Answer:

the cost each of one cherry pie and one lemon meringue pie is 9 and $12 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the cost of one cherry pie and the lemon meringue pie is shown below:

Let us assume the cherry pie be x

And, the lemon meringue pie be y

So according to the question

x + 5y = $69

5x + 7y = $129

Now multiply by 5 in the equation 1

5x + 25y = $345

5x + 7y = $129

18y = $216

y = $12

And, x would be

x + 5($12) = $69

x = $9

Hence, the cost each of one cherry pie and one lemon meringue pie is 9 and $12 respectively

Hey guys can you answer this one question real quick
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

a. 1/5

b. (3, 3/5)

c. 1/5x = y

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember: (x, y)

0.5 = 1/2

(1/2, 1/10) = 1/10 ÷ 1/2 = 1/10 • 2 = 1/5, you can divide y/x = constant of proportionality. 1/10 ÷ 1/2.

1 2/5 = 7/5

(7, 7/5) = 7/5 ÷ 7 = 7/5 • 1/7 = 1/5, y/x = constant of proportionality. 7/5 ÷ 7.

  • a. 1/5 is the constant of proportionality
  • b. (3, 3/5) because 3/5 ÷ 3 or 3/5 • 1/3 = 1/5.
  • c. 1/5x = y

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The population of 75 hours from now would be 40,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for this is because your initial number is 10,000 and when 25 hours pass by, your population would be 20,000. Another 25 hours pass by, and then your population would be 40,000. If you multiply 25 by 3, you will notice 75 hours have just passed, so your answer would be 40,000.
