Answer 2

Answer:

Option A and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Venetta buys 2 pounds of pistachios and 3 pounds of almonds for $48.

The cost of pistachios $4 more per pound than the almonds.

Let the cost of almonds be a

Therefore, cost of pistachios p = 4 + a ------(1)

Venetta bought 2 pound of pistachios and 3 pounds of almonds for $48, so the equation will be

2p + 3a = 48 -----------(2)    [we will substitute equation 1]

2(4+a) + 3a = 48 --------------(3)

(2 × 4) + (2 × a) + 3a = 48

2a + 3a + 8 = 48

5a + 8 = 48

5a = 48 - 8

5a = 40

a = 40/5

a = 8

hence the cost of almonds are $8 per pound.

the cost of pistachios is 4 + 8 = $12 per pound.

Option A and C is the correct answer.
