Answer:

  • Walnuts - $1.25, chocolate chips - $3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let walnuts = x, chocolate chips = y

<u>Set a system and solve:</u>

  • 3x + 5y = 20
  • 6x + 2y = 14

<u>Double the first equation and subtract the second one from it:</u>

  • 6x + 10y - 6x - 2y = 40 - 14
  • 8y = 26
  • y = 26/8
  • y = 3.25

<u>Find the value of x:</u>

  • 6x + 3.25*2 = 14
  • 6x = 14 - 6.5
  • 6x = 7.5
  • x = 7.5/6
  • x = 1.25

The revenue, in dollars, of a company that makes toy cars can be modeled by the polynomial 3x2 + 4x – 60. The cost, in dollars,
Tems11 [23]

For this case we have the following quadratic functions:

Revenue: 3x ^ 2 + 4x - 60

Cost: 3x ^ 2 - x + 200

Then, we observe that the profit is given by the following mathematical relationship:

Profit = Revenue - Cost

Substituting values we have:

Profit = (3x ^ 2 + 4x - 60) - (3x ^ 2 - x + 200)

Making the corresponding calculations we have:

Profit = x ^ 2 (3-3) + x (4 + 1) + (-60-200)\\Profit = 5x - 260

Answer:

An expression that represents the profit is:

Profit = 5x - 260
