20 + 1.5 = 21.5
- 2 = 19.5
so hourly he gets paid $19.50

So:
5x*7x= 35x^2
5x*-6= -30x
7x*2= 14x
2*-6= -12
So just add it all up, combine like terms and you have your answer.
35x^2 -16x -12
Answer:
200 mg sodium is in 1 oz of chips and 50 mg sodium is in 1 cup of soda.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x mg sodium is in 1 oz of chips and and y mg is in 1 cup of soda.
∵ Bryan ate 3 oz of chips and drank 2 cups of soda for a total of 700 mg of sodium.
i.e. 3x + 2y = 700 --------(1),
Jadyn ate 1 oz of chips and drank 3 cups of soda for a total of 350 mg of sodium.
i.e. x + 3y = 350 ---------(2),
Equation (1) - 3 × equation (2),
We get,
2y - 9y = 700 - 1050
-7y = -350

From equation (1),
3x + 2(50) = 700
3x + 100 = 700
3x = 700 - 100
3x = 600

Hence, 200 mg sodium is in 1 oz of chips and 50 mg sodium is in 1 cup of soda.
Only one. These problems always have one solution unless something has changed.
