Answer:
- Walnuts - $1.25, chocolate chips - $3.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let walnuts = x, chocolate chips = y
<u>Set a system and solve:</u>
<u>Double the first equation and subtract the second one from it:</u>
- 6x + 10y - 6x - 2y = 40 - 14
- 8y = 26
- y = 26/8
- y = 3.25
<u>Find the value of x:</u>
- 6x + 3.25*2 = 14
- 6x = 14 - 6.5
- 6x = 7.5
- x = 7.5/6
- x = 1.25
b. c=4s
you multiply x times 4 to get y
Answer:
56 total
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of girls = x
Let the number of boys = 3x
x 1
=== = ==========
x + 28 3
Cross multiply
3x = x + 28 Subtract x from both sides
3x - x = 28 Combine
2x = 28 Divide by 2
x = 28/2
x = 14
Girls = 14
Boys = 14 + 28 = 42
Is the ratio 3 to 1?
42/14 = 3/1 Yes it does
Total number
14 + 42 = 56
Answer:
yes they are because its a 90 degree angle
