40 POINTS Mike spent $12 on a bag
containing red and blue candies. The bag weighed 7 pounds. The red candy
costs $1.50 per pound and the blue candy cost $2 per pound. How much red and blue candy did Mike
have?

Use sentence to define your variables and final answer in a complete sentence.

Let the red candy be r and blue candies be b

r + b = 7(EQ 1)

1.5r + 2b = 12

2r + 2b = 14

Now,

(1.5r + 2b = 14) = (2r + 2b + 12)

2r - 1.5r = 14 - 12

0.5r = 2

r = 2/0.5

r = 4

Using equation 1

4 + b = 7

4b = 7

b = 7 - 4

b = 3

there would be 365 different 4 digit numbers

step-by-step explanation:

i belive that it is 365 because i asked google

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
