Step-by-step explanation:

taking that blank as x

5/2 -x = 1/3

the x will go to the right hand side of the equation which then would make it positive ( making x the subject) and 1/3 will come to the left hand side of the equation becoming -1/3

so the equation will become 5/2-1/3=x

solving the fraction then gives 13/6 or 2.17 as the value of x

<h3>What is a system of inequalities?</h3>

A system of inequalities is when two or more variables are related, and inequalities are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are given as follows:

Variable x: number of chocolate chips purchased.

Variable y: number of pecans sold.

Chocolate chips are $2 per pound and pecans are $5 per pound. She wants to spend at most $25, hence:

$2x + 5y \leq 25$

Answer:

$a {}^{2} + b {}^{2} = c {}^{2} \\ b {}^{2} = \sqrt{c {}^{2} - a {}^{2} } \\ b = \sqrt{14 {}^{2} - 3 {}^{2} } \\ b = \sqrt{196 - 9} \\ b = \sqrt{187} \\ b = 13.7$
