The answer to your question is: 5 bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
Process
First week
Divide 24 by 8
24/8 = 3 bottles = 1/8
but Sanjay drank 3/8 = 9 bottles
And there are 24 - 9 bottles left = 15
- Second week

15/3 = 5 then 5 bottles = 1/3
but sanjay drank 2/3 = 10 bottles
Then, there are 15 - 10 bottles left = 5
Answer:
y=5/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
P is the cost of a pound of peanuts and F is the cost of a pound of dried fruit
0.5p+0.75f=6.5
0.75p+0.25f=4.5
Rearrange
0.5p=-0.75f+6.5
Simplify
P=-1.25f+13
Substitute
0.75(-1.25f+13)+0.25f=4.5
simplify
-0.9375f+9.75+0.25f=4.5
<span>-0.6875f+9.75=4.5
</span>-0.6875f=-5.25
f=7.636364
Round
F=$<span>7.64 per pound
</span>
Plug in
0.75p+0.25(7.64)=4.5
Simplify
0.75p+<span>1.91=4.5
0.75p=</span><span>2.59
</span>p=3.453333
Round
P=$3.45 per pound of peanuts
Final
P=$3.45 per pound of peanuts
F=$7.64 per pound of dried fruit
