Diego bought some raisins and walnuts to make trail mix. Raisins cost $4 a
pound and walnuts cost $8 a pound. Diego spent $30 on both ingredients.
Write an equation to represent this constraint. Let x be pounds of raisins
and y be pounds of walnuts.

Respuesta :

Answer:

4x + 8y = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of raisins = $4 per pounds

Cost of walnuts = $8 per pounds

Total spent on both ingredients = $30

Let

Pounds of raisins = x

Pounds of walnuts = y

Diego's equation can be represented by

PxQx + PyQy = 30

Where,

Px = price of raisins

Qx = Quantity of raisins (pounds)

Py = price of walnuts

Qy = Quantity of walnuts (pounds)

PxQx + PyQy = 30

4x + 8y = 30
