To determine the cost of each item, we need to set up equations. From the problem statement, we have three unknowns so we need three equations. We set up equations as follows:
let x cost of small pizzas
y cost of soda
z cost of salad
two small pizzas, a liter of soda, and a salad cost $14
2x + y + z = 14
one small pizza, a liter of soda, and three salads cost $15
x + y + 3z = 15
three small pizzas, a liter of soda, and two salads cost $22
3x + y + 2z = 22
Solving for x, y and z, we will have:
x = $ 5
y = $ 1
z = $ 3
Let x = price of the bike before a sales tax.
The price after a sales tax of 8% is
x + 0.08x = 1.08x dollars
Because the price paid was $171.18, therefore
1.08x = 171.18
x = 171.18/1.08 = $158.50
Answer: 158.50

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
72
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Since the ratio of blue jays to robin's was 6 to 7 then if there were 84 robins how many blue jays were there.</em>
<em>6 to 7 can also be express as 6/7</em>
<em>Thus, we can set up a proportion</em>
<em>6/7 = x/84</em>
<em>Now, we have to solve for x</em>
<em>x = 72</em>
<em>Hence, if there were 84 robin there would be 72 blue jays.</em>
