Answer:</h2>
x = 1
y = 1
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Substitute into one of the equations

Rearrange variables to the left sider of the equation

Combine like terms

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable

Determine the sign for multiplication or division

Cross out the common factor

Substitute into one of the equations

The solution of the system is

2a+1b=27.50
4a+2b=59.50
Multiply first equation by -4 and the second by 2 so you can drop off the a values then add the equations together. Then solve for b. You should get b=6.
Then plug b into one of the original equations and solve for a and you should get 10.75
So a plate of spaghetti is $10.75 and a salad is $6.

Answer:
Sasha’s down payment will likely be less if she decided to buy.
Answer:
6 units squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula:
area = 0.25 * √( (a + b + c) * (-a + b + c) * (a - b + c) * (a + b - c) )
Assign variables:
A = 5, B = 4, C = 3.
Distribute:
area = 0.25 * √( (5 + 4 + 3) * (-5 + 4 + 3) * (5 - 4 + 3) * (5 + 4 - 3) )
Combine like terms
area = 0.25 * √( (12) * (2) * (4) * (6) )
Multiply:
area = 0.25 * √(576)
Square root:
area = 0.25 * 24
Multiply:
area = 6 units squared
15,000
Since her interest is simple, it adds the 10% to the original amount.
So, we multiply her amount (10,000) by the interest rate (.1) and by the amount of years (5).
10,000 * .1 * 5= 5,000
This is how much she has gained from said interest. Adding this to 10,000 gives us 15,000, which is the amount she will have.
Another way to do this would be to make a chart/table:
Start: 10,000
1. 11,000
2. 12,000
3. 13,000
4. 14,000
5. 15,000
And thus, we get the same answer.
