Here you have two unknowns, so you would need two equations (system of equations). By using w to represent walnuts and c to represent chocolate chips your equations would be 5w + 2c = 10 and 3w + 8c = 23, the coefficients being the amount of pounds of walnuts and chocolate chips and the right hand side of the equations being the total price. From there you can either solve for one variable in terms of the other and plug in to the other equation, or you could subtract one equation from the other ( I personally prefer solving for one variable in terms of the other and then plugging in to the other equation).
X/y, y would be the 20 percent of course and x is the money earned
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute y=6 into 2x+3y=36
2x+3(6) =36
2x + 18 = 36
2x = 18
x = 9
Answer:
AB and CD are parallel lines
Step-by-step explanation:
• Parallel lines have equal slopes
• The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals
Calculate the slope m using the gradient formula
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
let (x₁, y₁ ) = A(1, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(3, 8)
m = 
= 
= 2
let (x₁, y₁ ) = C(- 1, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = D(3, 14)
m = 
= 
= 2
Since slope of AB and CD are equal then lines are parallel
The remainder is two hope I could help you
