Charlotte runs a farm stand that sells bananas and raspberries. Each pound of bananas sells for $3.25 and each pound of raspberries sells for $1.75. Charlotte sold 13 more pounds of bananas than pounds of raspberries and made $227.25 altogether. Determine the number of pounds of bananas sold and the number of pounds of raspberries sold.

There are 50 pounds of bananas sold and there are 37 pounds of raspberries sold.

Let the number of bananas sold = b

Let the number of raspberries sold = b - 13.

Based on the information given, the equation will be:

3.25(b) + 1.75(b - 13) = 227.25

Open the brackets

3.25b + 1.75b - 22.75 = 227.25

Collect like terms

3.25b + 1.75b = 227.25 + 22.75

5b = 250

Divide both side by 5

5b/5 = 250/5

b = 50

Pounds of raspberries = 50 - 13 = 37

There are 50 pounds of bananas sold and there are 37 pounds of raspberries sold.

37 pounds of raspberries

Step-by-step explanation:

3.25(b) + 1.75(b - 13) = 227.25

5b - 22.75 = 227.25

5b = 250

b = 50

b - 13 = 37

1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 +4^3 = (1+2+3+4)^2
