Answer:
A bag of chips costs $1
A pickle costs $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
P + 2c = 3.25 Start with these two equations
3p + 4c = 7.25
p = -2c + 3.25 Solve for one variable
3(-2c +3.25) + 4c = 7.25 Substitute
-6c + 9.75 + 4c = 7.25
-2c = -2
c = 1
p + 2(1) = 3.25 Substitute
p + 2 = 3.25
p = 1.25
Answer:
6 watermelon
Step-by-step explanation:
4+2=6
1 1/9
To figure out how much walnuts to a pound of dried fruit you’d need to do proportions. So we cross multiply:
2/3 = X
—————- —————-
3/5 = 1
You multiply diagnols 2/3 x 1 = 2/3
3/5 times x is 3/5x.
2/3 = 3/5x. Isolate the variable. Divide 3/5 on both sides cancel out 3/5. 2/3 divide by 3/5 is 2/3 x 5/3 which is 10/9 which equals 1 1/9.
So for 1 lb of dried fruit you need 1 1/9 lb of walnuts to maintain the same mixture
