Albert bought 2 pounds of catfish and 2 pounds of salmon

Let c represent the amount of catfish in pounds and s represent the amount of salmon in pounds.

He spent a total of $12 on salmon and catfish and bought a total of 4 pounds.  Hence:

c + s = 4    (1)

4c + 2s = 12    (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

c = 2, s = 2

Albert bought 2 pounds of catfish and 2 pounds of salmon

A store sells black ink pens for $5 and red ink pens for $4. John wishes to buy 20 pens but doesn’t wish to spend more than $92.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the number of black

ink pens that John wants to buy.

Let r represent the number of red

ink pens that John wants to buy.

John wishes to buy 20 pens. This would be expressed as

b + r = 20

The store sells black ink pens for $5 and red ink pens for $4. John doesn’t wish to spend more than $92. The inequality to show this information would be expressed as

5b + 4r ≤ 92

How to solve X - 1v+ 4 + 7y - 3
Nostrana [21]
The first step to solving this is to remember our mathematical rules. They state that when the term has a coefficient of -1,, the number doesn't have to be written but the sign needs to remain. This will change the expression to the following:
x - v + 4 + 7y - 3
Now subtract the numbers 4 and 3 from each other.
x - v + 1 + 7y 
Since this expression cannot be simplified any further,, the correct answer to your question would be x - v + 1 + 7y.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
