It will be $2.50 for each pound of walnuts, and it will be $1 for each pound of chocolate chips.

I know this hold true because when we multiply $2.50 by 2, we get $5, and add that to the other $5 from the chocolate chips and we will get $10. We can also multiply $2.50 by 8 and add $3 from chocolate chips to get $20 + $3, or $23.

1.  2w+5c=10
2.  8w+3c=23
Simplify the first equation: w=(10-5c)/2
Substitute: 8((10-5c)/2)+3c=23
Simplify:(80-40c)/2+3c=23
40-20c+3c=23,
17c=17, 1 pound of chocolate chips is $1
Substitute: 2w+5=10, 1 pound of walnuts is $2.50

Alla [95]

Answer:

Yes, he earned a Varsity letter because he played in 61% of the games.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the percent of games he played out of the total, we can do it by dividing the games he played by the total of games and multiply this by 100% to get the percent of games he played:

\frac{11}{18}*100%

We solve:

0.611111*100% = 61.11%

So we know that he earned a letter because he played in 61.11% of the games, more than he needed.
