Answer:

8/81

Step-by-step explanation:

It's most efficient to simplify the quotient algebraically before inserting the values of the variables x and y.

The given expression reduces to x³ / y^4.

Substituting 2 for x and 3 for y, we get:

(2)³ 8

A candy store makes a 9-pound mixture of gummy candy, jelly beans, and hard candy. The cost of gummy candy is $2.00 per pound, j

Musya8 [376]

Let

x--------> the amount of gummy candy in pounds

y--------> the amount of jelly beans in pounds

z--------> the amount of hard candy in pounds

we know that

$x+y+z=9$ --------> equation $1$

$2x+3y+3z=23$ --------> equation $2$

$x=2y$ --------> equation $3$

Substitute equation $3$ in equation $1$ and equation $2$

$[2y]+y+z=9$ -----> $3y+z=9$ ------> equation $4$

$2[2y]+3y+3z=23$ -----> $7y+3z=23$ ------> equation $5$

using a graphing tool ------> Solve the system of equations

see the attached figure

the solution is the point $(3,2)$

$z=3\ pounds\\y=2\ pounds$

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

$x=2y$

$x=2*2=4\ pounds$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the amount of gummy candy is $4\ pounds$

the amount of jelly beans is $2\ pounds$

the amount of hard candy is $3\ pounds$
