Answer:

£0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

t = one cup of tea

c = one piece of cake

t + c = £1.10

2t + c = £1.70

the cost increases by £0.60 (£1.70 - £1.10) when you order one more cup of tea which means that one cup of tea costs £0.60

substitute £0.60 into t + c = £1.10

£0.60 + c = £1.10

rearrange to get c = £1.10 - £0.60 = £0.50

so one piece of cake costs £0.50

Answer: piece of cake is 0.5£

Explanation:

Tea + cake = 1.10
2 Tea + cake = 1.70

From that we can find the value of a cup of tea by simply 1.70 - 1.10 = 0.6£

If cup of tea = 0.6£

Then a cake = 1.10 - 0.6 = 0.5 £

3[5x - 4] - [-30 - 45x]
Nimfa-mama [501]
3(5x - 4) - (-30-45x)
= 15x - 12 + 30 + 45x <- Distributive Property
=60x + 18 <- Combine Like Terms

If you're trying to solve for 0:

0 = 60 x + 18
-18 = 60x <- Subtracted 18 from both sides
x = \frac{-18}{60} = \frac{-9}{30} <- Divided both sides by 60 and then simplified.

x = \frac{-9}{30} <- Fraction Form
x = -0.3 <- Decimal Form

Give Brainliest for simple answer plz :P

The math department needs to buy new textbooks and laptops for the computer science classroom. The textbooks cost $116.00 each,
Sav [38]

Answer:

6 laptops

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the amount spent on the textbooks:

30(116)

= 3480

Subtract this from the total amount they have to spend:

6500 - 3480

= 3020

Divide this amount by 439 to find how many laptops they can buy:

3020/439

= 6.8

Round down to 6 since you can only have full laptops:

= 6

So, they can buy 6 laptops
