Answer:

Cost of pop = $2

Cost of snacks = $3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Cost of pop = x

Cost of snacks = y

Hauler

x + 4y = 14

Good

2x + 2y = 10

x + 4y = 14 (1)

2x + 2y = 10 (2)

Using elimination method

Multiply (1) by (2)

2x + 8y = 28 (3)

2x + 2y = 10 (2)

Subtract (2) from (3) to eliminate x

8y - 2y = 28 - 10

6y = 18

y = 18/6

y = $3

Substitute y = 3 into (1)

x + 4y = 14 (1)

x + 4(3) = 14

x + 12 = 14

x = 14 - 12

x = $2

Cost of pop = $2

Cost of snacks = $3

What is the sum of 7/22 and 9/22
natulia [17]
 when u have a common a denominator then you just add the numerator that would be 7 and 9. 7 + 9= 16
so ur solution would be 16/22 and then u would simplify by dividing both values by 2.
so the solution is8/11

The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its length and its width. The perimeter is 22 meters and its length is 2 meters
Nitella [24]
Hello,
Let l represent length
w represent width
P represent perimeter

P=2(l+w)
22=2(l+w)
Divide 2 from both side
22/2=2(l+w)/2
11=l+w

l=2w+2
Apply this into the first equation
2w+2+w=11
3w+2=11
Subtract 2 from both side
3w+2-2=11-2
3w=9
Divided 3 from both side
3w/3=9/3
w=3 meters
l=2w+2
l=2(3)+2
l=8 meters
If you want to find the area
A=l×w
A=8×3
A=24 square meters. As a result, the length of this rectangle is 8 meters, width is 3 meters, and area is 24 square meters. Hope it help!
