Vanessa can make 5 portions
Using row 4:
<span>coefficients are: 1, 4, 6, 4, 1 </span>
<span>a^4 + a^3b + a^2b^2 + ab^3 + b^4 </span>
<span>Now adding the coefficients: </span>
<span>1a^4 + 4a^3b + 6a^2b^2 + 4ab^3 + 1b^4 </span>
<span>Substitute a and b: </span>
<span>a = 4x </span>
<span>
b = -3y </span>
<span>1(4x)^4 + 4(4x)^3(-3y) + 6(4x)^2(-3y)^2 + 4(4x)(-3y)^3 + 1(-3y)^4 </span>
<span>Now simplify the above: </span>
<span>256x^4 - 768x^3y + 864x^2y^2 - 432xy^3 + 81y^4 </span>
Answer:
a type nut is 10 pounds
a different one is 14 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
let a type of the nut be represented by t
Let a different one be represented by d
a type of nut cost $7 per pound
a different one cost $4.20 per pound
The cost of the mixture for 24 pounds = 5.37 * 24
= $128.88
t + d = 24 ........(1)
7t + 4.2d = 128.88 ..........(2)
From equation (1), t = 24 - d
Put t = 24 - d in equation 2
7(24 - d) + 4.2d = 128.88
168 - 7d + 4.2d = 128.88
168 - 2.8d = 128.88
-2.8d = 128.88 - 168
-2.8d = -39.12
d = -39.12 / -2.8
d= 13.97
d = 14 pounds
t = 24 - d
t = 24 - 14
t = 10 pounds
A type nut is 10 pounds. A different one is 14 pounds
