Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Let each turkey sandwich cost x, and the fixed delivery fee be y.

From the first situation, 4x + y = 33

From the second case with 8 sandwiches, 8x + y = 61

Subtracting the first equation from the second gives 4x = 28

x = 7

Substituting this back into the first equation gives y = 5.

Therefore, each turkey sandwich costs $7 and the delivery fee is $5.

If you were to have 12 turkey sandwiches delivered, the cost would be 12x + y = 12*7 + 5 = $89, so this would be more than $85.


If you want to do it graphically, convert both equations into slope-intercept form.

y = -4x + 33 and y = -8x + 61

For the first equation, the y-intercept is (0,33) and the x-intercept is (33/4, 0).

For the second equation, the y-intercept is (0,61) and the x-intercept is (61/8, 0).

Connect the intercepts for each equation, then find the point of intersection. The x- and y-coordinates of the point of intersection are x = 7 and y = 5, which are the values that will solve the equations.

Solve<br> 3/ x-2 - 2/ x+3 =1<br> Leave your answer in surd form.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3/(x-2) - 2/(x+3) = 1....multiply everything by (x-2)(x+3)

3/(x-2) * (x-2)(x+3) - 2/(x+3) * (x-2)(x+3) = 1(x-2)(x+3)

3(x+3) - 2(x-2) = 1(x-2)(x+3)

3x + 9 -2x + 4 = (x-2)(x+3)

x + 13 = x^2 + x - 6

x^2 - x + x - 6 - 13 = 0

x^2 - 19 = 0

x^2 = 19....take sq rt of both sides

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt 19

x = sqrt 19 and x = - sqrt 19 <====

What is the value of X? Please help!!!!
Tom [10]
The value of x would be 45 because it is an equivalent triangle so the opposite side would be the same as the other side. ^-^ hope this helps.
