Let the cost of one pound of candy be x and one pound of mint be y.

3x+2y=10.8 a 
x+3y = 5.35  b 
 B*3 = 3x+9y = 16.05 b
 
b-a = 7y = 16.05-10.8= 5.25
           y = 5.25/7 = 0.75 

The cost per pound of mints is $0.75

Answer: C) Tracy spends $7 every 4 days

Graphing the function as well as x = 4 will show that there is a difference in the y-value of 7 between x=0 and x=4, meaning she spends $7 every 4 days.

4x-30=2x+50
+30 +30

4x=2x+80
-2x -2x

2x=80
/2 /2

X=40

4(40)-30=130°

2(40)+50=130°

180-130=50°

1kg = 2.205 lbs

Or 5.4lb = 5.4/2.205
= 2.44 kgs
Thus, this package will weigh 2.44 kgs
