Answer:

2  Beetle juices and 3 Potion Punch

Step-by-step explanation:

j = Beetle Juice       cost $2.50

p = Potion Punch      Cost $3

         j + p = 5                      <em>Multiply by -3</em>              -3j  - 3p = -15

$2.50j + $3p = $14           <em>Do not change      </em>+ <em>  </em><u><em> </em></u><u>2.50j  -3p = 14      </u>

                                                                                 - .50j      = -1

                                                                                          j = 2   Beetle Juice

   Substitute into the fist equation and solve for y       j + p = 5

                                                                                         2 + p = 5

                                                                                              p = 3   Potion Punch

Find the diameter of a circle with an area of<br>95.03 square feet.<br>​
ra1l [238]

For this case we have that the area of a circle is given by:

A = \pi * r ^ 2

Where:

r: It is the radius of the circle

By clearing the radio we have:

r = \pm \sqrt {\frac {A} {\pi}}

We take the positive value:

r = \sqrt {\frac {A} {\pi}}\\r = \sqrt {\frac {95.03} {\pi}}\\r = 5.50 \ ft

The diameter is twice the radius:

d = 11

Answer:

11 \ ft
