Answer:
The number of pounds of cashew is 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P represent the peanut
Let C represent the cashew nut.
From question, we were told that Elijah brought a total of 16 pounds of peanuts and cashew nuts. This can be written as:
P + C = 16 (1)
The total cost = $49.50
Cost per peanut = $2.75
Cost per cashew = $3.25
The above can be represented as:
49.50 = 2.75P + 3.25C. (2)
From equation 1,
P + C = 16
P = 16 — C
Substitute the value of P into equation 2:
49.50 = 2.75P + 3.25C.
49.50 = 2.75(16 — C) + 3.25C
49.50 = 44 — 2.75C + 3.25C
49.50 = 44 + 0.5C
Collect like terms
49.50 — 44 = 0.5C
5.5 = 0.5C
Divide both side by 0.5
C = 5.5/0.5
C = 11
Therefore, the number of pounds of cashew is 11
Answer:
21 Feet
Step-by-step explanation:
7 yards is equal to 21 feet
You should multiply 20 time 8 to get your answer
2x + y = 5
Put the coordinates of the points to the equation and check it:
A. 5 - not make sense
B. (1, 2) - x = 1, y = 2
2(1) + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4 ≠ 5 NOT
C. (2, -1) - x = 2, y = -1
2(2) + (-1) = 4 - 1 = 2 ≠ 5 NOT
D. (3, -1) - x = 3, y = -1
2(3) + (-1) = 6 - 1 = 5 YES
<h3>Answer: D. (3, -1).</h3>
