Answer:

$$2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = the cost of one brownie, c = cost of one cookie

3b + 5c = 11

b+2c = 3.95

Times 3 on both sides on the second equation above to get the following:

3b + 6c = 11.85

3b+6c - (3b+5c) = 11.85-11

3b+6c-3b-5c = 0.85

c = 0.85

To find the value of b, use substitution:

b+2c = 3.95

b = 3.95-2c

= 3.95 - 2\times0.85

= 2.25

\therefore the cost of a brownie is $$2.25

Hope this helps :)

Gnesinka [82]

The correct two-way frequency table for the data is <u>Men </u><u>and </u><u>Women </u><u>Leisure Time Activity Preferences.</u>

<h3>What is a correct two-way frequency table?</h3>

A correct two-way frequency table displays frequencies for two categories (rows and columns) collected from categorical variables (men and women).

Men and Women Leisure Time Activity Preferences;

                Playing Sports     Dancing     Watching movies/TV   Row totals

Men                  11                         3                          6                          20

Women             5                       16                          9                          30

Column totals 16                       19                         15                          50

Hence, the correct two-way frequency table for the data is Men and Women Leisure Time Activity Preferences.

tester [92]
Set up a proportion.  take 3/6 = 20/x
Cross multiply 3 * x = 6 * 20
Simplify  3x = 120
Divide by 3  x = 40
So the denominator of the bottom fraction is 40
