The concession stand at the local high school sells pretzels and lemonade. The total cost of two pretzels and a lemonade is $5.75. The total cost of two lemonades is $0.25 more than the cost of a pretzel. What is the cost of a pretzel? $1.25 $2.00 $2.25 $2.75

Answers

Answer 1
The pretzel would be $2.25
Answer 2

Cost of a pretzel is equals to $2.25.

What is system of equations?

" A system of equations is a finite set of equations for which we find the common solution."

According to the question,

'x' represents the cost of  pretzel

'y' represents the cost of lemonade

As per situation given system of equation are,

Situation1: The total cost of two pretzels and a lemonade is $5.75, which can be represented by equation:

[tex]2x + y = \$5.75[/tex]                              ____(1)

Situation2: The total cost of two lemonades is $0.25 more than the cost of a pretzel, which can be represented by equation:

[tex]2y = 0.25 +x[/tex]                                _____(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2 we get,

[tex]4x + 2y = \$11.5[/tex]                              ______(3)

Substitute the value of 2y from (2) in (3) to get the cost of pretzel,

[tex]4x + 0.25 +x = \$11.5[/tex]

⇒ [tex]5x = 11.5 - 0.25[/tex]

⇒ [tex]5x = 11.25[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x =\frac{11.25}{5}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=\$2.25[/tex]

Hence, cost of a pretzel is equals to $2.25.

Your picture shows 3 combinations that are sufficient to tell you the price of each item.

The other two are
.. 0 fries + 1 shake + 1 burger = 4.20
.. 1 fries + 1 shake + 0 burger = 2.80

_____
Add any two orders and subtract the third to find the cost of one of the items.
For example add the two orders written above and subtract the one shown in the picture.
.. (1 fries + 2 shakes + 1 burger) - (1 fries + 1 burger) = (4.20 +2.80) -(3.40)
.. 2 shakes = 3.60
.. 1 shake = 1.80
Then the last equation tells you
.. 1 fries = 2.80 - 1 shake = 1.00
and the first equation tells you
.. 1 burger = 3.40 - 1 fries = 2.40

1 fries = $1.00
1 shake = $1.80
1 burger = $2.40

For this problem, the easiest method is to simply try each of the 4 possible answers and see which one fits. So
A. (3, 9)
2x + 3y > 1
2*3 + 3*9 > 1 ; Obviously true, not going to finish calculation.

y < 5/4 x - 1
9 < 5/4 3 - 1
9 < 15/4 - 1 ; Obviously false, not going to finish calculation.

B. (-4, 2)
2x + 3y > 1
2*(-4) + 3*2 > 1
-8 + 6 > 1 ; Obviously false, not going to finish calculation.
No need to bother with 2nd inequality.


C. (8, -1)
2x + 3y > 1
2*8 + 3*(-1) > 1
16 - 3 > 1 ; Obviously true, not going to finish calculation.


y < 5/4 x - 1
-1 < 5/4 * 8 - 1
-1 < 40/4 - 1
-1 < 10 - 1 ; Obviously true, not going to finish calculation.
Both inequalities satisfied, this is the correct choice.

D. (-2, -5)
2x + 3y > 1
2*(-2) + 3*(-5) > 1; Left hand side is obviously negative, so obviously false,

Show your work.

Answers

we have that
Circle 1: center (8, 5) and radius 6
Circle 2: center (−2, 1) and radius 2

we know that
the equation of a circle is
(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²
for the circle 1---------> (x-8)²+(y-5)²=36
for the circle 2---------> (x+2)²+(y-1)²=4

using a graph tool 
see the attached figure

Part A)What transformations can be applied to Circle 1 to prove that the circles are similar?

we know that
r1/r2---------> 6/2------> 3

to prove that the circle 1 and circle 2 are similar, the radius of circle 1 must be divided by 3 and  translate the center of the circle 1  (10) units to the left and (4) units down  

 the answer part A) is
the radius of circle 1 must be divided by 3 and  translate the center of the circle 1  (10) units to the left and (4) units down  


Part B) What scale factor does the dilation from Circle 1 to Circle 2 have?

