Chris bought 2 chicken sandwiches and 3 bowls of vegetable soup for $16.50. Jim bought 1 chicken sandwich and 2 bowls of vegetable soup for $9.50. What was the cost of a bowl of soup? A) $4.50 B) $2.50 C) $5.50 D) $3.25​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations, best solved by using the elimination method. But first we have to come up with our 2 equations that represent the system. Let's call the chicken sandwiches "c" and the bowls of soup "b".

If Chris bought 2 chicken sandwiches and 3 bowls of soup for $16.50, his equation is:

2c + 3b = 16.50

If Jim bought 1 sandwich and 2 bowls of soup for $9.50, then his equation is:

1c + 2b = 9.50

We put these together, one above the other, lining up the variables:

2c + 3b = 16.50

1c + 2b =   9.50

If we multiply the second equation by -2 we can eliminate the c variable. Multiplying the second equation by -2 changes only that equation, making the "new" system:

2c + 3b = 16.50

-2c - 4b = -19.00

When we add straight down each column, the c's cancel each other out (they subtract away) and in the b column we have -1b, and in the answer column, we have -2.50.

That equation is -b = -2.50 or b = 2.50

A bowl of soup costs $2.50, choice B

Determined the perimeter and area of the following figure. Use 3.14 for pi

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

first you will put a line in the missing part of the inside of the figure.Once you do you will see that there are two figures.

to find the diagonal of the half-circle : 7cm-2cm-1cm=4cm

Now use the area formulas for each figure.The area of the semicircle is pi×d/2.The area of the rectangle is a×b.

A of semicircle =3.14×4cm/2=6.28cm²

A of rectangle =7×3=21cm²

to find the perimeter of them:

P of semicircle = 3.14×4=12.56cm

Kayla runs 3/4 mile in 1/10 hour assuming she runs at a constant rate what is her speed in miles per hour

Answers

Answer:

7.5 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Kayla runs 3/4 mile in 1/10 hour assuming she runs at a constant rate

To find: speed in miles per hour

Solution:

Distance travelled by Kayla = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] mile

Time = [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] hour

To find the speed in miles per hour, use the following formula:

Speed = Distance ÷ Time = [tex]\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{\frac{1}{10} }=\frac{3}{4}(10)=7.5[/tex] miles per hour

Annual interest rate: r = 3.5% = 0.035

Time: t = 4 years

Number of compounding periods per year: n = 2

[tex] F = P(1 + \dfrac{r}{n})^{nt} [/tex]

HI SOMEONE PLEASE HELP I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO THIS :(( i need to know the measure of angles 13 and 12 then the measure of the line segment SG. Thank you sm in advance​

Answers

Answer:

Angle 13 equal 90 and Angle 12 equal 45

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a square so all of the corner angles and the diagonals angles measure 90 degrees. A square also forms 4 congruent isoceles triangles or technically 45-45-90 triangles. So that means the following angles measure 45 degrees since they share a point

Angle 5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12. So the measure of 12 is 90 degrees.

To find the measure of 13, in a square diagonals bisect each other and form perpendicular lines so that means every angle in the middle of the square measure 90 degrees.

Using that

Angle 13,15,16 and R measure 90 degrees so Angle 13 equal 90.

Use place value blocks 60rows of cornstalks type Agrows better so there are8 cornstalks in each row type B does not grow as well so they are only 3 cornstalks in each row

Answers

Answer:

Each field has cornstalks = 660

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

As given,

There are 2 types of corn - Type A and Type B

Each field has 60 rows

In each row -

Type A corn grow = 8

Type B corn grow = 3

⇒Total corn grow in each row = 8 + 3 = 11

Now,

1 row = 11 cornstalks

⇒60 rows = 60×11 cornstalks = 660 cornstalks

∴ we get

Each field has cornstalks = 660

The graph is a demonstration of curves that gives the relationship between the x and y-axis.

Here,
The graphs show their distances from home over the same 30-minute period as they walked to the park.
From the graph,
It can be concluded that,
Both reach the park at the same time, as the termination point of the curve is the same.
The graph of mia starts after 10 minutes Erick, which implies Mia left her house 10 minutes before Erick left his house. And Erick walked the same distances as Mia during the last 10 minutes as the slope of the last segment of both curves is the same.

1/2(3x-4)

3/2x - 2

You do the parentheses first because of PEDMAS.  So 1 combined the 2 and the -6.

Answer:

The first answer (3/2x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to multiply 1/2 by 2 which gives you 1.  then when you multiply 1/2 by 3, you can't make it a whole number, so you make it a fraction and it then becomes 3/2x.  Lastly, you do 1/2 times -6 which gives you -3.  The equation goes from 1/2(2+3x-6) to then 1+3/2x-3.  Since 1 and 3 can be subtracted because they're both whole numbers, you do 1-6 which gives you -5.  The answer then becomes 3/2x -5

1. What is the domain of the function graphed on the grid? ​

Answers

Answer:

[-2,4]

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is just asking for all the possible x values

we can see that the lowest x value is -2 and the highest is 4 which means our answer is

[-2,4]

Answer:

Another way to identify the domain and range of functions is by using graphs. Because the domain refers to the set of possible input values, the domain of a graph consists of all the input values shown on the

x

-axis. The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the

y

-axis. Keep in mind that if the graph continues beyond the portion of the graph we can see, the domain and range may be greater than the visible values.

We can observe that the graph extends horizontally from −5 to the right without bound, so the domain is [−5,∞). The vertical extent of the graph is all range values 5 and below, so the range is (−∞,5]. Note that the domain and range are always written from smaller to larger values, or from left to right for domain, and from the bottom of the graph to the top of the graph for range.
