Let
x------------> the cost of one <span>slices of cheese pizza
y------------> the cost of one soda

we know that
3x+2y=8.75
2x+4y=8.50

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

the solution is
x=2.25
y=1
so
x+3y-----> 2.25+3*1------> 5.25

the answer is 
the option B) $5.25

A dealer bought 3 gross buttons at $.38 a dozen. He sold the buttons at 5 cents each. How much was his profit per gross?(12 doze
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

$2.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling them at 5 cents each ($0.05), he could sell 1 dozen buttons for

12 * $0.05 = $0.60

As he bought them at $0.38 per dozen, the profit per dozen would be

$0.60 - $0.38 = $0.22

As 12 dozen is 1 gross, the profit per gross would be

12 * $0.22 = $2.64

Which is the simplified form of x Superscript negative 12?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

C.\frac{1}{x^{12}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an expression

(x)^{-12}

We have to find the simplified form of given expression.

We know that

a^{-b}=\frac{1}{a^b}

Using the property then we get

x^{-12}=\frac{1}{x^{12}}

Hence, the simplified form of x^{-12} is given by

\frac{1}{x^{12}}

Option C is true.

Gary used landscape timbers to create a border around a garden shaped like a right triangle. The longest two timbers he used are
Cloud [144]

Answer:

9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The border of the garden is a right angled triangle.

Two lengths are given as 12 ft and 15 ft.

Let the length of the shortest timber be 'x' feet.

Now, in a right angled triangle, the longest length is called the hypotenuse.

As 15 feet is the largest length, it is the hypotenuse of the triangle. Now, applying Pythagoras theorem, we get:

(Leg1)^2+(Leg2)^2=(Hypotenuse)^2\\x^2+12^2=15^2\\x^2+144=225\\x^2=225-144\\x^2=81\\x=\pm \sqrt{81}=\pm 9

The negative value is neglected as length can never be negative.

Therefore, the length of the shortest timber is 9 feet.
