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

one month Miguel rented 5 movies and 3 video games for a total of $27. The next month he ordered 2 movies and 6 video games for
34kurt

Answer:

The price of each movie is $2.25

The price of each video games is $5.41  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Miguel rented 5 movies and 3 video games for a total cost = $27

Next day Miguel rented 2 movies and 6 video games for a total cost = $36

Let The cost of each movie = $m

And The cost of each video game = $v

Now, According to question

5 m + 3 v = 27            .....1

2 m + 6 v = 36          ...........2

Now, solving the equation

2 × (5 m + 3 v)  - (2 m + 6 v) = 2 × 27 - 36

Or, 10 m + 6 v - 2 m - 6 v = 54 - 36

Or, (10 m - 2 m) + (6 v - 6 v) = 18

Or, 8 m + 0 = 18

∴ m = \dfrac{18}{8} = \dfrac{9}{4}

i.e m = $2.25

So, The price of each movie =  m = $2.25

Again, put the value of m into eq 2

So, 2 × 2.25 + 6 v = 36  

Or, 4.5 + 6 v = 36  

Or, 6 v = 36 - 4.5

Or, 6 v = $32.5

∴ v = \dfrac{32.5}{6}

i.e v = $5.41

So, The price of each video games = v = $5.41

Hence, The price of each movie is $2.25 and

The price of each video games is $5.41  Answer
