Answer:

Pizza = 12.35

Chips = 2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Pizza = x

chips = y

3x + 4y = 48.05 - - - (1)

5x + 2y = 67.25 - - - (2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 3

15x + 20y = 240.25

15x + 6y = 201.75

Subtract :

20y - 6y = 240.25 - 201.75

14y = 38.50

y = 38.50/ 14

y = 2.75

Put y = 2.75 in (1)

3x + 4(2.75) = 48.05

3x + 11 = 48.05

3x = 48.05 - 11

3x = 37.05

x = 37.05 / 3

x = 12.35

Pizza = 12.35

Chips = 2.75

How much did it cost summer to to buy 2.6 pounds of granola at the old price

coldgirl [10]

It was $6.00 per pound. So 2 pounds would be $12. But there is still that .6 of a pound left. If we know 1 pound costs $6, then we know 1/10th of a pound will cost $0.60. So 6 x .60 = 3.60. Add 12 and 3.60, and you get 15.60 for 2.6 pounds of granola at the old price.

Ron's recycle shop had an old paper-shredding machine. Business was good, so he bought a new paper-shredding machine. The old ma

Answer: 1 hour 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The old machine could shred a truckload of paper in 4 hours.

Rate of work done by old machine = $\dfrac{1}{4}$

The new machine could shred the same truckload in 2 hours.

Rate of work done by new machine = $\dfrac{1}{2}$

Let 't' be the time taken by both of them working together , then we have the following equation:-

$\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{1+2}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{1}{t}=\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{4}{3}=1\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{ hours}$

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

Then, $\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{ hours}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times60=20\text{ minutes}$

Hence, it will take 1 hour 20 minutes to shred the same truckload of paper if Ron runs both shredders at the same time.

∠E and ∠F are vertical angles with m∠E=9x+12 and m∠F=3x+24. What is the value of x?

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are equal as per definition.

∠E and ∠F are vertical angles
m∠E = 9x+12 and m∠F = 3x+24
x = ?

Solution

9x+12 = 3x+24
9x - 3x = 24 - 12
6x = 12
x = 2
