Answer: 9 pounds of chocolate and 6 pounds of sugar candies
Let's define the variables:
C = pounds of chocolate candies used.
S = pounds of sugar candies used.
We know that he wants to make a total of 15lb, then:
C + S = 15
We also want that the price per pound to be equal to 5$.
This means that the price of the 15 pounds will be the same as the price of the un-mixed candies.
C*$7.00 + $2.00*S = $5.00*15
Then we have a system of equations:
C + S = 15
C*$7.00 + $2.00*S = $5.00*15
To solve this system, we need to start by isolating one of the variables, i will isolate C in the first equation:
C = 15 - S
now we can replace that in the other equation:
(15 - S)*$7.00 + $2.00*S = $5.00*15
Now we can solve this for S.
$105 - $5.00*S = $75
$105 - $75 = $5.00*S
$30 = $5.00*S
$30/$5 = S = 6
Then there are 6 pounds of sugar candy, and we can use the equation:
C + S = 15
C + 6 = 15
C = 15 - 6 = 9
There are 9 pounds of chocolate candy in the mix.
Step-by-step explanation:
By writing and solving a system of equations, we will see that the owner must use 6 lb of the chocolate candies and 9 lb of the sugar candies.
Let's define two variables:
x = pounds of chocolate candies usedy = pounds of sugar candies used.Then, using the given information, we will have that:
x + y = 15
x*$7.00 + y*$2.00 = $5.00*15
If we isolate x in the first equation we get:
x = 15 - y
Now we can replace that in the second equation to get:
(15 - y)*$7.00 + y*$2.00 = $75
$105 - y*$5.00 = $75
$105 - $75 = y*$5.00
$30 = y*$5.00
$30/$5 = y = 6
So the owner must use 6 pounds of the chocolate candies, and the other 9 pounds of the sugar candies.

Answer:
y = 69
Step-by-step explanation:
start with the distributive property:
5/9 * y and 5/9 * 3
and now you have: 5/9y + 15/9 = 40
and we have to isolate y so subtract 15/9 from both sides:
5/9y + 15/9 = 40
- 15/9 -15/9
and now you have 5/9y = 345/9
and now divide both sides by 5/9 so: 5/9y divided by 5/9 = y
and 345/9 divided by 5/9 = 345/5 and lets simplify....
y= 69

Answer:
There are 625 trees in the park.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that there are x trees in the park
∵ The number of trees in the park = x
∵ 27% of them are oaks
∵ 16% are pins
∵ 33% of them are banyans
∵ The remaining are willows
→ The percentage of the total number of trees is 100%
∴ The percent of the remaining = 100% - (27 + 16 + 33)%
∴ The percent of the remaining = 100% - 76%
∴ The percent of the remaining = 24%
∵ The number of willows trees = 150
∴ 24% of x = 150
∴ 24% × x = 150
→ Change the percent to a decimal by divide it by 100
∵ 24% = [tex]\frac{24}{100}[/tex] = 0.24
∴ 0.24 × x = 150
∴ 0.24x = 150
→ Divide both sides by 0.24
∴ x = 625
∴ There are 625 trees at the park.

A bus traveled on a level road for 2 hours at an average speed 20 miles per hour faster than it traveled on a winding road. The time spent on the winding road was 4 hours. Find the average speed on level road of the entire trip was 310 miles
Answer:
The average speed on level road is 65 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed on the winding road be x mph
So the speed on the straight road will be x +20 mph
Mathematically, distance = speed * time
Distance on level road will be;
(x + 20)2
Distance on winding road will be;
x* 4 = 4x
Thus, we have;
2(x + 20) + 4x = 310
2x + 40 + 4x = 310
6x + 40 = 310
6x = 310 - 40
6x = 270
x = 270/6
x = 45 mph
The average speed on the level road is x + 20
That will be 45 + 20 = 65 mph

Let x and y be positive integers and x >y.
11
Complete Question:
Let x and y be positive integers and x be greater than y.
11x/11y = ?
Answer:
11x/11y = x/y
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x > y
Required
11x/11y
From the question, we understand that x is greater than y (i.e. x > y)
Also, we'll assume that y ≠ 0, in other not to result in an undefined result.
So,
11x/11y
Divide the numerator and denominator by 11
(11x ÷ 11)/(11y ÷ 11)
The result of the division is:
(x)/(y)
x/y
Hence,
11x/11y = x/y for x > y and y ≠ 0
