Four cans of cat food and 3 cans of dog food cost $1.99. Four cans of the same cat food and 1 can of the same dog food cost $1.33 hat is the cost of one can of cat food

$0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use System of Equations to find out how much a can of cat food costs.

Let's use variables to represent the cat food and dog food:

x = cost of 1 cat food can

y = cost of 1 dog food can

Here are our 2 equations based on the scenarios in the question:

4x + 3y = 1.99

4x + y = 1.33

Now let's set the second equation to y using basic algebra:

4x + y = 1.33

y = -4x+1.33

And we're going to plug that value of y, which is -4x+1.33 into the first equation and solve:

4x + 3y = 1.99

4x + 3(-4x+1.33) = 1.99

4x + -12x+3.99 = 1.99

-8x + 3.99 = 1.99

-8x = -2

x = 1/4

x = 0.25

1 can of cat food costs $0.25

Hope that helps (●'◡'●)

.25

Step-by-step explanation:

set up equations

1)4c+3d=1.99

2)4c+d=1.33

Method of use:Elimination

          4c+3d=1.99

       - (4c+d)=-(1.33)

=2d=.66

divide by two on both sides to get .33 for d.

plug in

4c+.33=1.33

subtract .33 on both sides

4c=1

divide by four on both sides to get c

c=1/4 or .25

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
