Answer:
20 less than a number is equal to the number.
Step-by-step explanation:
X = price of the ingredients
so based on the proportion , we can write that :
Almonds needed = x = $ 12 x
peanut needed = 2x = 2x * $ 8 = $ 16x
raisins needed = 3x = 3x * $6 = $ 18x
Equation =
12x + 16x + 18x ≤ $ 23
46x = $23
x = $ 0.5
The pound of mix he can made :
0.5 * 1 pound of almond + 0.5 x * 2 pound of peanuts + 0.5 * 3 pound of raisins
= 3 Pound of mix
You first have to set up the two equations. Y is equal to the total number of gallons in a tank and x is equal to the number of hours the tanks are filling.
Since the two equations both equal y I can make them equal each other. I then solved for x as you see and got -4.
Once I found my x value I now needed to find my y. You only needed to chose one equation to solve for y, so I decided to do the first one. I plugged in -4 where my x value currently was and solved for y. I got 2.
If you have any questions please comment!! Hope this helps!!
The answer is4600. I got this by multiplying 25 and 23 which is 575 then you multiply that by 8 which gives you 4600.
