A. x= 11/5
b. x= 6
c. x= -12/2
d. x= 6/5
Lets focus on what we know first. Natalie can pick 135 Berries in 15 minutes. Lets find out how many berries she can pick per minute.
In order to do so, We have to divide 135 by 15.
135/15=9
This means that Natalie can pick 9 berries per minute. Given that we want her to pick 486, we will need to divide that number by 9 berries to find out how many minutes it will take to get her to that number of berries.
486/9=54
This means that it will take Natalie 54 minutes in order to pick 486 berries.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Steak sandwich = x = 4
Cheese fries = y = 1.75
Taco salad = z = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Steak sandwich = x
Cheese fries = y
Taco salad = z
This week:
x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 - - - - (1)
Last week :
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - - (2)
Two weeks ago :
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
Taking (1) and (2)
x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 ___(1)
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 ___(2)
Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 1 and subtract
2x + 4y + 4z = 23
2x + 3y + z = 15.25
_______________
y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4)
Taking (2) and (3)
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - (2)
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 2 and subtract
2x + 3y + z = 15.25
2x + 8y + 2z = 26
______________
-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5)
Lets solve (4) and (5)
y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4) - - - multiply by 5
-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5) - - - multiply by 1
Then add the result :
5y + 15z = 38.75
-5y - z = - 10.75
____________
14z = 28
z = 28 / 14
z = 2
To find y ; put z = 2 in (4)
y + 3z = 7.75
y + 3(2) = 7.75
y + 6 = 7.75
y = 7.75 - 6
y = 1.75
From equation 3 ;
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
x + 4(1.75) + 2 = 13
x + 7 + 2 = 13
x + 9 = 13
x = 13 - 9
x = 4
Hence,
Steak sandwich = x = 4
Cheese fries = y = 1.75
Taco salad = z = 2
