X - pounds of the M&M`s;
y - pounds of the peanuts
x + y = 30
3 x + 2 y = 74
----------------------
y = 30 - x
3 x + 2 ( 30 - x ) = 74
3 x + 60 - 2 x = 74
x = 74 - 60
x = 14
Answer:
They bought 14 pounds of M&M`s.

suter [353]

Answer: 38

Step-by-step explanation:

3.8=19/5

u have to flip the reciprocal to divide by fraction so 1/10 will be just 10

Then u get 19/5 x 10

You can reduce the GCF so it would be 19 x 2

19 x 2 = 38

Or you can plug it into your calculator (3.8 x .1)

The answer is 15 because absolute deviation means a number of units a certain number is for 0. So, both 15 and -15 would have an absolute deviation of 15 because both numbers are 15 units away from 0. Hope I helped! Please rate me the Brainliest!
