Answers:
- Pizza Uno = $5.25
- Pizza Duo = $5.60
Those are the costs for a whole small pizza.
==========================================================
Explanation:
Let
- x = cost of whole small pizza from Pizza Uno
- y = cost of whole small pizza from Pizza Duo
x and y are some dollar amount, so they cannot be negative numbers. It also doesn't make sense to have them be 0 either. So we'll make them positive.
2/3 of x is equal to 3.50 as the first sentence mentions. This forms the equation (2/3)*x = 3.50
Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 to isolate x
(2/3)*x = 3.50
(3/2)*(2/3)*x = (3/2)*3.50
x = 5.25
Pizza Uno charges $5.25 for a whole small pizza.
----------------------------
Pizza Duo charges $4.20 for 3/4 of a small pizza, meaning the equation we need to solve is
(3/4)y = 4.20
We'll use the same idea as the last equation to get...
(3/4)y = 4.20
(4/3)*(3/4)y = (4/3)*4.20
y = 5.60
Pizza Duo charges $5.60 for a whole small pizza.
Pizza Uno is the better deal (assuming both pizzas taste the same or you don't have a preference for either). You would save $5.60 - $5.25 = $0.35 = 35 cents.
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do this two different ways. Both include picking two points where the line crosses a corner. I'm using (0,-1) and (4,2). Now here you can either use
Slope=
or 
If you use the first one start at point (0,-1) and go to point (4,2) and count how many it goes up (rise) and then put that over how many it goes to the right (run).
If you use the second one then plug in the numbers.
y2=second y point
y1=first y point
x2=second x point
x1=first x point
Now just solve.
