The cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t = cost/pound of trail mix
Let j = cost/pound of jelly beans
5t + 6j = 35
3t + 2j = 15 = > 2j = 15 - 3t
5t + 3(15 - 3t) = 35
5t + 45 - 9t = 35
- 4t + 45 = 35
- 4t = - 10
4t = 10
t = 2.5
3(2.5) + 2j = 15
7.5 + 2j = 15
2j = 7.5
j = 3.75
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
Add similar elements: -5x+3x=-2x
-2x+15=-3
Subtract 15 from both sides
-2x + 15-15=-3-15
Simplify
-2x=-18
Divide both sides by -2
-21/-2 = -18/-2
Simplify
x=9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
With the $875,000 from his input alone he is really close to $1,000,000 and doing simple intrest on the $250,000 is $105,000 a year is he earns 3.5% intrest a month.
So in 5 years he'll have about $1,662,500 using simple intrest but with compound it'd be more like 2mil
Hope this helps!
