This is the concept of algebra, to calculate the proportion of wool in each item we proceed as follows;
Let the amount of wool used for hat be x
amount of wool in sweater will be 5x
the amount of wool used in scarf will be x-5
therefore the total amount of wool will be:
x+5x+(x-5)=550
x+5x+x-5=550
7x-5=550
7x=550+5
7x=555
hence;
x=555/7
x=79
the amount used in hat x=79g
amount used in sweater 5x=395g
amount used in scarf=79-5=74g
Let's use K for Kona and F for Fuji. The system of equations has to be a balanced system. For example, you can't mix the number of pounds of beans with the cost for each because pounds and dollars are different and you can only combine like terms...pounds with pounds and dollars with dollars. So let's start with the number of pounds. Since we don't know how much of each he bought we have the 2 unknowns, F and K, but we DO know that he bought 23 pounds total. So the first equation is
K + F = 23
Now let's see what we can do with the dollars. Again, we don't know how much he bought of each kind of coffee, but we do know that Kona beans cost $11 per pound and that Fuji beans cost $7.50 per pound, and we know that he spent a total of $197. So let's set that up:
11K + 7.50F = 197
Those are your 2 equations. It doesn't say you need to solve them, so you're done.
The magnitude of -1-5i is √26.
<h3>What is the magnitude of -1-5i ?</h3>
Given the complex expression; -1 - 5i
To find the magnitude, we use the formula;
| a+bi | = √[ a² + b² ]
| a+bi | = √[ a² + b² ]
| -1-5i | = √[ (-1)² + (-5)² ]
| -1-5i | = √[ 1 + 25 ]
| -1-5i | = √26
Therefore, the magnitude of -1-5i is √26.

Answer:
$1.35
Step-by-step explanation:
x: quarter=$0.25
y: dime=$0.10
z: nickel=$0.05
so total amount of changes
= (0.25*x)+(0.10*y)+(0.05*z)
x=3, y=5, z=2
substituting into the eqn
total = (0.25*3)+(0.10*5)+(0.05*2)
= 0.75 + 0.5 + 0.1
= $1.35
-24=u/6 just times 6 to both sides -24*6=-144 rewrite
-144=u
Hope this helps have a nice day
