Let c represent candy and s soda.
2c+s=8
c+s=5.5
Solving the pair of simultaneous equations by eliminating s,
c=2.5
Representing the value of c in equation 1;
5+s=8
s=3
So, a box of Candy costs 2.5 and a soda costs 3
Answer:
170 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to find the area of each surface of the square
1) the square on the right side:
5x5=25 in^2
there are 2 of these on opposite sides
2)the of the rectangle facing us;
6x5=30in^2 (5 because 5 is the height)
there are 4 of these
3)add up all the areas
25+25+30+30+30+30=170in^2
You solve for y
4y=-6x+2
y=-6/4x+2
y=-2/3x+2
Slope is -2/3, the number in front of x is the slope.
For this case we can make the following rule of three:
21 ------> 70%
x --------> 100%
Clearing x we have:
x = (100/70) * (21)
Rewriting we have:
x = (10/7) * (21)
x = 30
Thus,
21 is 70% of 30
Answer:
21 is 70% of 30
