Jelly beans - $0.98 per pound
chocolate drops - $0.67 per pounds
Terri's bag = 2.1 pounds and $1.56

p = represents the pounds jelly beans.
c = represents the pounds in chocolate drops

p + c  = 2.1
0.98p + 0.67c = 1.56

c = 2.1 - p  ; number of pounds of chocolate drops

0.98p + 0.67(2.1 - p) = 1.56
0.98p + 1.41 - 0.67p = 1.56
0.98p - 0.67p = 1.56 - 1.41
0.31p = 0.15
p = 0.15/0.31
p = 0.48 pounds of jelly beans

c = 2.1 - 0.48
c = 1.62 pounds of chocolate drops.

Each side of the smaller square in the figure below is n inches long, and each side of the larger square is p inches longer than
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

2np + p²

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for the area of a square is A = s², where s = the length of one side of the square.  In the case of the smaller square the area would be: n x n = n².  Since the side of the larger square is 'p' inches longer, the length of one side is 'n + p'.  To find the area of the larger square, we have to take the length x length or (n +p)².

Using FOIL (forward, outside, inside, last):

(n + p)(n+p) = n² + 2np + p²

Since the area of the first triangle is n², we can subtract this amount from the area of the larger square to find out how many square inches greater the larger square area is.

n² + 2np + p² - n² = 2np + p²

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the product of its length, and height. Samantha has a rectangular prism that has a
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

V = a²b³ + acb² units³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by :

V = l×b×h

Here, l = b² units

b = aunits

h = ab+c units

So, the volume of the prism is given by :

V = b² × a × (ab+c)

= ab²(ab+c)

= a²b³ + acb²

Hence, the required volume is a²b³ + acb² units³.
