Answer:
The cost of each:
1 cheese slice = c = $3.75
1 pepperoni slice = p = $2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost:
1 cheese slice = c
1 pepperoni slice = p
Two friends are going to the mall to buy pizza.
One of the friends buys 1cheese slice and 2 pepperoni slices for $8.75.
c + 2p = $8.75.....Equation 1
c = $8.75 - 2p
Her friend purchases 2 chese slices and 3 pepperoni slices for $15.00.
2c + 3p = $15.00.....Equation 2
We substitute 8.75 - 2p for c in Equation 2
2(8.75 - 2p) + 3p = $15.00
17.5 - 4p + 3p = 15
Collect like terms
- 4p + 3p = 15 - 17.5
-p = -2.5
p = $2.5
c = $8.75 - 2p
c = $8.75 - 2(2.5)
c = $8.75 - 5.0
c = $3.75
The cost of each:
1 cheese slice = c = $3.75
1 pepperoni slice = p = $2.5
You would divide 3/5 by 4/1 so then that would mean you keep change flip so its 3/5 times 1/4 which is equal to 3/20 each person or friend would get
Answer:
• David
,
• 4 miles
Explanation:
In the graph:
The given locations are:
• Owen's House, A(11,3)
,
• David's House, B(15,13)
,
• School, C(3,18)
We determine both Owen's and David's distance from the school using the distance formula.
Owen's distance from school (AC)
David's distance from school (BC)
We see from the calculations that David lives closer to the school, and by 4 miles.
The graph below is attached for further understanding:
