Answer:
- 7 pounds of fish
- 18.5 pounds of lobster
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of lobster sold. Then 25.5-x is the number of pounds of fish. The total money made is ...
4.25(25.5-x) +9.00x = 196.25
4.75x + 108.375 = 196.25 . . . . . simplify
4.75x = 87.875 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 108.375
x = 18.5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4.75
The market sold 7 pounds of fish and 18.5 pounds of lobster.
Answer
x=15.8
Step-by-step explanation:
20.3*2=40.6
72.2-40.6=31.6
31.6/2=15.8
(15.8*2)+(20.3*2)=72.2
20.3*2+x*2=72.2
x=15.8
Hope this helps.
