BC = x + 14, AB = x + 10, AC = 22

1 answer:

4 0

$ab = x + 10 \\ bc = x + 14 \\ ac = 22 \\ (x + 10) + (x + 14) = 22 \\ x + x + 10 + 14 = 22 \\ 2x + 24 = 22 \\ 2x = 22 - 24 \\ 2x = - 2 \\ x = \frac{ -2}{2} \\ x = - 1$

The price of a bag of candy is a linear function of the amount of candy in the bag. A bag containing 25 pieces costs $0.99 and a

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

About 152 pieces of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equal proportions to solve for the $5.99 bag.

We know that 24 pieces = .99, so

$\frac{25 pieces}{.99 dollars} = \frac{x pieces}{5.99 dollars}$

Make sure to keep the pieces on top, and the dollars on bottom (or vice versa). If your units are messed up, it will not work.

Cross-multiply.

25(5.99) = .99x

Simplify.

149.75 = .99x

Divide both sides by .99.

x = 151.26 = about 151 pieces of candy
