Drinks, x, and popcorn, y.
38.75 = 5x+2y
37.25 = 3x + 4y
Let's solve this using the elimination method
subtract the 2nd row from the first
<span>7x=40.2<span>5
divide both sides by 7 to isolate x
</span></span><span>x=5.7<span>5

Substitute x into an equation
</span></span><span><span>10(5.75)+4y=77.5
multiply
</span></span>57.5+4y=77.<span>5
subtract 57.5 from both sides
</span>4y=77.5−57.<span>5
Simplify
</span>4y=2<span>0
divide both sides by 4 to isolate y
y = 5

To check you would plug x and y into the equations and see if it equals properly...

The price of drinks is $5.75, the price of popcorn is $5.

Hope this helps

Write an equation for the translation of x ^ 2 + y ^ 2 = 25 by 6 units left and 3 units down.
Aliun [14]
The equation would be: (x + 6)^2 + (y + 3)^2 = 25

This equation will produce a circle. If you add the numbers inside the parenthesis to be squared, you can center of the circle. Thus, translating the shape.

Find the missing length the triangles are similar.
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing length is 13 because,

Lets say the top triangle is A and the bottom triangle is B.

Triangle A gives us the side GF, and Triangle B gives us the sides TU and ST. Since the triangles are similar(as stated in the problem), we can pair 2 sides GF(A) and TU(B) which is 11:22.(one way I usually figure which sides are similar is by first- matching the hypotenuse, then checking which of the remaining two is longer.. if that made any sense). You can see that their relationship is x2 or /2 (In another word, from A to B is multiplication- ex: 11 * 2 is 22, and from B to A is division- ex 22/2 is 11.) Since the missing number is the hypotenuse of triangle A and you know the Hypotenuse of triangle B all you have to do is divide side TS by 2 to get side SF. So the missing side is 13.

Answer: 13
