The way she has the equation set up, she is only selling 1 bottle of tea and x bottles of water. So, she basically forgot to put the variable in that represents the number of bottles of tea sold

the way it should be : x = # of bottles of water, and y = # of bottles of tea
1.25x + 1.49y = 100

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Barbara sells iced tea for $1.49 per bottle and water for $1.25 per bottle.

She wrote an equation to find the number of drinks she need to sell to earn $100 as

1.25x + 1.49 = 100

In this equation Barbara has assumed the number of water bottle sold as x but she hasn't assumed another variable for the bottles sold of iced tea,

Therefore, Barbara should take two variables one for the number of bottles sold of water and another for the bottles sold of iced tea.

Equation should be in the form of

1.25x + 1.49y = 100

What is the perimeter of RSTUV?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

this should be 132 units   i hope this helps!   :)

Step-by-step explanation:

so these figures are similar

we are given 3 side measurements on one, and 3 on the other

we know that side BA is 10 units, and that SR which is the same side, is 14 units

we can conclude that they added 4 units to this side

so with the other side lengths that we are given we can figure out what the length of the perimeter of RSTUV is

10 + 4 = 14

15 + 4 = 19

28 - 4 = 24  

42 - 4 = 38

25 + 4 = 29

42 TU

28 UV

19 VR

14 SR

29 ST

add all the side together to get 132 units
