Valerie Watkins is preparing walnut and raisin mix. Walnuts cost $2 per pound and raisins cost $3 per pound. She wants to spend exactly $22.50 for the walnut and raisins, and buy a total of 10 pounds. Solve the linear system where x represents the number of pounds of walnuts and y represents the pounds of raisins. How many pounds of walnuts will she need to buy? X + y = 10 2x + 3y = 22.5

7.5 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply by 3.

3x+3y=30

2x+3y=22.5.

x=7.5.

7.5+2.5=10.

7.5 pounds of walnuts, 2.5 pounds of raisins.

Hope this helps :D

answer: since the question is talking about growth you have to use the growth formula which is inital amount (1 + growth)^time

step-by-step explanation:

the intial amount is 1200, the growth is 4.8, and the time is 7. plug those numbers into the equation, also i think you have to change 4.8 into a percent. but, i have forgotton how to do that. if this is a online class go on to the lesson.
