Answer:

cost of one cupcake = $2.75

cost of one brownie = $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c = number of cupcakes

Let b = number of brownies

Equation 1:  5c + 2b = 16.25

Equation 2:  7c + 6b = 26.75

Multiply equation 1 by 3:

⇒ 15c + 6b = 48.75

Now subtract equation 2 from this equation to eliminate 6b:

⇒ 8c = 22

Divide both sides by 8:

⇒ c = 2.75

Substitute c = 2.75 into one of the original equations and solve for b:

⇒ 5(2.75) + 2b = 16.25

⇒ 13.75 + 2b = 16.25

⇒ 2b = 2.5

⇒ b = 1.25

Therefore, cost of one cupcake = $2.75 and cost of one brownie = $1.25

A garden is designed in the shape of a rhombus formed from 4 identical 30°-60°-90° triangles. The shorter distance across the mi
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

c) 120 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider the rhombus has 4 sides, A, B, C, and D.

To find the length of each side, let's first find the length AE.

From the diagram, AE is half of AC and AC = 30 ft.

Therefore,

AE = ½ * 30

AE = 15 ft

Let's find the length AD, since we are looking for the distance around the perimeter.

AD = \frac{15}{sin30} = \frac{15}{0.5} = 30 ft

We are told the rhombus is formed by four identical triangles.

Therefore the distance around the perimeter would be: AD+AD+AD+AD=

30 ft + 30 ft + 30 ft + 30 ft

= 120 ft

The distance around the perimeter of the garden is 120 ft
