You have one type of nut that sells for $3.00/lb and another type of nut that sells for $5.40/lb. You would like to have 7.2 lbs
brilliants [131]

Answer: 2.4 pounds of the type of nut that sells for $3.00/lb and 4.8 pounds of the type of nut that sells for $5.40/lb would be needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of the type of nut that sells for $3.00/lb that you would need.

Let y represent the number of pounds of the type of nut that sells for $5.40/lb that you would need.

You would like to have 7.2 lbs of a nut mixture. It means that

x + y = 7.2

The mixture would sell for $4.60/lb. It means that the cost of the mixture would be

4.6 × 7.2 = $33.12

This means that

3x + 5.4y = 33.12- - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 7.2 - y Intl equation 1, it becomes

3(7.2 - y) + 5.4y = 33.12

21.6 - 3y + 5.4y = 33.12

- 3y + 5.4y = 33.12 - 21.6

2.4y = 11.52

y = 11.52/2.4

y = 4.8

x = 7.2 - y = 7.2 - 4.8

x = 2.4

2x + 8y=5 solve for x
lora16 [44]

Answer:

x=\frac{5-8y}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Equation is given, so solving for "x" would mean an expression for "x", where

x = SOMETHING

First, we need to isolate x, so we need to take "8y" to the other side, we have:

2x+8y=5\\2x=5-8y

Now, since we don't have "x" isolated yet, we need to take out the 2, so we will divide both sides by 2 to get x isolated. Shown below:

2x=5-8y\\x=\frac{5-8y}{2}

So, x has this expression  x=\frac{5-8y}{2}
