Answer:
- 20 taffy bags and 15 caramel candy bags
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- t = the number of taffy bags
- c = the number of caramel bags
- Number of taffy's are 5 more than caramel bags
- Taffy bags weigh 8 ounces and caramel bags weigh 16 ounces
- Total weight is 400 ounces
<u>Equations:</u>
- t = c + 5 (the difference in number of bags)
- 8t + 16c = 400 (the weight of the bags)
<u>Simplify the second equation by dividing all terms by 8:</u>
<u>Substitute t and solve for c:</u>
- c + 5 + 2c = 50
- 3c = 50 - 5
- 3c = 45
- c = 45/3
- c = 15
<u>Find the value of t:</u>
<u>Answer:</u>
- 20 taffy bags and 15 caramel candy bags
Answer:
8 that is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there :)
( a + b )( a² - ab + b² )
Let us distribute ( a + b )
a ( a² ) + a ( - ab ) + a ( b² ) + b ( a² ) + b ( - ab ) + b ( b² )
a³ - a²b + ab² + a²b - ab² + b³
We can simplify further:
- a²b + a²b = 0
ab² - ab² = 0
a³ + b³
You can see in the picture I have attached that this is the
7th formula
You just take the difference between them and the answer is 1 3/5
