Answer:
The jelly beans cost $2.25 / pound
The trail mix costs $1.25 / pound
Step-by-step explanation:
Let +a+ = cost/pound of jelly beans
Let +b+ = cost/pound of trail mix
(1) 6a + 2b =16
(2) 3a + 5b =13
Multiply both sides by 2
and subtract (1) from (2)
(2) 6a -2b = -16
(1) -6a -2b = -16
8b=10
b=1.25
and
(1) 6a+2b=16
(1) +3a+b=8
(1) 3a+1.25=8
(1) +3a=6.75
(1) a=2.25

Answer:
0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Price of an item = X dollars
Discount = 20%
Amount of discount = 20% of Price of item
Amount of discount = \frac{20}{100}*X=0.2X10020∗X=0.2X
Price of item after discount = Price of item - Amount of discount
Price of item after discount = X-0.2X = 0.8X dollars
The discount price will be 0.8x dollars
