Answer:

x + y = 20

x - y = 4

Add the 2 equations and get

2x = 24

x = 24/2 = 12

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

7 (7.07106781187)

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is find the diameter of the rectangle from two farthest corners. To do this, use the Pythagorean Theorem

(5^2) + (5^2) = c^2

25 + 25 = c^2

50 = c^2

7 ≈ c

Your class raised money by selling hot dogs and hamburgers. Hot dogs were sold for $.50 (fifty cents), and hamburgers were sold
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Number of hot dogs sold =  56

Number of  hamburgers sold = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of hot dogs sold = x

Number of  hamburgers sold = y

We can make equation from given equations:

0.50x+1y=80 (Hot dogs were sold for $.50 (fifty cents), and hamburgers were sold for $1 (one dollar). The total money raised by your class was $80. )

x+y=108  (Together you sold 108 hot dogs and hamburgers.)

Now we cam solve these system of equations to find value of x and y

0.50x+y=80--eq(1)\\x+y=108--eq(2)

Subtract both equations to get value of x:

0.50x+y=80\\x\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: + y=108\\-\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: -\:\:\:\:\:\: -\\---------\\-0.5x=-28\\x=\frac{-28}{-0.5}\\x=56

We get value of x = 56

Now putting value of x in equation 2 to find value of y

x+y=108\\56+y=108\\y=108-56\\y=52

So, we get y = 52

Therefore,

Number of hot dogs sold = x = 56

Number of  hamburgers sold = y = 52
