Jelly beans - $0.98 per pound
chocolate drops - $0.67 per pounds
Terri's bag = 2.1 pounds and $1.56
p = represents the pounds jelly beans.
c = represents the pounds in chocolate drops
p + c = 2.1
0.98p + 0.67c = 1.56
c = 2.1 - p ; number of pounds of chocolate drops
0.98p + 0.67(2.1 - p) = 1.56
0.98p + 1.41 - 0.67p = 1.56
0.98p - 0.67p = 1.56 - 1.41
0.31p = 0.15
p = 0.15/0.31
p = 0.48 pounds of jelly beans
c = 2.1 - 0.48
c = 1.62 pounds of chocolate drops.
4) 10% or 1/10
5) 24% or 6/25
6) 34% or 17/50
8) 8% of 2/25
Solve for z
3z+4=34
Subtract 4 from both sides.
= 3z=30
Divide both sides by 3
z=10
Hope I helped! :D
