Answer:
1.44 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question, we are told that:
The shop has 3 for 2 offer on chocolate bars going on .This means a customer can buy 2 chocolates get 1 free, for the price of 2 chocolates, a customer can get 3 chocolates.
If the price of 1 chocolate bar = 72p
2 chocolate bars =
72p × 2
= 144p
Hence, Sian spends 144p
We are asked to convert our answer to pounds
The symbol p represent pence in money form
Hence,
100p(pence) = 1 pound
144p(pence) = x
100p × x = 144p × 1
x = 144p/100p
x = 1.44 pounds
Therefore, Sian spends 1.44 pounds
Answer:
(x-3)^2=5=>
(x-3)=±square root of 5
x=+sqr.root5+3 or x=-sqr.root5+3
The answer would be 6 9/35 which would round to 6.5
I believe it is option 2, sorry if incorrect
Label each nut with a variable, c = cashews, p = peanuts.....
for a 10-pound mix, you will need c + p = 10
the price for 10-pounds would become 3.29 x 10 = 32.90
You will need an unknown amount of cashews at 5.60/lb and an unknown amount of peanuts at 2.30/lbs to get your full 10 pounds valued at 32.90
5.60c + 2.30p = 32.90
Now you 2 have a system of 2 equations and 2 unknowns
c + p = 105.6c + 2.3p = 32.9utilize substitution to solve:p = 10-c
5.6 c + 2.3 (10-c) = 32.9
solve for c then substitute back into c + p = 10 to solve for P
Hope this helps!
