1.Use the information provided to answer Part A and Part B of the question. Jenifer is making a fruit salad for the family picnic. She follows a recipe that mixes one part pineapple with two parts grapes and three parts cherries. Pineapple costs $2 per pound, grapes cost $3 per pound, and cherries cost $4 per pound. Part A Jenifer has $60 to spend on the fruit salad. Write an algebraic equation which models this situation and solve to find how many pounds of fruit salad she can make.
@Vocaloid
See, I can solve this, but I can't write out the equation for it xD
then use the draw
|dw:1511220000122:dw|
I will try
yusss
so you dont need to solve this, correct?
you do
but i can do that part
ah ok
So lets say x is the amount of pounds
ok
is there answer choices?
nope
Well I am required to ask you how do you think you get the equation
Ima go out and tell you the truth i can went to my school super late so im looking for online help to help me out so i have NO IDEA
idk where can came from
It seems like the equation may be as simple as 2x+3x+4x=60 but I am not 100% sure since I am doing 5 things at once. @Shadow what do you think?
there are more parts to it and i really dont understand this crap *^*
I am not sure about the equation for the record, what are the other parts?
Maybe @dude
Hold on
Part B Jenifer's sister gave her a different recipe which calls for her to mix seven parts pineapple, four parts grapes, and one part cherries. If Jenifer follows her sister's recipe, how many pounds of fruit salad can she make for $60?
Well I need to be sure on the equation before we do that part but I believe shadow is afk so you might have a wait a bit I am sorry
ok
