We are given with three values and is asked in the problem to determine the sum of the three values. Using a calculator, the significant figures should be equal to 5, the answer is equal to 99.318. One can also use manual addition to verify the answer
Answer:
Each hot dog = $3
Each french fry = $2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, lets define our variables:
x = Hotdog
y = fries
Next, you need to set up a cost equation for both Toby and Bernie:
8x + 5y = 34
2x + 6y = 18
Now, we need to isolate one of the variable:
2x + 6y = 18
2x = 18 - 6y
x = 9 - 3y
Next, we need to insert this equation back into the first equation (8x+5y = 34) to find the cost of y (fries):
8x +5y = 34
8 (9-3y) + 5y = 34
72 - 24y + 5y = 34
72 - 19y = 34
19y = 38
y or fries = $2
Finally, we need to find the cost of each hotdog by using the cost of fries ($2) in one of the formulas:
2x + 6y = 18
2x + 6(2) = 18
2x + 12 = 18
2x = 6
x or hotdog = $3
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Rate of Decay = 8%
Step-by-step explanation:
The decay formula is:
Where F is the final value (here, it is given as "Y")
P is the initial value (here, given as 20,000)
r is the rate of decay (what we need to find)
t is the time (given as 2)
Comparing both the equations:
We see that:
1 - r =0.92
We solve for "r":
1 - 0.92 = r
0.08 = r
The rate of decay is 0.08, as a percentage, we need to multiply by 100, so we have:
0.08 * 100 = 8%
Rate of Decay = 8%
