Answer:
- Walnuts - $1.25, chocolate chips - $3.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let walnuts = x, chocolate chips = y
<u>Set a system and solve:</u>
<u>Double the first equation and subtract the second one from it:</u>
- 6x + 10y - 6x - 2y = 40 - 14
- 8y = 26
- y = 26/8
- y = 3.25
<u>Find the value of x:</u>
- 6x + 3.25*2 = 14
- 6x = 14 - 6.5
- 6x = 7.5
- x = 7.5/6
- x = 1.25
Answer: $34.50
Step-by-step explanation
If you multiply .75=3/4 x 10 it will will be 7.50 so 10x 3.45= 34.50 or 7.50 x 3.45= 25.875
25.875/.75 = $34.50
