Answer:

x = 41/3

y = 199/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using system of equations

x is smaller number, y is larger

eq1> y + 2 = 5x > y = 5x - 2

eq2> 80 = x + y > y = 80 - x

equate

80 - x = 5x - 2

Solving:

x = 41/3

y = 199/3

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: 56-(7+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the amount of muffins left over by adding up the amount of muffins that were eaten and subtracting them from the original amount of blueberry muffins, so the answer is 56-(7+5).

(7+5 is in parentheses because if not, you would have 56-7+5 and get 54).

A restaurant sells burritos for $8.00 each. The cost of the meat is $1.50 and the cost of the other ingredients is $1.00 for eac
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Profit for 100 burritos: $550

Cost to make one burrito: $2.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If a restaurant sells burritos for $8, that's a positive 8 dollars they earned. Then, we need to find what the cost was to make the burrito. If the meat is 1.50 and the cost for all the other ingredients is 1 dollar, then they lose 2.50 for every 8 dollars they make (for each burrito). So, to find the profit in one burrito, we would add -2.5+8, giving us an answer of 5.5. So, they earn 5 dollars and 50 cents each burrito and lose $2.50.

Now, we need to find the profit of 100 burritos

If one burrito is $5.50 in profit, then we take that amount and multiply it by 100. This is to make the illitsratution of selling 100 burritos. So, 5.50*100 would be 550! They would make $550 for 100 burritos, and lose 250 dollars on all of the burrito ingredients.
