Answer:
The number of pounds of cashew is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P represent the peanut
Let C represent the cashew nut.
From question, we were told that Elijah brought a total of 16 pounds of peanuts and cashew nuts. This can be written as:
P + C = 16 (1)
The total cost = $49.50
Cost per peanut = $2.75
Cost per cashew = $3.25
The above can be represented as:
49.50 = 2.75P + 3.25C. (2)
From equation 1,
P + C = 16
P = 16 — C
Substitute the value of P into equation 2:
49.50 = 2.75P + 3.25C.
49.50 = 2.75(16 — C) + 3.25C
49.50 = 44 — 2.75C + 3.25C
49.50 = 44 + 0.5C
Collect like terms
49.50 — 44 = 0.5C
5.5 = 0.5C
Divide both side by 0.5
C = 5.5/0.5
C = 11
Therefore, the number of pounds of cashew is 11
If width is w the length can be represented as 5/2+2w.
Formula for perimeter is 2l + 2w
So it would be 2w + 2(5/2 + 2w)
OR 2w + 5 + 4w
OR 6w + 5
See if this helps ;)
Write a proportion like so:
4 gallons/30 plants= x gallons/45 plants
Cross multiply to find the value of x
4*45= 180
180/30= 6=x
Final answer: 6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:
you look on the starting point and the ending point of the y-axis ( you always start with the smallest value)
