I found the answer to this by first dividing 34 by 4 to get 8.5. We already know what 4 divided by 4 is. For every one pound of almonds, it costs $8.50. Since we know that we need to find out how much it costs for 5 pounds of almonds, we simply multiply 8.5 by 5 to get 42.5. It costs $42.50 to buy 5 pounds of almonds.
Evaluating each expression means to simplify the expression down to it's simplest form.
Answer:
5x - 2y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
When subtracting one equation from the other, we are essentially just subtracting the left side of the second equation from the left side of the first equation and doing the same thing with the two right sides.
Here, we are subtracting (-7x + 3y) from (-2x + y):
(-2x + y) - (-7x + 3y)
Let's get rid of these parentheses. Remember that when we have a subtraction sign before a parentheses, we need to distribute a -1 to each term within those parentheses:
(-2x + y) - (-7x + 3y) = -2x + y + 7x - 3y = -2x + 7x + y - 3y = 5x - 2y
Now on the right side, we're subtracting 2 from 0:
0 - 2 = -2
Put it all together:
5x - 2y = -2

50% can also be written as (1/2)
Multiply the two known values:
24 x (1/2)
This is equal to (24/2). Simplify the fraction by dividing:
(24/2) = 12
