John and 2 friends are going out for pizza for lunch. They split one pizza and 3 large drinks. The pizza cost $12.50. They spend a total of $16.85. Write an equation to represent the problem. Find the cost of one large drink.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Hm, okay.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, if the pizza cost $12.50, and the total money spent is $16.85, we must first subtract our money spent on pizza from the total amount spent.

$16.85 - $12.50 = $4.35

So, that means that John and his two friends spent $4.35 on 3 large drinks. But how do we figure out how much each individual drink cost?

We divide $4.35 by 3.

$4.35 / 3 = $1.45.

So, the amount of money spent on one large drink was $1.45.

How to solve for y

Answers

The solution of the given linearequation 5x+10=10y  is  (x)/(2) + 1 = y.

Two algebraic expressions separated by an equal symbol in between them and with the same value of the expression are called equations.

Example = 2x +4 = 12

here, 4 and 12 are constants and x is variable.

The value of y can be calculated as:

5x+10=10y

Since, the equation is divisible by 5,

So, the equation becomes,

x+2=2y

Divide both sides by 2, to get the value of y

(x)/(2) + 1 = y

Thus, the value of y in the given equation 5x+10=10y  is  (x)/(2) + 1 = y.

Divide by 10
So you get 5/10x +1=y
Or 1/5x+1=y

A contractor has 48 meters of fencing to use as the perimeter of a rectangular garden. The length of one side of the garden is represented by x, and the area of the garden is 108 square meters. Determine, algebraically, the dimensions of the garden in meters

Answers

if we let y be the dimension of the other side, then the perimeter has the formula
P = 2x + 2y
48 = 2x + 2y

The area of the rectangle has the formula
A = xy
108 = xy

So,
x = 108/y

Substituting this to the first equation
48 = 2(108/y) + 2y
48y = 216 + 2y^2
2y^2 - 48y + 216 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation:
y = 18 or 6

Either of the two is the correct answer for y, the value of x would just be the other. So, the dimensions of the garden is
18 m x 6 m

Find the values of x and y.

Answer:

x=3.5,y=24

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle joining the midpoints of the bigger right angle triangle will also be a right angle triangle.

Midpoint Theorem-

According to this, the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints is half the length of the third side.

Applying this,

\Rightarrow x=(1)/(2)(4x-7)

\Rightarrow 2x=4x-7

\Rightarrow 4x-2x=7

\Rightarrow 2x=7

\Rightarrow x=(7)/(2)=3.5

So, the hypotenuses of the bigger triangle will be,

=6(3.5)+4=25

Applying the mid point theorem, the hypotenuses of the smaller triangle will be,

=(1)/(2)* 25=12.5

Applying Pythagoras theorem in the smaller triangle, the leg will be

=√(12.5^2-3.5^2)\n\n=√(156.25-12.25)\n\n=√(144)\n\n=12

Again applying mid point theorem,

\Rightarrow y=2* 12=24
