Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the cost of a cupcake and cookie respectively.
Given that;
Five cupcakes and two cookies cost $19.75.

Two cupcakes and four cookies cost $17.50.

Let's solve the simultaneous equation by elimination;
Multiply equation 1 by 2;

Subtract equation 2 from equation 3;


divide both sides by 8

Since we have the value of x, let substitute into equation 1 to get y;

therefore , the cost of cupcakes and cookies are;

Paper Rectangular Prism
cuboid
(x)(3x - 5) = 12
3x^2 - 5x = 12
3x^2 - 5x - 12 = 0
(x - 3)(3x + 4) = 0
x = 3, -4/3
The answer must be negative so the number is -4/3.
Hope this helps!
Slope is how much a line goes up in ratio to how much the line goes to the right
(rise) / (run)
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) when given points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
every time you go to the Right 1 unit, how much it goes Up is the slope
(if it is down, the slope is negative)
