Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of 1 scoop of ice cream. Since the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream are twice the price of 1 scoop of ice cream, therefore the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream = 2x

Jean buys 4 tubs with 2 scoops in them and 2 tubs with 1 scoop each. Therefore the money spent by Jean is:

Money spent by Jean = 4(2x) + 2(x) = 8x + 2x = 10x

Sarah buys 2 tubs of 2 scoops and 4 tubs of 1 scoop. The money spent by Sarah is:

Money spent by Sarah = 2(2x) + 4(x) = 4x + 4x = 8x

Sarah spends 2.50 € less than Jean. Therefore:

Money spent by Sarah = Money spent by Jean - 2.5

8x = 10x - 2.5

2x = 2.5

x = €1.25

Therefore the cost of 1 scoop of ice cream is €1.25, the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream is €2.50.

Money spent by Jean = 10x = 10(1.25) = €12.5

Money spent by Sarah = 8x = 8(1.25) = €10

30 POINTS!!!!! HELP QUICK<br> Find the area of the shaded region. <br><br> Use 3.14 for pi.
anygoal [31]

The area of the shaded region is 994.74 square in if the area of the circle is 1384.74 square in and the area of the triangle is 390 square in.

<h3>What is a circle?</h3>

It is described as a set of points, where each point is at the same distance from a fixed point (called the center of a circle)

As we know, the area of the circle is given by:

A = πr²

r = 21 in

A = 3.14(21)² = 1384.74 square in

Area of the triangle:

a = (39)(20)/2 = 390 square in

The area of the shaded region = 1384.74 - 390 = 994.74 square in

Thus, the area of the shaded region is 994.74 square in if the area of the circle is 1384.74 square in and the area of the triangle is 390 square in.
