Anne, Barry, and Cathy enter a coffee shop. Anne orders two coffees, one juice, and two doughnuts and pays $7.50. Barry orders o
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Coffee = $2.00

Juice = $1.50

Doughnut = $1.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let:

c = coffee\\ j= juice\\ d = doughnut

So, we have:

Anna

2c + j + 2d = 7.50

Barry

c + 3d = 5.00

Cathy

3c + j + 4d = 11.50

Required

The price of each

We have:

2c + j + 2d = 7.50

c + 3d = 5.00

3c + j + 4d = 11.50

Make c the subject in: c + 3d = 5.00

c = 5.00 - 3d

Substitute c = 5.00 - 3d in 2c + j + 2d = 7.50 and 3c + j + 4d = 11.50

2c + j + 2d = 7.50

2[5.00 - 3d] + j + 2d = 7.50

10.00 - 6d+ j + 2d = 7.50

Make j the subject

j = 7.50 - 10.0 +6d - 2d

j = -2.50 +4d

3c + j + 4d = 11.50

3[5.00 - 3d] + j + 4d = 11.50

15.00 - 9d + j + 4d = 11.50

Make j the subject

j = 11.50 - 15.00 + 9d -4d

j = -3.50 + 5d

So, we have:

j = -3.50 + 5d and j = -2.50 +4d

Equate both values of  j

-3.50 + 5d = -2.50 + 4d

Collect like terms

5d - 4d = 3.50 -2.50

d = 1.00

Substitute d = 1.00 in j = -3.50 + 5d

j = -3.50 + 5d

j = -3.50 + 5 * 1.00

j = -3.50 + 5.00

j = 1.50

To solve for c, we substitute d = 1.00 in c + 3d = 5.00

c + 3 * 1.00 =5.00

c + 3.00 =5.00

Solve for c

c =- 3.00 +5.00

c =2.00

A taxi is charging you $1.50 per 500 meters. If you know your destination is 7.1 miles away, how much will the taxi cost you? Th
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

$34.27

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we should make everything the same value, so convert the 7.1 miles into meters. (11,423.9 meters). Since we are trying to find a value <em>per</em> 500 meters, divide the 11,423.9 meters by 500 to get 22.8478. Multiply this number by $1.50 to get the value 34.2717 and since we are rounding to the cent, that would be $34.27
