The way she has the equation set up, she is only selling 1 bottle of tea and x bottles of water. So, she basically forgot to put the variable in that represents the number of bottles of tea sold
the way it should be : x = # of bottles of water, and y = # of bottles of tea
1.25x + 1.49y = 100
Since "p" represents the number of pounds of peanuts and:
4.05p + 14.40 = 4.50(p + 3) [then by distributing we have:
4.05p + 14.40 = 4.50p + 13.5 [then by subtracting 13.5 from both sides we have:
4.05p + 0.9 = 4.50p [then by subtracting 4.05p from both sides we have:
0.9 = 0.45p [then by dividing both sides by 0.45 we have:
2 = p
So there are 2 pounds of peanuts needed for the trail mix.

Answer:
It would be the transitive property! If you look up "If a = b, and b = c, then a = c" you'd see the transitive property. I hope this helps!
