Answer: the bill for a hamburger is $0.7
the bill for a salad is $1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the bill for a hamburger.
Let y represent the bill for a salad.
The bill for five hamburgers and four salads is $9.50. This means that
5x + 4y = 9.5- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
The bill for four hamburgers and five salads is $10.30. This means that
4x + 5y = 10.3 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 5, it becomes
20x + 16y = 38
20x + 25y = 51.5
Subtracting, it becomes
- 9y = - 13.5
y = - 13.5/ - 9
y = 1.5
Substituting y = 1.5 into equation 1, it becomes
5x + 4(1.5) = 9.5
5x + 6 = 9.5
5x = 9.5 - 6 = 3.5
x = 3.5/5 = 0.7
Given that GI = 53, and
• GH = 3x - 11
• HI = 2x + 4
We can establish the following equality statement to solve for x:
GH + HI = GI
3x - 11 + 2x + 4 = 53
Combine like terms:
5x - 7 = 53
Add 7 to both sides:
5x - 7 + 7 = 53 + 7
5x = 60
Divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:
5x/5 = 60/5
x = 12
Substitute the value of x into the equality statement to verify if it is the correct value for x:
GH + HI = GI
3x - 11 + 2x + 4 = 53
3(12) - 11 + 2(12) + 4 = 53
36 - 11 + 24 + 4 = 53
53 = 53 (True statement. Thus, x = 12 is the correct value).
Therefore:
GH = 3x - 11
GH = 3(12) - 11
GH = 25
HI = 2x + 4
HI = 2(12) + 4
HI = 28

z and 100 are on the same line so the total is 180
180-100=z
80=z
