A self-serve frozen yogurt restaurant charges its customers according to the weight of their filled frozen yogurt cup. So, the a
jeyben [28]
If the price of the yogurt is directly proportional to the weight of the purchase, then it can be expressed as:

Price of yogurt = weight of purchase

With the given above, it can be further expressed as:
$5.04 = 12 oz

These can be expressed in ratio form, which is:

5.04/12

Thus, if the cup weighs 8 oz and we don't know how much it costs, then the ratio should be:

n = 8 oz, or in fractions:
n/8

After this, simply equate the two and cross multiply. 
5.04 / 12 = n/8
5.04(8) = 12n
40.32 = 12n

Then solve for n:
40.32 /12 = 12n/12
n = 3.36. 

Thus, the 8 oz. cup of yogurt costs $3.36.

The lakers scored a total of 80 points in a basketball game against the bulls. the lakers make a total of 37 two-point and three
Dmitrij [34]
To answer the item, we let x be the number of 2-point baskets and y be the 3-point basket, respectively. The system of linear equations that would allow us to express the given mathematically is,

    x + y = 37
   2x + 3y = 80

To determine the values of the variables, express x of the first equation in terms of y.
    x = 37 - y

Substituting this to the second equation,

 2(37 - y) + 3y = 80

The value of y from the equation is 6. 

    x = 37 - 6 = 31

<em>Answer: 31 two-point baskets</em>
