.05

  4d +2s = 13.80

Dividing the second equation by 2 gives ...

  2d + s = 6.90

Subtracting the first equation from 5 times this, we get ...

  5(2d +s) -(3d +5s) = 5(6.90) -25.05

  7d = 34.50 -25.05 = 9.45

  d = 1.35

The cost of each drink is $1.35.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Using the simplified 2nd equation, we can find the cost of a sandwich.

  s = 6.90 -2d = 6.90 -2.70 = 4.20

The cost of each sandwich is $4.20.

What is 4^2y-3^2=-5y+(-5+7)<br> Please explain step by step i need this asap :/
dybincka [34]

y = 11/21

To solve this first evaluate the power (then calculate the sum):

<u><em>4^{2}</em></u>y - <u><em>3^{2}</em></u> = 5y +<u><em> (-5 + 7)</em></u>

16y - 9 = -5y + 2


Next Move terms (move variable to the left side and change its sign) (Move constant to the right side and change its sign):

16y <u><em>- 9 </em></u>= <u><em>-5y</em></u> + 2

16y + 5y = 2 + 9


Next Collect the like terms and calculate the sum:

<u><em>16y + 5y</em></u> = <u><em>2 + 9</em></u>

21y = 11


Lastly divide both sides of the equation by 21:

<u><em>21y = 11</em></u>

y = \frac{11}{21}
