Answer
Burger meal = $8 and Hot dog meal = $6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use "x" to represent burger meals and "y" to represent hot dog meals.
Garcia family:
3x + 4y = $48
Baker family:
6x + 2y = $60
We have to first compare both families' and then eliminate one of our common variables, either the "x" or "y".
3x + 4y = $48
6x + 2y = $60
Let's eliminate "x". To do this we can multiply "3x" by "-2" to get "-6x". This will cancel out "6x":
-2 (3x + 4y = $48) ...our new equation would be....
-6x - 8y = -$96
Now to add our two families' equations together...
-6x - 8y = -$96
+
6x + 2y = $60
=
- 6y = -$36
Divide both sides by "-6" to get "y" by itself.
y = $6
We now know the value of "y" <em>or </em>one hot dog meal. Next, we want to solve for "x", our variable for the hamburger meal... We will plug in our y value to help us...
3x + 4(6) = $48
3x + 24 = $48
We want to get our x by itself. First, we can subtract 24 from each side.
3x = $24
Then we will divided both sides by 3 to get x alone.
x = $8
To check our work we can plug in our values for both "x" and "y" to see if they add up to $48 and $60:
3(8) + 4(6) = $48
24 + 24 = $48
and...
6(8) + 2(6) = $60
48 + 12 = $60
Answer:
Plant A produced 15,000 panels.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let plant B produce x panels
Plant A then produced x - 2000 panels
2% of panels from plant A were defective
3% of panels from plant B were defective
The two plants together produced 810 defective panels so;
2/100(x - 2000) + 3/100(x) = 810
0.02x - 40 + 0.03x = 810
0.05x = 850
x = 17,000 panels
So plant B produced 17,000 panels
Plant A produced 17,000 - 2,000 panels = 15,000 panels.
Answer:
It is 3 hrs.
Step-by-step explanation:
because the ten dollars of initial fee takes off the 25 dollars, we have 15 left, and mike's bikes charges $5/hour, so 15/3+=5
Answer:
(2, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
A line that passes through the origin and has a slope of 1/2 can be best represented as y = 1/2x
it starts at the origin
goes 2 units to the right
1 unit above
2 units to the right + 1 unit above = (2, 1)
Final Answer: (2, 1)
Answer:
The answer is $1.70
Step-by-step explanation:
If 6 plums are $1.50 you would divide $1.50 by 6 to get the unit cost, $.25. Then you do the same thing for the apples. $3.00 divided by the 5 apples is $.60. Now you need to multiply both unit costs by 2 then add them together to get $1.70
(plums) $1.50 / 6 = .25
(apples) $3.00 / 5 = .60
(plums) .25 x 2 = .50
(apples) .60 x 2 = $1.20
$1.20 + .50 = $1.70
