Chin canned a number of quart jars anf a number of pints jars of tomatoes from hid garden. a pint is 16 onces and a quart is 32 ounces. the number of pints he canned is represented by p, and the number of quarts he canned is represented by q. which equation models the scenario if chin canned a total of 1280 ounces?

The equation which models the scenario is:   16 p + 32 q  = 1280

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of pints packed  = p

The total number of quarts  packed  = q

The weight of 1 pint jar of tomatoes  = 16 oz

So, the total weight of p pints  = p x ( Weight of 1 pint) = p x ( 16 oz) = 16 p

The weight of 1 quart jar of tomatoes  = 32 oz

So, the total weight of q quarts  = q x ( Weight of 1 quart) = q x ( 32 oz)

= 32 q

Now, the TOTAL WEIGHT of p pints and q quarts

= Total weight of { p pints +  q quarts}  = 16 p + 32 q

Also, chin canned a total of 1280 ounces.

⇒ TOTAL WEIGHT of p pints and q quarts = 1280 ounces

or,   16 p + 32 q  = 1280 ounces

Hence, equation which models the scenario is:   16 p + 32 q  = 1280

answer:

c. the third graph

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
