Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both equations give y in terms of x, equate the right sides
3x - 28 = - 2x + 22 ( add 2x to both sides )
5x - 28 = 22 ( add 28 to both sides )
5x = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 10
The garden's width is 45. We know this because

(length)

35x2 is 70 and you need to neutralize that by taking away 70 from both sides.


Now divide by 2 on both sides to neutralize the 2 times x.

meaning that leaves us with
33/16 I’m sorry if it’s wrong
To solve, divide the dollars by the pounds of peanuts to find the cost per pound:

So, it cost $1.50 per pound of peanuts.
Hope this helps!
