Answer:
<em>He bought 6 hotdogs and 2 drinks</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
Kevin and his children went into a restaurant and bought $31.50 worth of hotdogs and drinks. Each hotdog costs $4.50 and each drink costs $2.25.
To solve the system of equations, we'll call the variables:
x = number of hotdogs
y = number of drinks
The first condition yields the equation:
4.50x + 2.25y = 31.50 [1]
It's also known he bought 3 times as many hotdogs as drinks, thus:
x = 3y [2}
Substituting [2] in [1]:
4.50(3y) + 2.25y = 31.50
Operating:
13.5y + 2.25y = 31.50
15.75y = 31.50
y = 31.50/15.75
y = 2
And
x = 3*2 = 6
He bought 6 hotdogs and 2 drinks
Answer:
f(1)=34 ; f(n)= f(n-1) +6, for n >2
Step-by-step explanation:
arithmetic sequence
Answer:
Part a) Daniel's age is 2 years
Part b) Kevin's age is 8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The question is </em></u>
Part a) How old is Daniel?
Part b) How old is Kevin?
Let
x ----> Kevin's age
y ----> Daniel's age
we know that
-----> equation A
----> equation B
Equate equation A and equation B
solve for y
therefore
Daniel's age is 2 years
<em>Find the value of x</em>
substitute the value of y in any of the two equations
therefore
Kevin's age is 8 years
Answer:
1= b
2= f
Step-by-step explanation:
So (positive integer)-x-y can be negative
so to get a negative number as your result/answer, x+y must be greater than (positve integer) so for example
lets say (positive integer)=8
x+y must be greater than 8 to make the equation negative so
example
x=5
y=4
x+y=9
8-9=-1
