8) x represents the number of pounds of peanuts, and y represents the number of pounds of raisins
9)
Solve:
x+2y=9
-2y -2y
x=9-2y
2(9-2y) + 3y=14
18-4y+3y=14
-18 -18
-y=-4
y=4
x+2(4)=9
x+8=9
x=1
Y=t+12 this is one the answers
Well, those 5 extra yards had given her an extra $100, so the yards she cut, plus those she trimmed, had given her $315. To cut one and trim another one she takes $35. This means 9 yards were cut and 14 trimmed. (do a division, 315/35=9).
You will take 44+(40/100 * 44) = 44 + 17.6 = $61.60 ($61.60 is going to be the retail price of the lamp).
