Answer: Mr Smith bought 7 pepperoni pizza
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
cost of cheese pizza =$11
pepperoni pizza cost =$12.50
let number cheese pizza be represented as c
and number of pepperoni pizza be represented as p
such that the total number of pizza bought which equals 13 can be represented as
c+ p= 13
and total cost of both pizza can be expressed as
11c+ 12.50p =153.50
Step 2 Solving
c+ p= 13
11c+ 12.50p =153.50
By elimination method, Multiply equation 1 by 11 and subtract the new equation from equation 2
11c+ 12.50p =153.50
11c+ 11p=143.
1.5p =10.5
p= 10.5/ 1.5 =7
c+ p= 13
c= 13-p =13-7=6
Therefore Mr Smith bought 6 cheese pizza and 7 pepperoni pizza

Answer:
missing denominator: 5
missing numerator: 3
Step-by-step explanation:
You know the product of fractions is formed by multiplying numerators and multiplying denominators.
This gives rise to two equations:
3n = 9 ⇒ n = 3
4d = 20 ⇒ d = 5
The missing denominator is 5; the missing numerator is 3.

Answer:
maximum at (4, 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
y = - 1(x - 4)² + 9 is in this form
with vertex = (4, 9)
• If a > 1 then vertex is a minimum
• If a < 0 then vertex is a maximum
here a = - 1 , hence vertex (4, 9) is a maximum
