In order to get the answer to this problem, first we have to find out how many pounds does one case of pancake mix have. We know that one box has 1.3 pounds of pancake mix. We also know that one case has 12 boxes. So first, we multiply 1.3 to 12. The answer we will get is 15.6. One case of pancake mix has a total of 15.6 pounds of pancake mix. Now we also know there are 7.5 cases that George bought. So in order to get the total pounds George bought, we multiply 15.6 to 7.5. So all in all, George bought 117 pounds of Pancake Mix.

Answer:
67
Step-by-step explanation:
● -(x + 3) + (y - 5) + (z - 6)
● -x - 3 + y - 5 + z - 6
● (-x + y + z) + (3 -5 -6)
● 75 + 3 - 11
● 78 - 11
● 67
Let's use K for Kona and F for Fuji. The system of equations has to be a balanced system. For example, you can't mix the number of pounds of beans with the cost for each because pounds and dollars are different and you can only combine like terms...pounds with pounds and dollars with dollars. So let's start with the number of pounds. Since we don't know how much of each he bought we have the 2 unknowns, F and K, but we DO know that he bought 23 pounds total. So the first equation is
K + F = 23
Now let's see what we can do with the dollars. Again, we don't know how much he bought of each kind of coffee, but we do know that Kona beans cost $11 per pound and that Fuji beans cost $7.50 per pound, and we know that he spent a total of $197. So let's set that up:
11K + 7.50F = 197
Those are your 2 equations. It doesn't say you need to solve them, so you're done.
