Rasheed bought five funnel cakes and three milkshakes for a total of 47.25 (more below, )

The cost of a funnel cake is $6.75 and the cost of a milkshake is $4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the cost of a funnel cake

y----> the cost of a milkshake

we know that

5x+3y=47.25 -----> equation A

2x+6y=40.50 ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (6.75,4.50)

see the attached figure

therefore

The cost of a funnel cake is $6.75

The cost of a milkshake is $4.50

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

a is the right answer
