Answer:
- The equation 2n = p should be 2p = n.
- The actual cost of the onions is $3.00 per pound.
- Potatoes cost $1.50 per pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
The wording "onions cost twice as much as potatoes" is understood to mean the cost per pound of onions (n) is equal to two times the cost per pound of potatoes (2p). Then the appropriate equation would be ...
2p = n
Then the solution is ...
6p +3(2p) = 18
12p = 18
p = 18/12 = 1.50
n = 2p = 2(1.50) = 3.00
__
The equation should be 2p = n; onions cost $3.00 per pound; potatoes cost $1.50 per pound.
Answer:11,058
Step-by-step explanation:
Just subtract
To determine this, we need to multiply 8 by 36 and 3 by 4 to get the total area.
8 x 36 = 288
3 x 4 = 12
Subtract the two to get the total area she is painting.
288-12 = 276
Your total area is 276 sq ft.
Your answer is D.)

A+b=(-3n+2)+(5n-7)
=(5-3n)+(2-7)
=2n-5
