Marisol buys 3 pounds of cheese and 3 pounds of sausage for a total cost of $36 the sausage cost $2.00 less per pound than the cheese what is the combined cost of 1 pounds of cheese and 1 pound of sausage

cheese=$7

sausage=$5

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost of a pound cheese be x

that of sausage=x-$2

3x+3(x-2)=3x+3x-6

6x-6=36

6x=36+6

6x=42

x=7

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
