We have x = (2/5)y and x + y = 35;
then, (2/5)y + y = 35;
2y + 5y = 175;
7y = 175;
y = 27;
x = 35 - 27;
x = 8;
A) If Jackson bought 3 pounds of candies for $9.75, the prices for these candies for cents per pound is $0.0325.
Solution:
$9.75 / 3 = $3.25 / 100 cents = $0.0325

Answer:
the operation we use to convert quarts to liters : multiply
Step-by-step explanation:
One quart is approximately equal to 0.95 liter
Here quart is the larger unit and liter is the smaller unit
To convert larger unit to smaller unit we multiply
given that 1 quart = 0.95 liter
2 quart = 2 times 0.95
3 quart = 3 times 0.05
so to convert quart of liter we multiply
the operation we use to convert quarts to liters we multiply by 0.95
(2/3) - (7/12)
= .0834
or in fraction form: 1/12
