Answer:

8 pounds of cheaper candy,

17.5 pounds of expensive candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define some variables. Let's say the amount of pounds of candy that sells for $2.20/lb is x, and the $7.30 is y. Now we can write some equations!

x + y = 25.5

\frac{2.2x + 7.3y}{25.5} = 5.7

We can start substitution. We can say that x = 25.5 - y. Plugging this into our second equation, we get:

y = 17.5

Plugging this in, we find that:

x = 8.

Bess [88]

Answer:

7x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2 + 2x - 10

Rearrange terms:

5x + 2x - 10 + 2

Combine like terms (add 2x and 5x):

= 7x - 10 + 2

Combine like terms (add -10 and 2):

= 7x - 8 (This is the simplified form).
