Given:

Cost of two donuts and three cookies = $3.30

Cost of five donuts and two cookies = $4.95

To find:

The cost of each donut.

Solution:

Let x be the cost of each donut and y be the cost of each cookie.

Cost of two donuts and three cookies = $3.30

2x+3y=3.30          ...(i)

Cost of five donuts and two cookies = $4.95

5x+2y=4.95          ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 2.

4x+6y=6.60          ...(iii)

Multiply equation (ii) by 3.

15x+6y=14.85      ...(iv)

Subtracting (iii) from (iv), we get

15x+6y-4x-6y=14.85-6.60

11x=8.25

Divide both sides by 11.

x=\dfrac{8.25}{11}

x=0.75

Therefore, the cost of each donut is $0.75.

Find the value of the variable and the measure of each labeled angle
ololo11 [35]
Since the two angles that you have are vertical angles, we know that vertical angles are congruent, so you have to set them to equal each other.

x+24=5x-36
-4x+24=-36
-4x=-60
x=15

We now have the value of x so now we plug it in for each expression of each angle.

x+24=?
15+24=39

5x-36=?
5(15)-36=?
75-36=39

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO WHOEVER ANSWERS FIRST! A circle has a diameter AB, and its center is at (-3, 3). Point A is at (1/2,6)
kow [346]

Using the mid-point concept, it is found that point B is located at coordinates (-6.5, 0).

<h3>What is the midpoint concept?</h3>

The midpoint between two points is the halfway point between them, and is found using the mean of the coordinates.

The center is the midpoint of the two coordinates of the diameter, hence:

C = \frac{B + A}{2}

For the x-coordinate:

-3 = \frac{x + 0.5}{2}

x + 0.5 = -6

x = -6.5

For the y-coordinate:

3 = \frac{y + 6}{2}

y + 6 = 6

y = 0

A countertop is 16 feet long and 3 feet wide. what is the area of the countertop in square meters
Paladinen [302]

The area of the countertop is (16-ft x 3-ft) = 48 feet² .

1 foot = 0.3048 meter (rounded)

(1 foot)² = (0.3048 meter)² = 0.0929 meter²

48 feet² = (48 x 0.0929) =  4.459 meter² (rounded)
