The answer is A) 2/3 ^ 4 power
Answer:
$2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "b" be the price of 1 brownie and "c" the price of 1 cookie.
At a bake sale, a student spent $11.00 buying 3 brownies and 5 cookies. Symbolicaly,
3 b + 5 c = 11.00 [1]
His friend spent $3.95 buying 1 brownie and 2 cookies. Symbolicaly,
1 b + 2 c = 3.95
b = 3.95 - 2c [2]
If we replace [2] in [1], we get
3 (3.95 - 2c) + 5 c = 11.00
11.85 - 6c + 5c = 11.00
c = 0.85
If we replace c = 0.85 in [2], we get
b = 3.95 - 2 (0.85) = 2.25
Well in my calculations I got: well if you he increases the speed by 2.6 per hour soo 4+2.6=6.6
The mean can be found by adding the two numbers and dividing by 2
let the second number be y
(x + y)/2 = 1/2x + 1
solve for y
multiply each side by 2
x + y = 2(1/2x + 1)
distribute
x + y = x + 2
subtract x on both sides
y = 2
ANSWER: the second number is 2
