If p is the number of pounds of jelly beans Terri purchases, what expression could be used to represent the number of pounds of chocolate drops she purchases?
(Points : 1)
2.1 – p
2.1p
p + 2.1
p – 2.1

A store allows customers to fill their own bags of candy. Glen decides he only wants caramels and candy corn. Caramels sell for $0.95 per pound, and candy corn sells for $0.79 per pound. Glen’s bag weighs 1.7 pounds and it costs $1.48.

If p = pounds of caramels, which equation in simplest form represents the situation described.

(Points : 1)
–0.16p + 1.62 = 1.48
–0.16p + 1.62= 1.7
0.16p + 1.34 = 1.48
0.16p + 1.34 = 1.7

Answer 7

Seems like you just want answers. I shall not partake.

Answer 8

All - jellybeans = chocolate
so 2.1 - p = x
so it's A :)
I'm 100% sure

Answer 9

thank you

@JonnyVonny thats because I'm very behind and i'm really trying to get back up because iv been very very sick and alot has happened and im sorry

Answer 11

No need to apologize to me, you didn't harm me. Just make sure you learn how to do this, for, in higher math's you'll need to know how to do this already, prior to actually doing the problem.

Answer 12

yeah your right @JonnyVonny can you help me

Answer 21

i think its C

0.16p + 1.34 = 1.48

thank you

A store allows customers to fill their own bags of candy. Troy decides he only wants chocolate-covered pretzels and gumdrops. Chocolate-covered pretzels sell for $0.89 per pound, and gumdrops sell for $0.65 per pound. Troy’s bag weighs 1.8 pounds and it cost $1.29.

How many pounds of chocolate-covered pretzels and gumdrops did Troy buy?
(Points : 1)
0.5 pounds of pretzels; 1.3 pounds of gumdrops
0.9 pounds of pretzels; 0.9 pounds of gumdrops
1.3 pounds of pretzels; 0.5 pounds of gumdrops
0.8 pounds of pretzels; 1 pound of gumdrops

Answer 23

i have two more after this then I'm done :)

Answer 24

use this equations to get that


\(\large\tt \color{black}{p+c=1.7}\)

\(\large\tt \color{black}{0.95p+0.79=1.48}\)

Answer 25

@mathmath333

Answer 26

again same procedure use this equations solve for p and g


\(\large\tt \color{black}{p+g=1.8}\)

\(\large\tt \color{black}{0.89p+0.65g=1.29}\)
