Answer:

let cost of each pound of trail mix be x any y respectively

For 2 pounds of trail mix and 5 pounds of jelly beans, the total cost is $10

2x +5y = 10.....(1)

For 8 pounds of trail mix and 3 pounds of jelly beans, the total cost is $23

8x +3y = 23.....(2)

2x +5y= 10 ....... × 4

8x +20y = 40.....(3)

8x +3y = 23 ( from (2))

(3) - (2)

17y = 17

y= 1

8x +3y = 23

8x +3 = 23

8x= 20

x= 2.5

Cost for each pound of trail mix= $2.5

Cost for each pound of jelly beans= $1

You plant a garden in the shape of a triangle as shown in the figure. What is the perimeter of the garden? Find the values of x
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

x = 42°

y = 69°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Given triangle is an isosceles triangle.

Therefore, two sides will be equal and measure 8 yd.

Measure of 3rd side of the triangle = 6 yd

Perimeter of the garden = 8 + 8 + 6

                                        = 22 yd

In an isosceles triangle, opposite angles of the equal sides will be equal.

Therefore, y = 69°

By the property of interior angles of a triangle,

x° + y° + 69° = 180°

x° + 69° + 69° = 180°

x = 180 - 138

x = 42°
