Hi there!
To find your answer, let us see what number can go evenly into 17 and 147.
Since it looks like nothing can go into each number evenly, is already simplified down to its lowest terms and it can't go any lower than that.
Hope this helps! :D

Answer:
<u>-4 < x < -2</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the left part of the inequality :
Taking the right part of the inequality :
Solution :
Let:
x = Pounds of walnuts in the mix.
Each pound of walnuts costs $0.80. thus x pounds of walnuts cost 0.8x dollars.
Each pound of cashews costs $1.25 and the mix will contain 8 pounds of cashews, so the cost is 8*$1.25 = $10
The total cost of the mix is, therefore: 0.8x + 10 dollars.
We are also given the pound of mix costs $1.00 and we have a total of 8 + x pounds, so the total cost of the mix is 1*(8 + x) dollars.
Equating both costs:
0.8x + 10 = 1*(8 + x)
Operating:
0.8x + 10 = 8 + x
Subtracting x and 10:
0.8x - x = 8 - 10
Simplifying:
-0.2x = -2
Dividing by -0.2:
x = -2/(-0.2)
x = 10
Answer: 10 pounds
Answer:
The answer is x2 - 3x - 8.
