Answer: the cost of a milkshake is $2.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of a banana split.

Let y represent the cost of a milkshake.

At the ice cream shop, one banana split and five milkshakes cost $16.24. This is expressed as

x + 5y = 16.24- - - - - - - - - - - - -1

If three banana splits and two milkshakes cost $15.05. This is expressed as

3x + 2y = 15.05- - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 1, it becomes

3x + 15y = 48.72

3x + 2y = 15.05

Subtracting, it becomes

13y = 33.67

y = 33.67/13

y = 2.59

Substituting y = 2.59 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 5 × 2.59 = 16.24

x + 12.95 = 16.24

x = 16.24 - 12.95

x = 3.29

Alik [6]

Answer:

1,135 people

For every 100 people only 45 people watch more than 10 hours per week. So, the ratio is (45/100), since the company has 2500 we want to know what (x/2500) is. The total ratio becomes (1,135/2,500).

The number is found by dividing 2500 by 100 to receive the common factor of 25. You multiply 45 by 25 to receive your total answer.

Find the standard form of the equation of the parabola with a vertex at the origin and a focus at (0, 9). I need help
Juliette [100K]
From the given data:<span> vertex at the origin and a focus at (0, 9), the parabola should be facing upwards. In this case, the length of the latus rectum is 9 units which is a. Hence the equation becomes y = 4 (9) x^2. The equation is equal to y = 36 x^2. The standard form is 36 x^2 - y = 0.</span>

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

122.7792 sq. m

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter= 8.4 m

therefore, radius = r = 4.2 m.......( as radius is 1/2 of diameter)

height = h= 12 m

only the exterior is to painted so the total surface area of the cylinder is taken,

total surface area of cylinder = 2π r( h+r)

=2* 3.14* 4.2*(12+4.2)

=122.7792 sq. m
