Answer:
Jelly Bean price per pound = $3.25, Trail Mix price per pound = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let jb = price per pound of jelly beans
Let tm = price per pound of trail mix
equation 1 -> 6*jb + 2*tm = 22
equation 2 -> 3*jb + 5*tm = 16
simplify equation 1
6*jb + 2tm = 22
2*tm = 22 - 6*jb
divide by 2
tm = 11 - 3*jb
plug this into equation 2
3*jb + 5*tm = 16
3*jb + 5*(11-3*jb) = 16
3*jb + 55 - 15*jb = 16
-12*jb + 55 = 16
-12*jb = 16 - 55
-12*jb = -39
jb = -39/-12
jb = 3.25
then, plug the cost per pound of jelly beans back into the simplified equation 1
tm = 11 - 3*jb
tm = 11 - 3*3.25
tm = 1.25
Convert percentages to units.
100% - 20% = 80% = 0.8
100% - 25% = 75% = 0.75
Then multiply those together:
0.8*0.75=0.6=60%
100% - 60% = 40%. That's the overall price percentage reduction.
P.S. You can convert percentages to units by diving % by 100 for example 100% divided by 100 is equal to 1.
And vice versa aka multiply units by 100 and you get %, for example 0.8 times 100 is 80%