Answers

the complete question in the attached figure

we have
arc XV = 68°
∠YUV = 36°
 
we know that
The measure of the external angle is the semidifference of the arcs that it covers.

arc VY=[2*∠YUV]+arc XV----------> [2*36]+68---------> 140°

the answer is
the measure of arc VY is 140°

If a rectangle is 7 feet long by 2 feet wide and  2 feet are added to the length of the rectangle then the area of rectangle is 18 square feet.

What is Area of Rectangle?

The area of Rectangle is length times of width.

Given that a rectangle has a length of 7 feet.

The width of rectangle is 2 feet.

We have to find the area of rectangle when 2 feet is added to the length of rectangle

Initial length is 7 feet

When 2 feet is added the length will be 7+2, 9 feet.

Area of rectangle = Length × width

=9×2

Nine times two is eighteen.

=18 square feet.

Hence, if a rectangle is 7 feet long by 2 feet wide and  2 feet are added to the length of the rectangle then the area of rectangle is 18 square feet.

we have been asked to find the ratio of the longest side to the perimeter of the​ right-triangular-shaped billboard.

Sides of the right-triangular-shaped billboard are 20 feet 21 feet 29 feet.

The average cell phone weighs about 4 ounces, or 0.25 pounds... 0.28 is closest to this number.

2.8 * 10^-3 = 0.0028 - Much too light

2.8 * 10^-1 = 0.28 - Reasonable weight

2.8 * 10^0 = 2.8 - Too heavy

2.8 * 10^1 = Much too heavy
Just plug in every value and see if it's a reasonable weight for a cell phone.

[tex]\sf 10^{-3}=0.001[/tex]
[tex]\sf 10^{-1}=0.1[/tex]
[tex]\sf 10^0=1[/tex]

Option 1 ⇒ the slope of that line will be zero because it is a horizontal line so it will be true.

Option 2 ⇒another point on this line will be (3,10) since it is a horizontal line so the y coordinate is the same and the x coordinate can vary so it is also true.

Option 3 ⇒ the y-intercept of this line will be 10 which is not true and can be confirmed by options 1 and 2.

Option 4 ⇒ the equation of the line will be y =10 which is true hence it is a horizontal line.

how fast is the water level rising in a rectangular fish tank whose base is 20 ft^2 if the tank is being filled at a rate of 0.5ft^3/min

Answers

V = Bh
0.5 ft^3 = (20 ft^2)h
h = (0.5 ft^3)/(20 ft^2) = 0.025 ft

The rate of change of water depth is 0.025 ft/min.

The water level is rising at a rate of 0.025 ft/min.

To determine how fast the water level is rising in the rectangular fish tank, you can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:

V = base area × height

Given that the base area is 20 [tex]ft^2[/tex] and the tank is being filled at a rate of

0.5 cube ft/min, you want to find the rate at which the height (h) is changing  [tex](\frac{dh}{dt} )[/tex].

V = base area × height

[tex]\frac{d V}{d t}=\text { base area } \times \frac{d h}{d t}[/tex]

Substitute the known values:

0.5 = 20 x [tex](\frac{dh}{dt} )[/tex]

Now, solve for [tex](\frac{dh}{dt} )[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d h}{d t}=\frac{0.5}{20}[/tex] = 0.025 ft/min

Thus, the required answer is 0.025 ft/min.

(d)Calculate RI. Show your work.
(e)What is the ratio of the areas of the two triangles? Show your work.

Answers

A) Using the side-splitter theorem we know that the sides that are intersected by the parallel lines are proportional.  It can also be shown that the angles are congruent due to the parallel segments cut by a transversal.
B) NI = 4.5
C) 4:5
D) RI = 27.5
E) 16:25

Explanation
We will set up a proportion for b:
AT/RT = NI/TI
12/15 = 18/x

Cross multiply:
12*x = 18*15
12x = 270

Divide both sides by 12:
12x/12 = 270/12
x = 22.5

Since TI = TN + NI, we have
22.5 = 18 + NI
-18       -18
4.5 = NI

C) The ratio of the sides of the smaller triangle to the larger rectangle are given by the ratio AT/RT, or 12/15 = 4/5.

D)  Setting up a proportion we have
AN/RI = AT/RT
22/RI = 12/15

Cross multiply:
22*15 = RI*12
330 = 12RI

Divide both sides by 12:
330/12 = 12RI/12
RI = 27.5

E)  The ratio of the areas will be the square of the ratio of the side lengths, since area is a square measurement:
