On a recent trip to the convenience store you picked up 2 gallons of milk five bottles of water and eight snack size bags of chips your total was $25 if a bottle of water cost twice as much as a bag of chips and a gallon of milk cost $1.50 more than a bottle of water how much does each item cost

2 milks + 5 waters + 8 chips = $25

water cost = 2×chips cost

milk cost = $1.50 + water cost

The cost of each: milk, water, chips.

Let m, w, and c represent the costs of milk, water, and chips, respectively. We can write the given relations more compactly as

... 2m + 5w + 8c = 25

... w = 2c

... m = w + 1.5

We can substitute for w everywhere using the second equation. This gives us

... m = 2c +1.5

... 2(2c+1.5) + 5(2c) + 8(c) = 25

... 22c + 3 = 25

... 22c = 22

... c = 1

Then

... m = 2·1 + 1.5 = 3.5

... w = 2·1 = 2

A gallon of milk costs $3.50, a bottle of water costs $2.00, a bag of chips costs $1.00.

15% chance.

step-by-step explanation:

3/10 times, the 5 year old will get a tablet. 5/10 times, the 13 yer old will get a tablet. multiply both fractions to get 15/100 times, both would have a tablet.

step-by-step explanation:

because 1/3 is a fraction. we can tell because there is a divisor symbol between the 1 and the 3. if we were to add 2 fractions together, we would add the numerators, which is the number on top, but not the denominators, which is the number on the bottom

1/3+1/3=2/3

hope this !
