Answer: B) x + y = 17
1.60x + 2.45y = 34
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of x = $1.60 per pound
Cost of y = $2.45 per pound
Total pounds of x and y = 17
Cost per pound of mixture = $2
Total number of pounds of the mixture :
x + y = 17
Since the cost per pound of the mixture = 2
Hence ;
(Cost of x * number of pounds of x) + (Cost of y * number of pounds of y)
(1.60 * x) + (2.45 * y) = (cost per pound of mixture * total number of pounds of the mixture)
1.60x + 2.45y = 2 * 17
1.60x + 2.45y = 34
Answer:
First, keep the first number, Second, change the operation from subtraction to addition, Next, get the opposite sign of the second number (known as the subtrahend) and Lastly, proceed with the regular addition of integers.
Step-by-step explanation:
4x^2 - 2xy^2
5xy^2 +
3x^2y
_____________
12x^5y^4-2xy^2
This is so because 4+5+3 is 12, then using laws of indices to add your x and y you get x^5 and y^4
To simplify your answer to the lowest you have it in the form of
3x^2y^2(4x^2y - 2xy^2)
If you multiply this as well you get the same answer I got with the addition
