A candy store sells 8 pound bags of mixed almonds and cashews. If c pounds of cashews are in a bag,...
c=1 was already given as described. The store sells pound bags.
The rest of the description and question seem not to match. Maybe each bag contains 8 pounds of the two nuts. Eight pounds and some of this is of cashews. Now, c is how many pounds of cashews in one bag.

p=2.59%2Ac%2B1.72%288-c%29
You want to know the quantity of cashews if p=18.11 dollars per bag.
2.59c%2B1.72%2A8-1.72c=p
2.59c-1.72c=p-1.72%2A8
%282.59-1.72%29c=p-1.72%2A8
0.87c=p-13.76
Y>3 only rules out B. B,D,E,F all satisfy 2x<y. So
ANSWER: D E F
The formula to find the rate of change is y2-y1/x2-x1
6-(-4)/-3-(-1)
=10/-2
=-5
Answer: i would say probably 3 or -3
I hope it helps
