Christopher purchased 2.8 pounds of almonds and 3.5 pounds to roasted pistachios.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of almonds per pound = $10
Cost of roasted pistachios = $12
Total amount spent = $70
Weight of nuts = 6.3
Let,
Weight of almonds = x
Weight of roasted pistachios = y
According to given statement;
x+y=6.3 Eqn 1
10x+12y=70 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 10

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2;

Dividing both sides by 2

Putting y=3.5 in Eqn 1

Answer:
original is 4 & 6.
for 54 sq inch= 6 & 9 and for 96 sq inch=8 & 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The length is 1.5 times the width.
so the length is, l = 1.5w
----(a)
lw = 24 =1.5w(w)
lw = 54=
1.5w(w)
lw = 96
=1.5w(w)
Further simplifying it,
1.5
=24
1.5
=54
1.5
=96
so,
=
=16
=
36
=
64
taking the square root, we get:
w = 4
w = 6
w = 8
By putting the above values in eq (a), we can find their corresponding lengths:
l = 1.5(4) = 6
l = 1.5(6) = 9
l = 1.5(8) = 12
So a few lengths could be:
(l, w)
(6,4)
(9,6)
(12,8)
Depending on how far it goes up and over up/run is the m and the y is were it touches the y axis
