Step-by-step explanation:
that is totally simple.
the area of a parallelogram is
baseline × height
basically the same as for a rectangle, just that in this more general form the height is no longer the other side.
in our case here
18×13 = 234 cm²
A candy store sells 8 pound bags of mixed almonds and cashews. If c pounds of cashews are in a bag,...
c=1 was already given as described. The store sells pound bags.
The rest of the description and question seem not to match. Maybe each bag contains 8 pounds of the two nuts. Eight pounds and some of this is of cashews. Now, c is how many pounds of cashews in one bag.
-
p=2.59%2Ac%2B1.72%288-c%29
You want to know the quantity of cashews if p=18.11 dollars per bag.
2.59c%2B1.72%2A8-1.72c=p
2.59c-1.72c=p-1.72%2A8
%282.59-1.72%29c=p-1.72%2A8
0.87c=p-13.76
When rearranging or transposing an equation, you always have to try and get the letter you want on its own by doing the opposite of each step on both sides. In this case it is g:
p= 5gh
Because g is being multiplied by 5 and h, you'd want to divide by 5 and h to get g on its own: (division is represented by the slashes / ).
p= 5gh/5h
Now you can cross off 5h completely from the right side of the equation because they cancel out.
p/5h = g
Because you did that, you have to do it on the other side too so that is why it is P/5h on the left.
So g = p divided by 5h.
Hope that helped!!!
