Probably infinite depending on if u mean how many factors it has
Let
x = pounds of peanuts
y = pounds of cashews
z = pounds of Brazil nuts.
The total pounds is 50, therefore
x + y + z = 50 (1)
The total cost is $6.60 per pound for 50 pounds of mixture.
The total is equal to the sum of the costs of the different nuts.
Because the cost for peanuts, cashews, and Brazil nuts are $3, $10, and $9 respectively, therefore
3x + 10y + 9z = 50*6.8
3x + 10y + 9z = 340 (2)
There are 10 fewer pounds of cashews than peanuts, therefore
x = y + 10 (3)
Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
y + 10 + y + z = 50
2y + z = 40 (4)
3(y + 10) + 10y + 9z = 340
13y + 9z = 310 (5)
From (4),
z = 40 - 2y (6)
Substitute (6) into (5).
13y + 9(40 - 2y) = 310
-5y = -50
y = 10
z = 40 - 2y = 40 - 20 = 20
x = y + 10 = 20
Answer:
Peanuts: 20 pounds
Cashews: 10 pounds
Brazil nuts: 20 pounds
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you must distribute the 2x to the numbers inside the parentheses
(2x * x) + (2x * -1) = 3
- 2x = 3
To make this a quadratic equation you can solve bring the 3 over to the left side of the equation by subtracting it to both sides
- 2x - 3 = 0
Use the quadratic equation to solve this (image of the quadratic equation is below)
Remember that quadratic functions are set up like so:
That means that in this equation...
a = 2
b = -2
c = -3
^^^Plug these numbers into the quadratic equation and solve...
Keep in mind that +/- is ±
