X = price of the ingredients
so based on the proportion , we can write that :
Almonds needed = x = $ 12 x
peanut needed = 2x = 2x * $ 8 = $ 16x
raisins needed = 3x = 3x * $6 = $ 18x
Equation =
12x + 16x + 18x ≤ $ 23
46x = $23
x = $ 0.5
The pound of mix he can made :
0.5 * 1 pound of almond + 0.5 x * 2 pound of peanuts + 0.5 * 3 pound of raisins
= 3 Pound of mix
Answer: X = -1 and Y = 3
—————————————
X + Y = 2
X = 2 - Y
————————
Y = x + 4
Y = 2 - Y + 4
2Y = 2 + 4
2Y = 6
Y = 3
————————
X + Y = 2
X + 3 = 2
X = -1
Answer:
Im going to answer your question in the next note.
This is supposed to be a question…????
The answer to the question is
3x+2=3x-2
