If you’re asking for the cost of the drink, the drink would be $1. This is because 2 sandwiches would cost $10 and that means 1 sandwich would make it $5. If 2 sandwiches cost $10, the remaining $2 in the $12 dollars would be the drinks. 2 drinks for $2 would make 1 drink for $1. So the cost of 5 drinks is $5 or $1 per drink.
If confused, don’t be shy to ask :)
Using proportions, it is found that Ermias is traveling at a rate of 11 mph and Jeremiah at a rate of 19 mph.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Jeremiah travels 8 mph faster than Ermias, hence their velocities are:
x, x + 8
They travel in opposite directions, hence in one hour they are 2x + 8 apart.
In eight hours, the distance is 8(2x + 8), which is of 240 miles, hence:
8(2x +8) = 240
2x + 8 = 30
2x = 22
x = 11.
Then:
- x = 11 + 8 = 19 -> Jeremiah.

1+x you can not add them because they are not like terms
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 10x =65
13x = 65
/13 /13
------------------
x = 5
