a.
b=cost per burrioto
t=cost per taco
b.
3 burritos and 4 tacos costs 11.33; 3b+4t=11.33
9 burritos and 4 tacos costs 22.07; 9b+4t=22.07
c. solve
3b+4t=11.33
9b+4t=22.07
mulitply irst equation by -1 and add to 2nd to cancel t's
-3b-4t=-11.33
<u>9b+4t=22.07 +</u>
6b+0t=10.74
6b=10.74
divide both sides by 6
b=1.79
subsitute back
3b+4t=11.33
3(1.79)+4t=11.33
5.37+4t=11.33
4t=5.96
divide both sides by 4
t=1.49
solution: 1 taco costs $1.49 and 1 burrito costs $1.79
Hi there! It depends on how high the value is.
??? what type of question is that??
Answer:
P = (65 - R) / 60
Step-by-step explanation:
Raul's grandfather is Miguel
Raul's sister is Paula
We are given that Raul’s age is the same as his grandfather’s age minus 60 times the age of his sister. If we write this mathematically, we have that:
R = M - (60*P)
Where R = Raul's age, M = Miguel's age and P = Paula's age
We are then given that Miguel is 65 years old, this means that M = 65
=> R = 65 - 60P
To find Paula's age, we make P the subject of formula, hence:
60P = 65 - R
=> P = (65 - R) / 60
We can use this expression to find Paula's age.
2x + y = 1 . . . (1)
3x - y = -6 . . . (2)
(1) + (2) => 5x = -5 => x = -5/5 = -1
From (1), 2x - 1 = 1 => 2x = 1 + 1 = 2 => x = 2/2 = 1
x = 1, y = -1
