If you set you the equations such as 3c+5w=23 and 6c+2w=20 and then solve the first equation for c, you get c= (23-5w)/3 Taking that equation and substituting it for 'c' in the second equation (so the second equation becomes: 6((23-5w)/3)+2w=20  ) you get w=3.25 If you plug that back into your first equation (so it now becomes: 3c+5(3.25)=23 ) you get c=2.25 So the answer would be walnuts cost $3.25 per lb and choc. chips cost $2.25 per lb.

Crickets can jump with a vertical velocity of up to 14 ft/s. Which equation models the height of such a jump, in feet, after t s
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

h = 147 - 16t^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the following equation of motion

h = ut + 1/2 gt^2    where  h = height, u = initial velocity , g = acceleration due to gravity and t = the time.

So here we have:

h = 14t + 1/2 * -32 * t^2

h = 14t - 16t^2
