Answer:

D.$3.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent

12-ounce cup = x

16-ounce cup = y

A customer orders a round of coffee for her friends.

If she orders two 12-ounce cups and one 16-ounce cup, she will owe the coffee shop $10.75.

Hence:

2x + y = 10.75.....Equation 1

y = 10.75 - 2x

If she orders one 12-ounce cup and two 16-ounce cups, she will owe the coffee shop $11.30.

Hence:

x + 2y = 11.30.....Equation 2

We substitute 10.75 -2x for y in Equation 2

x + 2(10.75 - 2x) = 11.30

x + 21.50 - 4x = 11.30

Collect like terms

x - 4x = 11.30 - 21.50

-3x = -10.20

x = -10.20/-3

x = $3.40

Solving for y

y = 10.75 - 2x

y = 10.75 - 2($3.40)

y = 10.75 - 6.8

y = $3.95

Therefore , 16-ounce cup is represented by y, the cost for a 16-ounce cup of coffee is $3.95

Option D is correct

When adding √9 and -7, which type of number is the sum?
dezoksy [38]

We are given numbers √9 and -7.

Square root 9 is a perfect square.

Square root 9 = 3.

So, if we add square root 9 and -7, we would get

√9 + -7 = 3 -7 = -4.

So, we got a negative whole number.

<em>A negative or positive whole number is called an integer</em>.

So, it's an integer.

<h3>Therefore, correct option is D. Integer.</h3>

How many distinct products can be formed using two different integers from the given set: {–6, –5, –4, –3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
zhannawk [14.2K]

Number of distinct products that can be formed is 144

<h3>Permutation</h3>

Since we need to multiply two different integers to be selected from the set which contains a total of 12 integers. This is a permutation problem since we require distinct integers.

Now, for the first integer to be selected for the product, since we have 12 integers, it is to be arranged in 1 way. So, the permutation is ¹²P₁ = 12

For the second integer, we also have 12 integers to choose from to be arranged in 1 way. So, the permutation is ¹²P₁  = 12.

<h3>Number of distinct products</h3>

So, the number of distinct products that can be formed from these two integers are ¹²P₁ × ¹²P₁ = 12 × 12 = 144

So, the number of distinct products that can be formed is 144

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of One-half and passes through point (2, –3)?y = one-half x minus 4 y = one-hal
swat32

Answer: y = one-half x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

So the options are in y=mx+b aka slope intercept form, so since the slope is 1/2, and passes through (2,-3) the equation will be y=1/2x+2. So the answer is y = one-half x + 2. Some things to remember is that b=y-intercept, and m=slope.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED and wonderful day! :-)
