Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. he can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. he buys 3 pounds of granola that costs $2.00 per pound. the walnuts cost $6 per pound. he uses the equation to represent the total cost, where x represents the number of pounds of granola and y represents the number of pounds of walnuts. he solves the equation for y, the number of pounds of walnuts he can buy. answer- b tomas added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6. just took the test

Not really sure what you are looking for, but this is how to solve equations such as these.

Let:

x = number of pounds of granola

y = numer of pounds of walnuts

The equation he can use to compute the total cost would be:

$2.00x + $6.00y = $12.00

We know that he bought 3 pounds of granola, so we plug in that for the x value:

$2.00(3) + $6.00y = $12.00

$6.00 + $6.00y = $12.00

To isolate the unknown value which is y, we first need to subtract $6.00 from both sides of the equation:

$6.00 + $6.00y - $6.00 = $12.00 - $6.00

$6.00y = $6.00

Then we divide both sides by $6.00:

$6.00y/$6.00 = $6.00/$6.00

y = 1

So the number of bags of walnuts he can buy is 1 bag.

i only know the sequence of arithmetic it adds the first is 5+4 then it goes up as it adds to then it is 9+5 then 14+6 then to 20+7 and so on. 5,9,14,20,27,35.
