The cost for one steak burger and cost of one order of fries is $10.75 and $2.5 respectively

let

cost of one steak burger = x

cost of one order fries = y

The equation:

4x + 2y = 38 (1)

2x + 3y = 14 (2)

Multiply (1) by 3 and (2) by 2

12x + 6y = 114 (3)

4x + 6y = 28 (4)

subtract (4) from (3) to eliminate y

12x - 4x = 114 - 28

8x = 86

divide both sides by 8

x = 86/8

x = 10.75

substitute x = 10.75 into (2)

2x + 3y = 14 (2)

2(10.75) + 3y = 14

21.5 + 3y = 14

3y = 14 - 21.5

3y = 7.5

y = 7.5/3

y = 2.5

Therefore, the cost for one steak burger and cost of one order of fries is $10.75 and $2.5 respectively

Answer:

The answer is the sum of three times a number and six, divided by the difference of seven times the number and nine

3p = three x a number

7p = seven x a number

3p+6 = sum of three x a number plus six

A train leaves San Diego at 1:00 pm. A second train leaves the same city in the same direction at 3:00 pm. The second train trav
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The speed of the first train is 45 mph and the speed of the second train is 75 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the first train in mph. Since the second train, is 30 mph faster then the first, therefore the speed of the second train is (x + 30).

The first train leaves at 1:00 pm, therefore at 6:00 pm, the time taken is 5 hours. Therefore the distance covered by the first train at 6:00 pm = x mph * 5 hours = 5x miles

The second train leaves at 3:00 pm, therefore at 6:00 pm, the time taken is 3 hours. Therefore the distance covered by the second train at 6:00 pm = (x + 30) mph * 3 hours = (3x + 90) miles

Since the second train overtakes the first at 6:00 pm, hence:

3x + 90 = 5x

2x = 90

x = 45

Therefore the speed of the first train is 45 mph and the speed of the second train is 75 mph (45 mph + 30 mph).
