We'll let x be the shortest side since it's used in both comparisons.
x + 2x + (x+26) = 178
With that equation you should be able to simplify and get each. If you have any questions about how I got that feel free to ask.

Suppose the leader of a camping trip is putting together a trail mix

Answer:

8 pounds of peanuts, 6 pounds of raisins and 6 pounds of chocolate chips

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of pounds of peanuts and y be the number of pounds of raisins and chocolate chips.

Peanuts cost $2 per pound, then x pounds cost $2x.

Raisins cost $2.50 per pound, then y pounds cost $2.50y.

Chocolate chips cost $4 per pound, then y pounds cost $4y.

In total, x+y+y=20 and those 20 pounds cost

2x+2.50y+4y=20·2.75.

Solve the system of two equations:

\left \{ {{x+2y=20} \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \atop {2x+6.5y=55}} \right.

From the first equation:

x=20-2y

Substitute x into the second equation:

2(20-2y)+6.5y=55\\ \\40-4y+6.5y=55\\ \\2.5y=15\\ \\25y=150\\ \\y=6\\ \\x=20-2\cdot 6=8

Arithmetic and Geometric Sequences (Context)
V125BC [204]

The formula for compound interest

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^ (nt)

A is the amount in the account at the end

P is the principal balance or the amount initially invested

r is the annual interest rate in decimal form

n is the number of times it is coupounded per year

t is the number of years

A = 1800 ( 1+ .0375/1) ^ (1*6)

A = 1800 ( 1.0375)^6

A = 2244.92138

Rounding to the nearest cent

A = 2244.92
