Answer:
14 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations can be solved for y by substituting for x. The first equation is convenient for writing x in terms of y.
<h3>Solution</h3>
x = 20 -y . . . . . . . subtract y from the first equation
7(20 -y) +5.5y = 119 . . . . . substitute for x in the second equation
140 -1.5y = 119 . . . . . . . . simplify
21 = 1.5y . . . . . . . . . . . add 1.5y -119 to both sides
14 = y . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.5
14 pounds of soy nuts should be used in the mixture.

<em>Additional comment</em>
There are many ways to solve a system of two linear equations. The attachments shows a matrix solution using a suitable calculator. It tells us that x=6 and y=14, as we found above.

Good job you got it right! But others won’t be able to find it because you have a basic writing for it. Next time put the actual equations on so others can find it!
Answer:
10(5x - 6).
8(2m + 5).
9(3 - 5c)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
50x-60
16m+40
27-45c
The greatest common factor is a measure of the highest number present inside, or common to all the numbers that were listed. To take this one at a time, we have....
50x - 60. The highest number common to both of them is 10, and thus, we have
50x - 60 = 10(5x - 6), and this is the solved part.
16m + 40. The greatest number that's present inside both numbers is 8, and thus we have
16m + 40 = 8(2m + 5) and this is the solved part.
27 - 45c. The greatest common number is 9, and as a result, we have
27 - 45c = 9(3 - 5c), and this is the solution we were searching for
