Answer:
<em>He bought 6 hotdogs and 2 drinks</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
Kevin and his children went into a restaurant and bought $31.50 worth of hotdogs and drinks. Each hotdog costs $4.50 and each drink costs $2.25.
To solve the system of equations, we'll call the variables:
x = number of hotdogs
y = number of drinks
The first condition yields the equation:
4.50x + 2.25y = 31.50 [1]
It's also known he bought 3 times as many hotdogs as drinks, thus:
x = 3y [2}
Substituting [2] in [1]:
4.50(3y) + 2.25y = 31.50
Operating:
13.5y + 2.25y = 31.50
15.75y = 31.50
y = 31.50/15.75
y = 2
And
x = 3*2 = 6
He bought 6 hotdogs and 2 drinks
2(5y - 2) = 12 + 6y
7y - 4 = 12 + 6y ⇒ wrong, it has to be: 10y - 4 = 12 + 6y
so the correct answer is B
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
since EG bisects angle DEF
31 = x + 15
31 - 15 = x
x = 16 degree
6x - 4 = 56
6x = 56 + 4
x = 60/6
x = 10
Answer: Original salary = $500
Step-by-step explanation: Tricia got a 6% raise on her weekly salary. The
raise was $30 per week.
Let x be the original salary
x times the raise percentage = raise amount
6%= 6/100=0.06, raise amount = 30
Now we solve for x
Divide by 0.06 on both sides
Original salary = $500
