Answer:

  • 2 1/4 pounds of blueberries

Step-by-step explanation:

Blueberries - b, raspberries - x

<u>Equations as per question:</u>

  • b = x * 1/5
  • b + 1 4/5 = x

<u>Eliminate b and solve for x:</u>

  • 1/5x = x - 1 4/5
  • x - 1/5x = 1 4/5
  • 4/5x = 9/5
  • x = 9/5 : 4/5
  • x = 9/5 *5/4
  • x = 9/4
  • x = 2 1/4
