Tony Owens a special pet store that sells only snacks and elephants currently he has a total of 11 snacks and elephants in stock
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:  There are 8 snake and 3 elephants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Number of snakes

y= Number of elephants

We know that , snake has no legs elephant has 4 legs.

Then, Total animals = x+y=11  (i)

Total legs = 4y = 12

⇒ y=3   .. (ii)[divide both sides by 4]

Substitute value of y from (ii) in (i) , we get

x+3=11\Rightarrow\ x=8

Hence, there are 8 snake and 3 elephants.

Leyan bought 234 pounds of apples for $1.32 per pound, 112 pounds of peaches for $1.20 per pound, and some tomatoes, all from a
velikii [3]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question isn't well written and that 234 was meant to be 2.34 and 112 was meant to be 1.12

Let the amount spent on tomatoes be x.

The information given in the question can then be used to form an equation as thus:

Apples + Peaches + Tomatoes = $9.63

(2.34 × $1.32) + (1.12 × $1.20) + x = $9.63

$3.0888 + $1.344 + x = $9.63

x = $9.63 - ($3.0888 + $1.344)

x = $9.63 - $4.4328

x = $5.1972

The amount spent on tomatoes will be $5.1972
