We need to start from the innermost parenthesis and work our way out.
The first parenthesis is 
. These are not like terms because one involves a variable, while the other is a constant term. Two terms are summable if they involve the same power(s) of the same variable(s).
So, we can take one step outwards, and we arrive to the square brackets. We have
and 2z and -13z are like terms, so we can sum them:
Finally we arrive to the whole expression, which is
Because, again, 5z and 11z were like terms.
Answer:
$6.50 per bag of popcorn
Step-by-step explanation:
let a bag of popcorn be represented by p and a candy bar be b
28p + 40b= $282
17p + 20b= $160.50
this is an example of stimatanelous equations
so you have to double the second equation to give 34p + 40b =$321
subtract the equations to give one
6p =$39
divide $39 by 6 to give the value of one bag of popcorn = $6.50
