4d + 4b = 14 and 8d + 3b = 20.50 are the system of equations that can be used to find the price of one drink and the price of one bag of popcorn

Price of one drink is $ 2 and price of one bag of popcorn is $ 1.5

Solution:

Let "d" be the price of one drink

Let "b" be the price of one bag of popcorn

Given that Justin spends a total of $14.00 on 4 drinks and 4 bags of popcorn.

So we can frame a equation as:

4 drinks x price of one drink + 4 bags of popcorn x price of one bag of popcorn = $ 14.00

$4 \times d + 4 \times b = 14.00$

4d + 4b = 14 ------ eqn 1

Given that Lincoln spends a total of $20.50 on 8 drinks and 3 bags of popcorn

So we can frame a equation as:

8 drinks x price of one drink + 3 bags of popcorn x price of one bag of popcorn = $ 20.50

$8 \times d + 3 \times b = 20.50$

8d + 3b = 20.50 ---- eqn 2

Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 are the system of equations that can be used to find the price of one drink and the price of one bag of popcorn

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find values of "d" and "b"

Multiply eqn 1 by 2

8d + 8b = 28 --- eqn 3

Substract eqn 2 from eqn 3

8d + 8b = 28

8d + 3b = 20.50

(-) ------------------------

5b = 7.5

b = 1.5

Substitute b = 1.5 in eqn 1

4d + 4(1.5) = 14

4d = 8

d = 2

Thus price of one drink is $ 2 and price of one bag of popcorn is $ 1.5

Answer from: Quest

$655.61 which is option c

step-by-step explanation:

price of house = $146,000

initial rate = 3.5%

mortgaged paid in this = 3.5 % of $146,000

= $\frac{3.5*146000}{100}$

=$5110

the total years would be = 7

total mortgaged paid = 7 * $5110

=$35770

remaining money = $146000-35770

=$110230

new mortgaged payment = 5 % of 110230

= $\frac{5*110230}{100}$

=$655.61
