Answer:

Susanna bought 3 pounds of candies and 5 pounds of mixed nuts

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent Nuts with N and Candies with C

For Amount:

3N + 4C = 27

For Weights:

N + C =8

Required

Solve for N and C

Make N the subject in the second equation

N=8 - C

Substitute 8 - C for N in the first equation.

3N + 4C = 27

3(8 - C) + 4C = 27

24 - 3C + 4C = 27

24 + C = 27

Solve for C

C = 27 - 24

C =3

Recall that:

N=8 - C

N = 8 - 3

N = 5

<em>Hence, Susanna bought 3 pounds of candies and 5 pounds of mixed nuts</em>

A square patio has a perimeter of (8x + 48) feet. What is the length of the patio?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

2x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a square patio, then each side of the patio has the same lengt. As we know the perimeter of a square is the sum of all sides. Then to know the length of the patio we just need to divide by 4 the perimeter.

\dfrac{(8x+48)}{4}=\dfrac{8x}{4}+\dfrac{48}{4}=2x+12

Then each side of the square patio has a length of  2x+12
