Answer:

Let x = the unknown cost of a single hot dog and y = the unknown cost of a single soft drink. We have two unknowns so we need two equations to find them.

Equation 1 - 10 hot dogs and 5 soft drinks cost $35; that is 10x + 5y = 35

Equation 2 - 7 hot dogs and 4 soft drinks cost $25.25; that is 7x + 4y = 25.25

First let's re-write equation 1 to solve for y:

10x + 5y = 35

5y = 35 - 10x (subtract 10x from both sides)

y = 7 - 2x (divide both sides by 5)

Next, let's substitute 7 - 2x for y in equation 2:

7x + 4y = 25.25

7x + 4(7-2x) = 25.25

7x + 28 - 8x = 25.25

-x + 28 = 25.25

x - 28 = -25.25

Solve for x, the cost of a single hot dog. Once you have that, use y = 7 - 2x to find the cost of a single soft drink.

Whats the answer in these boxexs
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer: 17 nickels, 8 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given system of equations, we can use elimination method to find n or d. First, let's eliminate n. To do so, we need to make sure they are equal to each other. Then, we would have to multilpy the second equaiton by 0.05.

0.05N+0.1D=1.65

0.05N+0.05D=1.25

Now, we can subtract the 2 equations.

0.05D=0.4

D=8

Now that we know the number of dimes, we can plug it into any of the equations to find nickels.

N+8=25

N=17

There are 17 nickels and 8 dimes.

Is x^ 2 - 16 the difference between two squares? Why?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

x1= -4

x2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equation equal to zero

x2 − 16 = 0

then

(x + 4)(x − 4) = 0

(x+4)= 0 which is equal to -4

and

(x-4)= 0 equals 4

When the volume of a gas is
Fudgin [204]

Answer: The initial volume is 593.76mL

Step-by-step explanation:

As you do not say anithing about the pressure, i guess that the pressure remains constant.

If the gas is an ideal gas, we have:

P*V = n*R*T

where P is pressure, n is number of moles and R is a constant.

Now, initially we have:

P*Vi = n*R*315°C

finally we have:

P*825mL = n*R*452°C

Now we can take the quiotient of those two equations and get:

(P*Vi)/(P*852mL) = (n*R*315°C)/( n*R*452°C)

Now we have:

Vi/852mL = 315/452

Vi =  (315/452)*852mL = 593.76mL

So when we expand the gas at constant pressure, we increase the temperature.
