Jackson sold 27 pounds of bananas and 12 pounds of grapes.
Given that Jackson runs a farm stand that sells bananas and grapes, and each pound of bananas sells for $ 1 and each pound of grapes sells for $ 2.25, and Jackson sold 15 more pounds of bananas than pounds of grapes and made $ 54 altogether, to determine the number of pounds of bananas sold and the number of pounds of grapes sold the following calculation must be performed:
- 25 x 1 + 10 x 2.25 = 25 + 22.50 = 47.50
- 26 x 1 + 11 x 2.25 = 26 + 24.75 = 50.75
- 27 x 1 + 12 x 2.25 = 27 + 27 = 54
Therefore, Jackson sold 27 pounds of bananas and 12 pounds of grapes.

Answer:
Rule: If working with an inequality and you either mult. or div. by a negative number, you must reverse the direction of the inequality symbol.
Step-by-step explanation:
Your job here is to simplify 9t-4>32, in which the variable (t) is already positive. Here you do NOT switch signs or reverse the direction of the inequality symbol. Adding 4 to both sides, we get 9t > 36, or t > 4.
If, however, you had -9t-4>32 to work with, the situation would be different because t in this inequality is negative. Adding 4 to both sides results in:
-9t > 36. To solve for t, we must divide both sides by -9 AND reverse the direction of the inequality symbol:
t < -4.
Rule: If working with an inequality and you either mult. or div. by a negative number, you must reverse the direction of the inequality symbol.
The answer is B.
