Jerry bought 5 candy bars for $14.75. if the king size candy bar cost $3.75 and a regular size candy bar cost $1.75, how much of

each candy bar did he buy?
one equation looks like:

3.75x+1.75y=14.75

Answer:

King size(x): 3

Regular size(y): 2

Steps:

System of Equations:

x+y = 5

3.75x+1.75y = 14.75

Multiply 3.75 on all sides.

3.75x+3.75y = 18.75

3.75x+1.75y = 14.75

Subtract top and bottom

            2y  = 4

            /2      /2

             y   =  2

After you know regular size amount, figure out king size ----3.

5-2 = 3.

Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s). A parabola is given by the equation y = x2 + 4x + 4.

(x – 0)2 = 4(y – 0)</span><span>This rearrangement "shows" that the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (0, 0)</span><span>. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line right through the vertex: </span><span>x = 0</span>. (I can always check my graph, if I'm not sure about this.) The focus is "p" units from the vertex.

(y + 5)2 = –1(x – 0)</span><span>This tells me that </span><span>4p = –1</span><span>, so </span><span>p = –1/4</span><span>.

y</span>2 + 6y + 9 – 15 = –12x + 9</span> <span>

(y + 3)2 = –12(x – 2)</span> <span>

Hello,

I have reply too quick in comments (sorry)

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}log_x (27)+log_y (4)=5\\log_x (27)-log_y (4)=1\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2*log_x (27)=6\\2*log_y (4)=4\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}log_x (27)=3\\log_y (4)=2\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x^{log_x (27)}=x^3\\y^{log_y (4)}=y^2\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}27=x^3\\4=y^2\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=3\\y=2\\\end{array}\right.\\\\
