Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let (applicable to all three lines below)
- Hard candy = x kg with price $1.60/kg
- Gummy worms = y kg with price $2.20/kg
- Total weight = 50 kg with mixed price $1.75/kg
<u>Required equations:</u>
- x + y = 50 total weight
- 1.60x + 2.20y = 50*1.75 total price
=========================================
<u><em>Note</em></u><em>. It says don't solve but the solution below for those who is interested to know the answer.</em>
<u>Simplify the second equation and solve by substitution x = 50 - y:</u>
- 1.6(50 - y) + 2.2y = 87.5
- 80 - 1.6y +2.2y = 87.5
- 0.6y = 7.5
- y = 7.5/0.6
- y = 12.5
<u>Find the value of x:</u>
<u>Hard candy</u> = 37.5 kg and <u>gummy worms</u> = 12.5 kg

Answer:
2 1/3 cups of flour for every dozen muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/2 dozen muffins equals 3 1/2 cups of flour which is also the same as 7/2 cups of flour. I know that (3) 1/2 dozen equals 1 1/2 dozen so I divided 7/2 by 3 which is 1 1/6 to get how much flour for 1/2 dozen then multiplied it by 2 to get how much flour in a dozen = 2 2/6 which simplified is 2 1/3.
Multiply the numerator by the numerator (top number).
Multiply the denominator by the denominator (bottom number).
So 3 x 6 = 18
And 5 x 7 = 35
= 18/35
