Answer:
Number of pounds of cashews = x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y = 19.04 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
Number of pounds of cashews = x
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y
The nut shack sells cashews for $6.00 per pound and Brazil nuts for $5.00 per pound. How much of each type should be used to make a 34 pound mixture that sells for $5.44 per pound
Our system of equations is given as:
x + y = 34...... Equation 1
x = 34 - y
6x + 5y = 34 × 5.44
6x + 5y = 184.96.......Equation 2
Ww substitute : 34 - y for x in Equation 2
6(34 - y) + 5y = 184.96
204 - 6y + 5y = 184.96
Collect like terms
- 6y + 5y = 184.96 - 204
-y = -19.04
y = 19.04 pounds
Solving for x
x = 34 - y
x = 34 - 19.04
x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of cashews = x = 14.96 pounds
Number of pounds of Brazil nuts = y = 19.04 pounds

Answer:
340/4
Step-by-step explanation:
i beleive the answer would be 340 = 4 but if 340/4 is an option you could choose it.
There are 30 players in the tournament
Hmm, y=1 is directix
means it opens up or down
we will be using
(x-h)²=4p(y-k) where (h,k) is vertex and p is the distnace from focus to vertex and from vertex to direcitx
focus is (-1,-3)
find distance between y values because directix is a y value
midpoint is the vertex
from -3 to 1 is 2 units
since focus is below directix, it opens down, and p is negative
it is 2 units above focus
so at (-1,-1)
and p=-2
(x-(-1))²=4(-2)(y-(-1))
(x+1)²=-8(y+1) is da equation
