Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55
We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55
We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
2y-20y=13.50-70.2
-18y=-56.7
y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
x+5*3.15=17.55
x+15.75=17.55
x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
Problem 4.
Let w = number of wood bats sold
Let m = number of metal bats sold
From sales information we have: w + m = 23
24w+30m=606
Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second.
24*(23-m)+30m=606
552-24m+30m=606
6m=54
m=9 = number of metal bats sold
Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.

2,2,2,2,3,5,7,9,9,10,11,12,18 find the median
Natasha2012 [34]
Answer:
median = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The median is the middle value of the data set arranged in ascending order
2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12, 18
↑ middle value
median = 7
Answer:if it’s a pretest just guess you don’t need to get it right
Step-by-step explanation:
FG = FE
3n - 4 = n + 8
2n = 12
n = 6
FG = 3(6) - 4
FG = 18 - 4
FG = 14
answer
14
