Answer : Cookie is 50 cents.
Step by step explanation :
Cookie = x and brownie = y
Equation : x + 2y = 2x + y
Subtract y on both sides.
X + y = 2x
Since x + y equals 1, plug that into the equation.
1 = 2x
X = 0.5, or 50 cents
One cookie costs 50 cents. Please mark brainliest if possible ;)

Answer:

50 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a system of equations. Let x be a cookie and y be a brownie then...

x+2y=2x+y

x+y=1

We can solve this using substitution

x=1-y

1-y+2y=2(1-y)+y

1+y=2-2y+y

1+y=2-y

-1=-2y

y=1/2

One brownie costs 50 cents and one cookie costs...

x+1/2=1

x=1/2

One cookie costs 50 cents

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do all real numbers have a decimal expansion? Select each correct answer. Some numbers, such as 1 10 ​
ankoles [38]

Answer:

1. Some numbers, such as \frac{1}{10}, have a decimal expansion that terminates.

2. All real numbers have a decimal expansion.

5. Some numbers, such as \frac{1}{18}, have a decimal expansion that repeats but does not terminate.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the options, we have,

1. Some numbers, such as \frac{1}{10}, have a decimal expansion that terminates.

It is correct as the decimal expansion of \frac{1}{10} is 0.1, which terminates.

2. All real numbers have a decimal expansion.

This is also correct as both rational and irrational numbers can be written in decimal form.

3. Some numbers, such as \sqrt{13} do not have a decimal expansion

This is not correct as \sqrt{13}=3.605551275 i.e. it has a decimal expansion.

4. Only some real numbers have a decimal expansion.

It is not correct as 2 is correct.

5. Some numbers, such as \frac{1}{18}, have a decimal expansion that repeats but does not terminate.

It is correct as \frac{1}{18}=0.0555555.., which is non-terminating decimal expansion.

So, the correct options are,

1. Some numbers, such as \frac{1}{10}, have a decimal expansion that terminates.

2. All real numbers have a decimal expansion.

5. Some numbers, such as \frac{1}{18}, have a decimal expansion that repeats but does not terminate.
