Answer:
The cost for each pound of trail mix is $ 1.75 and each pound of jelly beans is $ 2.75.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let each pound of trail mix cost
dollars and each pound of jelly beans cost
dollars.
Given:
7 pounds of trail mix and 9 pounds of jelly beans cost $ 37.
So,
--------------- 1
Also, 5 pounds of trail mix and 3 pounds of jelly beans cost $ 17.
So,
--------------- 2
Multiplying equation 2 by -3, we get

Now, adding equations 1 and 3, we get

Now, plug in
in equation 1 and solve for
.

Therefore, the cost for each pound of trail mix is $ 1.75 and each pound of jelly beans is $ 2.75.

the correct question is<span>What value of x would make RQ tangent to Circle P at point Q?
the picture in the attached figure
we know that
If RQ is a tangent to circle P at point Q
then
</span>RQ is perpendicular to the radius PQ at the point of tangency Q.
This means that ΔPRQ would be a right triangle.
Applying Pythagorean theorem
RP²=PQ²+RQ²
(x+9)²=9²+12²
(x+9)²=225
(+/-)(x+9)=√225
(+/-)(x+9)=15
+(x+9)=15-----> x=15-9-----> x=6
-(x+9)=15-----> -x-9=15-----> x=-9-15-----> x=-24
the solution is
x=6
the answer isx=6 units
