Answer:

Hence candy = $0.55 and soda= $0.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Travis bought 6 candy bars and 2 sodas for $4.88

6x+2y= 4.88------------1

Beth bought 2 candy bars and 3 sodas for $3.47

2x+3y= 3.47----------2

solve 1 and 2

6x+2y= 4.88------------1x 3

2x+3y= 3.47----------2 X 2

 18x+6y=14.64

- 4x+6y= 6.94

14x=7.7

divide both sides by 14

x= 7.7/14

x=$0.55

put x= 0.55 in 1

6(0.55)+2y= 4.88------------1

3.3+2y= 4.88

3.3y= 4.88-3.3

3.3y=1.58

y=1.58/3.3

y=$0.48

A car is moving with a velocity (3.0 m/s) x̂ + (1.0 m/s) ŷ and 3.0 seconds later its velocity is (6.0 m/s) x̂ - (3.0 m/s) ŷ. Wha
Mars2501 [29]

Here we know that the initial velocity of the car is given by:

V_i=(3.0\hat x+1.0\hat y)m/s

And the final velocity of the car is given by:

V_f=(6.0\hat x-3.0\hat y)m/s

It took 3 seconds to attain the final velocity, so we have t=3 s

Therefore, the acceleration can be obtained by:

V_f-V_i=a\times t

a=\frac{V_f-V_i}{t}

Plugging the values of the initial, final velocity and the time, we get:

a= \frac{(6\hat x-3\hat y)-(3 \hat x+1 \hat y)}{3} =\frac{6\hat x-3 \hat y -3 \hat x-1 \hat y}{3} =\frac{3 \hat x-4 \hat y}{3}

So the acceleration of the car is given by:

a=\frac{3 \hat x}{3} -\frac{4 \hat y}{3} =1 \hat x- \frac{4}{3} \hat y

Now we need to find the direction of the average acceleration of the car:

\theta=tan^{-1} \frac{y}{x}

Here, x and y are the coefficients of the 'x' and 'y' components of the vector:

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{-\frac{4}{3} }{1} )=tan^{-1}(\frac{-4}{3}) =-53.13^\circ

Therefore, the direction of the average acceleration of the car is -53.13^\circ.
