Claire went into a movie theater and bought 9 bags of popcorn and 2 pretzels, costing a total of $80. Melanie went into the same movie theater and bought 7 bags of popcorn and 4 pretzels, costing a total of $72. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the price of each bag of popcorn and the price of each pretzel. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

9x+2y=80

7x+4y=72

-

x=popcorn

y=pretzels

intensity of the vector is v= √37 ≈ 6.08 units and make angle ∡α ≈ 9.46° with east direction

step-by-step explanation:

required vector is consists of the two componentsvx= 2+4=6 units   and vy= 1 unit and vx ⊥ vywe will use pythagorian theorem to find intensity of the vector vv∧2 = vx∧2 + vy∧2 => v = √vx∧2 + vy∧2 = √6∧2 + 1∧2 = √36+1 = √37 ≈ 6.08 unitsthe angle ∡α between vector and east direction we wil find with tanαtanα = 1/6 => α = arc tanα = arc 1/6 => α ≈ 9.46°

hope this
