First we need to know how many miles per hour they drove the first time. This would be found by division. 168/3.5=48
Then we need to add 5 miles per hour for the average.48+5= 53
Next we need to multiply 2 1/4 by the new miles per hour 53*2.25=119.25
After that we need to know how many miles they drove 119.25+168=287.25 miles.
Finally to get an improper fraction we need to change 287.25 miles to it.
We already have 1/4 for .25 so we multiply 287 by 4 and add it to the 1/4 we already have and it makes it out to be 1149/4
Hope this helps!

Answer:
78 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say Yolanda makes a pounds of Type A coffee and b pounds of Type B coffee. Since the total number of pounds is 130, we can write the equation:
a + b = 130
We know the cost of Type A coffee is $5.20/lb and the cost of Type B coffee is $4.05/lb, so since the total cost is $586.30, we can write:
5.20a + 4.05b = 586.30
We can now solve the system of equations:
a + b = 130
5.20a + 4.05b = 586.30
Manipulate the first equation by subtracting b from both sides:
a + b = 130
a = 130 - b
Substitute 130 - b for a in the second equation:
5.20a + 4.05b = 586.30
5.20 * (130 - b) + 4.05b = 586.30
676 - 5.20b + 4.05b = 586.30
Move the terms with b to one side:
1.15b = 89.70
b = 78
Thus, Yolanda used 78 pounds of Type B coffee.

A) To buy one box of the new cereal it will be y=8*1 so 8$. 12-8= 4. So the original brand is 4$ more.
B) 4*4=16$
