Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let chocolate bar = c and blow pops = b
<u>As per given we have equations below:</u>
- 5c + 8b = 23.25
- 2c + 13b = 21.55
<u>13 times the first equation minus 8 times the second to eliminate b and find c:</u>
- 13(5c + 8b) - 8(2c + 13b) = 13(23.25) - 8(21.55)
- 65c - 16c = 129.85
- 49c = 129.85
- c = 129.85/49
- c = 2.65
Each chocolate bar costs $2.65
258 cubic inches
Since the boxes are kind of on their own—>
First box: 7*2*12 = 168
Second box: 5*2*9=90
168+90 = 258
<span>The value of y when x=3 when the value of y varies directly with x^2, and y = 150 when x = 5 is 54. Since the value of y varies directly with x2, then: y = k * x^2, where k is constant. When y = 150 and x = 5, the value of constant is: 150 = k * 5^2. 150 = k * 25. k = 150/25. k = 6. Thus, when x = 3, the value of y will be: y = 6 * 3^2. y = 6 * 9. y = 54.</span>
