The cost of an order of spiced potatoes=$4.99
Equations needed
3x+2y =42.95
5x + 4y=74.91
Step-by-step explanation:
x = the cost of a chicken shawarma wrap
y = the cost of an order of spiced potatoes
Ms. Ironperson
3x+2y =42.95
Mr. Thoro
5x + 4y=74.91
3x+2y =42.95 (1)
5x + 4y=74.91 (2)
Multiply (1) by 2
6x + 4y=85.9 (3)
5x + 4y=74.91. (2)
Subtract (2) from (3)
6x - 5x= 85.9 - 74.91
x=$10.99
Substitute the value of x into (1)
3x+2y =42.95 (1)
3(10.99) + 2y =42.95
32.97 + 2y = 42.95
2y = 42.95 - 32.97
2y=9.98
Divide both sides by 2
y=9.98/2
=4.99
y=$4.99
Therefore,
The cost of a chicken shawarma wrap = $10.99
The cost of an order of spiced potatoes=$4.99
Answer:
The model car is 10 inches long
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we use conversion of units
Feet to inches.
Each feet has 12 inches.
The car is 15ft long.
So the car has 15*12 = 180 inches.
.5 inches = 9 in.
Rule of three
.5 inches - 9 inches
x inches - 180 inches
The model car is 10 inches long
Noah is right because 75% of 10 is 7.5 and 10% of 30 also equals 7.5
