Answer:
The answer is the most reasonable one which I think large is
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it's only 100 grams more and $2 bucks seems like a good deal
L = pounds of lollipop
c = pounds of caramel candies
0.95l + 1.10c = 30 ($0.95/lb & $1.10/lb)
l + c = 30 (mixture sells for $1/lb)
c = 30 - l
0.95l + 1.10(30 - l) = 30 (Substitution)
0.95l + 33 - 1.10l = 30
-0.15l = -3 (move terms)
l = 20lbs
Hope this helps.
Answer: X = 2.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step should be to isolate x or get x alone. This means we should get rid of the divided by 2 on the left by multiplying both sides by 2. This would get us to 2 * X/2 = 1.2 * 2. The multiplying X/2 would simplify to just X, and the 1.2 * 2 = 2.4. Therefore the final equation would become X = 2.4.
To check, you would plug in 2.4 into where X is in X/2 = 1.2. Since 2.4/2 = 1.2, we know that X = 1.2 from checking.
