a nut mixture of peanuts and macadamia nuts at a small fair is $1.00 per pound of peanuts and $3.26 per pound of macadamia nuts.

over the entire day, 131 pounds of the nut mixture were sold for $248.52. If p is the number peanuts and n is the number of macadamia nuts, then the system of equations that model this scenario is

This answer seems really hard but just don't overthink it. You pretty much don't have to do any math. It took me forever to do this because I was thinking so hard but i re-read it and the answer was right infront of me.

1.00p + 3.26n = $248.52

Answer:

  • n + p = 131
  • 3.26n + 1.00p = 248.52

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations refers to having more than one equations to solve more than one variable with.

The first equation is just using the weight of the nuts. Knowing that a total of 131 pounds of nuts were sold, and that the total weight is the sum of the weight of macadamias(n) and peanuts(p):

<em>n + p = 131</em>

The second equation is using the price of the nuts. Knowing that a total $248.52 was made, and that the total is the sum of the money made from macadamias and peanuts:

<em>3.26n + 1.00p = 248.52</em>

1.) Which system of equations below give the solution (-1,-2)?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

y = -x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in -1 for <em>x</em><em> </em>and your result will come out to 1 because of that double negative [-(-1) = 1]. Next, deduct 3 from 1 to get -2.

I will give you literally 40 points if you answer this. In a stadium, there are 31 chairs in the first row and 37 in the second
lianna [129]

A) 1st Row = 31 seats

    2nd row = 37 seats

     3rd row = 37+6 = 43 seats

     4th row = 43+6 = 49 seats

      5th row = 49+6 = 55 seats


B) The formula for finding the number of seats in any row number is:

Number of seats in nth row = 31 + (n-1) *6


C)  To find the row with 103 seats,  set the equation in B to equal 103 and solve for n:

103 = 31 + (n-1)*6

Subtract 31 from each side:

72 = (n-1)*6

Divide both sides by 6:

12 = n-1

add 1 to each side:

n = 13


The 13th row has 103 seats.

find the equation for the line passing through the point (-2,4) and parallel to the line whose equation is y=3x+11
ycow [4]

Answer: y = 3x+10

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

The line y = 3x+11 is in slope intercept form y = mx+b where m = 3 is the slope. Anything parallel to this line will also have a slope of 3. Let's plug in m = 3 and (x,y) = (-2,4) which is the point this parallel line goes through.

y = mx+b

y = 3x+b ... replace m with 3

4 = 3(-2)+b ... replace x with -2; replace y with 4

4 = -6+b

4+6 = -6+b+6 ... add 6 to both sides

10 = b

b = 10

Since m = 3 and  b = 10, this means that y = mx+b turns into y = 3x+10

X + 6 = −x − 6<br> (so i can ask)kjhgfdccfghjk
ratelena [41]

Answer:

<em>x = -6</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Solve the equation:

x + 6 = -x - 6

We must find the value of x that makes the identity above true.

Let's join all the variables on the left side and the numbers on the right side.

Adding x:

x + 6 + x = -x - 6 + x

The variables cancel out on the right side:

2x + 6 = -6

Subtracting 6:

2x + 6 - 6 = -6 -6

The 6 and -6 are canceled out:

2x = -12

Dividing by 2:

x = -12/2

x = -6
