Answer:

chef salads = $2

turkey sandwiches = $1

Step-by-step explanation:

two equations can be derived from the question

13t + 69c = 151 eqn 1

61t + 41c = 143 eqn 2

t = turkey sandwiches

c = chef salads

multiply equation 1 by 61 and equation 2 by 13

793t + 4209c = 9211 eqn 3

793t + 533c = 1859 eqn 4

subtract equation 4 from 3

7352 = 3676c

c =2

substitute for c in equation 1

13t + 69(2) = 151

13t + 138 = 151

13t = 151 - 138

13t = 13

t = 1

The equation of a line given two points needs to be found. Samuel claims that slope-intercept form will generate the equation an
masha68 [24]

<span>Helena is correct in saying that the point-slope form will generate the equation. The point-slope form is written as:</span>

<span>
</span>

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁), where,

m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) is the slope of the line

(x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) are the coordinates of the two points


On the other hand, the slope-intercept form is written as:


y = mx + b, where,

m is the slope of the line

b is the y-intercept


In this case, since only two points were given, the y-intercept of the line is not readily known. Thus, it is only through the point-slope form that the equation of the line can be determined. This is because it only requires the substitution of the x and y-coordinates of the points in the equation.

Solve the equation<br> 4.8y-6.9=3.18<br> Explain your thinking
Alex777 [14]
4.8y - 6.9 = 3.18 
4.8y= 3.18 + 6.9 (I added 6.9 to both sides)
4.8 y = 10.08 (I added 3.18 by 6.9)
y = 2.1 (I divided 4.8)

Hope this helps!!

All the choices are correct.

_____
In our base-10 number system, moving a digit one place to the left multiplies its value by 10. Moving it one place to the right multiplies its value by 1/10.

You know already that 1,000 has 10 times the value of 100, and 1/10 the value of 10,000.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST. please help
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

x = 11.4 m

y = 21 m

man's shadow =  9.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

measure of third angle must be 50 degrees (180 - (40 + 90))

you can take tan50° = 15/y and 'y' will equal approx. 21

to find 'x' you can take tan21° = (21-x) /25 and 21 - x = 25 · tan21°

21 - x = 9.6

-x = -11.4

x = 11.4

man's shadow is the difference of 21 and 11.4, which is 9.6
