Emily and Lydia go to the movie theater and purchase refreshments for their friends. Emily spends a total of $78.50 on 2 bags of popcorn and 8 drinks. Lydia spends a total of $89.50 on 4 bags of popcorn and 7 drinks. Write a system of equations that can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink. Using these equations, determine and state the price of a drink, to the nearest cent.

The price of one drink is $7.5

The price of one bag of popcorn is $9.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume,

Emily spends a total of $78.50 on 2 bags of popcorn and 8 drinks.

⇒ 2x + 8y = 78.5  (1)

Lydia spends a total of $89.50 on 4 bags of popcorn and 7 drinks.

⇒ 4x + 7y = 89.5  (2)

To solve for x and y values :

Multiply eq (1) by 2 and subtract eq (2) from eq (1),

  4x + 16y = 157

- (4x + 7y = 89.5)

        9y = 67.5

⇒ y = 67.5/9

⇒ y = 7.5

∴ The price of one drink is $7.5

Substitute y = 7.5 in eq (1),

⇒ 2x + 8(7.5) = 78.5

⇒ 2x + 60 = 78.5

⇒ 2x = 78.5 - 60

⇒ 2x = 18.5

⇒ x = 18.5/2

⇒ x = 9.25

∴ The price of one bag of popcorn is $9.25

i leave the calculator work to you.

7. diameter 4 miles, circumference 4π miles

8. radius 0.2 miles, circumference 0.4π miles

[this is a bad problem because the actual radius of a car on the track is less than 0.2 miles so the answer is less than 0.4π miles]

9. radius 6 feet, circumference 12π feet

10. diameter 14 cm, circumference 14π cm

11. diameter 4.8 feet, circumference 4.8π feet
