Answer:

Chocolate Chips cost $2.25 and Walnuts cost $3.25 per pound each

Step-by-step explanatChocion:

Let x = cost of pounds of chocolate chip cookies and y = cost of pounds of walnuts.

From the question, we get 5x+3y = 21 and 2x+6y = 24. To solve the equation, we use substitution. From the first equation, we get y = (21-5x)/3. We substitute the y into the second equation to get 2x + 6(21-5x)/3 = 24. This turns out to be 2x+(42-10x) = 24. Adding like terms you should get 42-8x = 24. Solving for x, x = $2.25 per pound. Plugging this into the first equation, we get 5(2.25)+3y = 21. Solving for y, we get $3.25 per pound of walnuts. If we plug in the numbers into the 2 equations, we will get the right total.

When do u use two number lines to compare two fractions
jeka94

Answer:

You need two number lines to compare two fractions when their denominators are different. The procedure is that you draw to segment lines of the same length but divede each line according to its denominator and then compare the place of the points that mark the fraction numbers, the line that content the marke further away from the start end will be indicate the greater fraction. For example, the fractions 3/4 and 7/10. One line will be divided inot 4 equidistant segments, and the other with 10 equidistant segments. The fraction 3/4 will be represented with 3 marks on the first line, and the fraction 7/10 will be represented with 7 marks on the second line. Now you can compare the size of the two segments marked adn decide which fraction is greater.

GOOD LUCK!

Answer:

third number = 4,

equation of y, y = 5x - 11

equation of n, n = 4x

equation of x, n + x + y =19

Step-by-step explanation:

so lets write evertything as a n equation. n + x + y =19. N is the first number, x is the second number, and y is the third number. We will write the equation for y as follows 5x - 11. N will be four times the second number, so 4x. If substitute the values for out equation for x we will find what x equals to. So (4x) + x + (5x - 11) = 19

10x = 30

x = 3.

Then you substiute the answer for x in the equation for y. This will get you 5(3) - 11

15 - 11

4 = third number

How do you show the work for 1/8 doubled
balu736 [363]
If you draw a rectangle divided up into eight even parts, and label them each as 1/8, then you can show your work for how you double it. You do this by "coloring" one in, and then doing the same for a second piece (but color that one in a different way). You can visually double an eighth in that way.

Or, you can simply multiply by 2 to double 1/8:
1/8x2/1=2/8
