Answer: $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume hamburgers are x and French fries are y.

Use a simultaneous equation to solve;

2x + y = 4.75

3x + 3y = 9.00

Using substitution;

2x + y = 4.75

y = 4.75 - 2x

Solving it;

3x + 3y = 9

3x + 3 * (4.75 - 2x) = 9

3x + 14.25 - 6x = 9

-3x = 9 - 14.25

-3x = -5.25

x= -5.25/-3

x = 1.75

y = 4.75 - 2x

= 4.75 - 2 * 1.75

= 1.25

Hamburgers are x so they cost $1.75 each.

Solving for x...
\frac{1}{2} x+ \frac{1}{4} =  \frac{15}{16} 


Times the \frac{1}{2} , both the numerator and denominator, by 8 to get the denominator to 16.
Times the \frac{1}{4} , both the numerator and denominator, by 4 to get the denominator to 16.

Then rewrite the problem, 
\frac{8}{16}x+ \frac{4}{16} =  \frac{15}{16}

now that the denominators are all the same, you can solve...
subtract the \frac{4}{16} from both sides

you should get \frac{8}{16} x =  \frac{11}{16}

Multiply both sides by 16 (it'll cancel both the 16 out making it go away)
     8x = 11

divide each side by 8 to have the x alone

     <u>8x</u> = <u>11
</u>      8      8 
<u>
</u> You should end with x = \frac{11}{8} or 1.375<u>

Answer:

21 pieces

Explanation:

The 3in one could be written as 24/8, because it equals 3.

So you find how many 3/8s are inside 24/8, the answer would be 8 pieces for the first one.

Then the 5in one is=40/8

With this one you would have 13 pieces and 1/8 lasting.

exis [7]
If the paintball is going 150m a second and the question asks, "starting from the distance of your friend what is the distance every TENTH of a second"
Ok so 150 meter a second so to get a tenth of a second you do 150/10 which is 15, if you start at 25 m away from you then only A and E could be correct, so now do 25+15 then that +15 and so on and you can see that letter choice E is correct
