Answer:
8 bags of pretzels
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of bags of pretzels Tim buys. We assume he spends exactly $20 on exactly 12 bags of snack food. Then his purchase is ...
1.50x + 2.00(12-x) = 20.00
-0.50x +24.00 = 20.00 . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
-0.50x = -4.00 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 24
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . divide by -0.50
Tim will buy 8 bags of pretzels.
Set up a ratio of known to unknown:
Let X = the amount of gas needed for 500 miles:
220/12 = 500/x
Cross multiply:
220x = 6000
Divide both sides by 220:
X = 6000 / 220
x = 27.27 gallons (round answer as needed).
