Carla cut the 8 in half to make four, so the same <span />
The cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t = cost/pound of trail mix
Let j = cost/pound of jelly beans
5t + 6j = 35
3t + 2j = 15 = > 2j = 15 - 3t
5t + 3(15 - 3t) = 35
5t + 45 - 9t = 35
- 4t + 45 = 35
- 4t = - 10
4t = 10
t = 2.5
3(2.5) + 2j = 15
7.5 + 2j = 15
2j = 7.5
j = 3.75
Y intercept is 4
Slope is 5x
Answer:
x=25
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=100 (y being number of 8¢ stamps)
12x+ 8y = 900
-----------------------------------
y = 100-x
12x + 8y = 900
----------------------------------------
12x + 8(100-x) = 900
12x + 800 - 8x = 900
12x - 8x = 900 - 800
4x = 100
x=25
