Answer:

  • 3 pounds at $3.87
  • 19 pounds at $0.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of high-priced jelly beans sold. Then the total revenue was ...

  3.87x + 0.94(22 -x) = 29.47

  2.93x + 20.68 = 29.47 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  2.93x = 8.79 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  subtract 20.68

  x = 3  . . . . . . . . . divide by 2.93

3 pounds of $3.87 jelly beans were sold; 19 pounds of $0.94 jelly beans were sold.

Solve the equation: 2+3x=4+x(2+x)
grandymaker [24]
2 + 3x = 4 + 2x + x^2
x^2 - x + 2 = 0

(x - 0.5)^2 - 0.25 + 2 = 0

(x - 0.5)^2 = -1.75

x - 0.5 = +/- sqrt 1.75 * i

x = 0.5 + 1.32i  ,  0.5 - 1.32i  answer
