Answer:

Jelly beans: $6 for 1 kg

Gummy worms: $7 for 1 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we need to find the cost of 1kg of jelly beans and gummy worms.

To do this, make equations for both scenarios and solve:

2j + 2g = 26

2j + 3g = 33

Turn the bottom equation negative, as we will first solve for gummy worms (g).

2j + 2g = 26

-2j - 3g = -33

Solve:

-g = -7

Divide both sides by -1.

g = 7

We now know that gummy worms cost $7 for 1 kg

To solve for jellybeans (j), plug in 7 to g in one of the equations and solve:

2j + 2(7) = 26

2j + 14 = 26

Subtract 14 from both sides.

2j = 12

Divide both sides by 2.

j = 6

Jellybeans cost $6 for 1 kg.

Check answer by plugging in values to one of the equations:

2(6) + 2(7) = 26

12 + 14 = 26

26 = 26

Marvin has a vintage comic book worth $351. According to a dealer, the value of this particular comic book will increase by 12.1
White raven [17]
Y = 12.1% x 13 + 351
y= 0.012 x 13 + 351
y= 1.573 + 351
y= 352.573 or $352.6
