Answer:

Bill bought 2 hotdogs and 1 hamburger.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Bill spent $10 total, and a hotdog costs $3 while the hamburger costs $4, then find how many times 3 and 4 go into 10. 3 goes into ten 3 times, and 4 also goes into 10 3 times. but if it was 2 hamburgers and a hotdog, Bill would have spent $11. This is because 4+4=8 and if you add 3 you get 11. But if you do it the other way around, 3+3=6, and if you add 4 to 6 you get 10. Son your answer has to be 2 hotdogs and 1 hamburger, or, X=2 and Y=1.

Take off 3 of the pennies and the 5 that remain would be 3 nickels and 2 dimes

2 dimes=20 cents

3 nickels = 15 cents

3 pennies=3 cents

Or these 8 coins = 38 cents

Can anyone help me to understand how u add,subtract,multiply and divide fractions like explain how u do it using an example:) Pl
kotykmax [81]
Adding fractions:
Lets say you have two fractions like 1/2 and 1/3. To add them, you have to make the denominator the same. So we find the least common multiple of 2 and 3, which is 6, so we multiple 1/2 by 3/3 so we have 3/6 without changing the value, and we multiple 1/3  by 2/2 to have 2/6. Then we add the numerators and have 5/6.

Subtraction fractions:
Same thing as adding, just subtracting instead.
Both need to make sure you have the same denominator.

Multiplying fractions:
This is the most simple. All you do is multiply the numerators and the denominators. So if you have 5/6 and 3/4, you multiply the numerators to have 15, the denominators to have 24, and so you have 15/24, simplified to 5/8.

Dividing fractions:
If you have 5/6 divided by 3/4, you flip the 3/4 to 4/3, and you multiply that with 5/6.

Does the equation x2 - 10x + y2 - 6y = -30 intersect the x-axis?
Dmitriy789 [7]
Intersecting the x axis means y is 0
plug y=0 in the equation and solve for x to see if there are real solutions
x^2-10x+0+0=-30
x^2-10x+30=0
this cannot be factored, so let's see if b^2-4ac is bigger than 0
10^2-4*1*30=-20
so the solutions for this equation are not real numbers, therefore the answer is no.

Janice is thinking of two numbers. She says that two times the first number plus the second number is 47. In​ addition, the firs
Whitepunk [10]
Let the numbers be x and y, then
2x + y = 47 . . . (1)
x + 3y = 56 . . . (2)

(2) x 2 => 2x + 6y = 112 . . . (3)

(1) - (3) => -5y = -65 => y = -65/-5 = 13
From (2), x + 3(13) = 56 => x = 56 - 39 = 17

The two numbers are 13 and 17.
