So this is a lot of work but ghe answers are (fix)
Translating this word problem into an algebraic equation, we get:
3x - 2/5 = 8/5.
Let's combine the constants: adding 2/5 to both sides of this equation yields
3x = 10/5, or 3x = 2.
Solving for x: x = 2/3
Answer: multply
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4 bags of chocolate chips and 1 bag of walnuts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find how many ounces are in 3 pounds:
16 oz = 1 lb
16 oz × 3 = 3 lbs
48 oz = 3 lbs
Variable x = number of chocolate chips
Variable y = number of walnuts
4x + 1y = 15
Keep in mind it must equal up to 48 oz and be $15 or under.
4 bags × 12 oz = 48 oz
1 bag × 4 oz = 4 oz
48 oz + 4 oz = 52 oz > 48 oz
4 bags × $3 = $12
1 bag × $2 = $2
$12 + $2 = $14 < $15
Both requirements have been met.
