Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem.

The sum of angles on a straight line is 180°.

( R ) and ( 2x + 5 ) are both on the same straight line.

Therefore:

Equation No. 1 -

R + 2x + 5 = 180

R = 180 - 2x - 5

R = 175 - 2x

Vertically opposite angles are equivalent to each other.

( R ) is vertically opposite ( 3x + 15 ).

Therefore:

Equation No. 2 -

R = 3x + 15

Substitute the value of ( R ) from the first equation into the second equation to solve for ( x )

R = 3x + 15

175 - 2x = 3x + 15

- 2x - 3x = 15 - 175

- 5x = - 160

x = - 160 / - 5

x = 160 / 5

x = 32

Next we will substitute the value of ( x ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( R ).

Equation No. 2 -

R = 175 - 2x

R = 175 - 2 ( 32 )

R = 175 - 64

R = 111

FINAL ANSWER:

Therefore, the answer is:

R = 111

x = 32

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

The system don't have a unique solution

Step-by-step explanation:

We define the problem in different variables:

Dried Fruit is going to be x

Almonds are going to be y

So, in this new terms we have that a small bag (S) and a large bag ( L) are going to be represented by:

3x+4y=S
4 $\frac{1}{2}$ x+6y=L

If we multiply both sides of the first equation by 1.5 we got this:

4 $\frac{1}{2}$ x+6y=1.5S
4 $\frac{1}{2}$ x+6y=L

Therefore we can notice that the system of equations has an unlimited number of soltions because is a consistent and dependent system.
