6 plates and 5 cups cost 23.80 dollars. 7 plates and 6 cups cost 28.00 dollars. Each plate costs the same amount as the other plates, each cup costs the same amount as the other cups. What is the cost of one plate? What is the cost of 1 cup?

c = $1.4

p = $2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

two equations can be derived from the question

6p + 5c = 23.80 equation 1

7p + 6c = 28  equation 2

p = plates

c - cups

multiply equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 6

42p + 35c = 166.60  equation 3

42p + 36c = 168  equation 4

subtract equation 3 from 4

c = 1.4

substitute for c in equation 1

6p + 5(1.4)  = 23.80

p = (23.80 - 7) / 6

p = 2.8

d 25 pi/6

step-by-step explanation:

the diameter is 10 inches

the radius is 1/2 of the diameter or 5 inches

the area of the circle is

a = pi r^2

  = pi 5^2

  = 25 pi

the slice is 60 degrees of the entire circle.

60 degrees out of 360   60/360 = 1/6

the area of the slice is 1/6 of the circle

a slice = 1/6 a circle

a slice = 1/6 * 25 pi
