Can someone pls help i have been stuck on this one for a little while ):

This is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

on the right side is 3.2 (x-5) this means that it represents 3.2 * (x-5). You have to multiply (according to the distributive property) 3.2 by x and 3.2 by (-5), so you get 3.2x + (3.2*-5) = 3.2x -16

The left side says 3.2x-5, that is clearly not equal to 3.2x-16.

It is impossible to say that there are infinitely many solutions as there are actually no possible solutions. Set the functions equal so it is:

3.2x-5 = 3.2x-16

solve for x by subtracting the 3.2x from the right side and the left side, then add 5 to both sides to isolate the variable with the other terms.

You get 0=11

That is not true.

step-by-step explanation:

delaney would like to make a 5lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

she has several pounds of peanuts and several pounds of a mixture that is 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.

let 'p' represent the number of pounds of peanuts needed to make the new mixture, and  

let 'm' represent the number of pounds of the 80% almond-20% peanut mixture.

:

p + m = 5

therefore

m = (5-p)

write an equation based on the percent of peanuts

1p + .2m = .6(5)

replace m with (5-p)

p + .2(5-p) = .6(5)

p + 1 - .2p = 3

p - .2p = 3 - 1

.8p = 2

p = 2/.8

p = 2.5 lbs of peanuts required

then

5 - 2.5 = 2.5 lbs of the peanut/almond mixture required

:

a) what is the system that models this situation?

p + m = 5

1p + .2m = .6(5)
