Answer:

  • 6 3-lb bags
  • 2 1-lb bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 3-lb bags purchased. Then the total purchase was ...

  $2(8 -x) +$5.50(x) = $37

  16 +3.50x = 37 . . . . . . . . . divide by $, collect terms

  3.50x = 21 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 16

  21/3.50 = x = 6 . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

You bought 6 3-lb bags of peanuts and 2 1-lb bags.

Solve<br> F = C + 32 for C
muminat
To solve an equation for a variable, you must isolate the variable on either side of the equation. To do this, simply subtract 32 from both sides of the original equation:

F ( – 32 ) = C + 32 ( – 32 )
F – 32 = C

We have proven that C is equal to (F – 32). This equation (bold) is the answer to your problem.

I hope this helps!
