Answer:

The number of regular, large, and extra-large drinks are 12, 15, and 10 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost for regular coffee drinks (300 ml)=$2.25

The cost for large coffee drinks (500 ml)=$3.25

The cost for extra large coffee drinks (800 ml)=$5.75

Let p,q, and r be the number of regular, large, and extra-large coffee sold.

As the diner sold a total of 37 coffees, so

p+q+r=37

r=37-p-q...(i)

The volume of p regular coffee = 300p ml

The volume of q  large coffee = 500q ml

The volume of r extra-large coffee = 800r ml

As the total volume of coffee sold was 19,100mi, so

300p+500q+800r=19100

By using equation (i)

300p+500q+800(37-p-q)=19100

300p+500q+800 x 37 - 800p - 800q=19100

-500p-300q=19100-29600

500p+300q=10500

500p=10500-300q

p=21-0.6q...(ii)

Now, the cost of p regular coffee=$2.25p

The cost of q large coffee=$3.25q

The cost of r extra-large coffee=$5.75r

As the amount of money made in coffee sales was $133.25, so

2.25p+3.25q+5.75r=133.25

By using equations (1)  we have

2.25p+3.25q+5.75(37-p-q)=133.25

2.25p+3.25q+212.75-5.75p-5.75q=133.25

3.50p+2.50q=79.5

From equation (ii)

3.5(21-0.6q)+2.50q=79.5

73.5-2.1q+2.5q=79.5

0.4q=79.5-73.5=6

q=6/0.4

q=15

From equation (ii)

p=21-0.6(15)

p=12

From equation (i)

r= 37-12-15

r=10

Hence, the number of regular, large, and extra-large drinks are 12, 15, and 10 respectively.

Answer:

figure skates will be $1 cheaper.

Explanation:

<u>given equation</u>:

  • to rent figure skates : f(x) = 1.50x + 2
  • to rent hockey skates : h(x) = 2x +1.5

<u>solve for rent of figure skates</u>:

f(x) = 1.50x + 2.00

f(3) = 1.50(3) + 2.00

f(3) = 6.5

<u>solve for rent of hockey skates</u>:

h(x) = 2x + 1.5

h(3) = 2(3) +1.5

h(3) = 7.5

<u>cheaper - figure skates than hockey skates</u>:

$7.5 - $6.5

$1

One difference between an assembly line process flow and a continuous process flow is that on the assembly line the flow is disc
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Assemble line is a production process in which parts are joined to the products produced as a partially finished product.

Here the process flow is discreet that is assembled one at a time.

Continous process flow is a type of manufacturing products without disruption of the flow process.

As the name implies,it is continous.

The measure of Angle d is 150°. What is the value of Measure of angle b + measure of angle c + measure of angle e?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

\angle b + \angle c + \angle e = 120^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\angle d = 150

See attachment for illustration

Required

Find \angle b + \angle c + \angle e =

The sum of\ angles\ at a point is 360^\circ

So:

\angle a + \angle b + \angle c + \angle d + \angle e = 360^\circ

Angle a is at right angled.

So:

90 + \angle b + \angle c + 150 + \angle e = 360^\circ

Collect like terms

\angle b + \angle c + \angle e = 360^\circ -150^\circ - 90^\circ

\angle b + \angle c + \angle e = 120^\circ
