Answer:

1 pound of expensive chocolate
2 pounds of other chocolate

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>e</em> represent the number of pounds of expensive chocolate in the bag. Then (3-e) is the amount of the other chocolate. The total cost of the bag will be ...

6.00e +4.50(3 -e) = 15.00

1.50e = 1.50 . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 13.50

e = 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.50

1 pound of expensive chocolate is used; 2 pounds of other chocolate is used.

8.45 At some point in the season, the Unicorns had won 60% of their basketball games. After that point, they won 8 more games an

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The total number of games won by Unicorn is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with a word problem
We are asked to find the number of unicorns played during the season
We can do this in two steps

Step 1: Finding the win percentage

Step 2: Finding the number of unicorns played during the season

Step 1 of 2

Let the number of games played by unicorn be x.The unicorn won 60% of the first x-10 games That is $\frac{60}{100} \times(x-10)$

Combining the 8 games we get,

$\begin{gathered}\frac{60}{100}(x-10)+8=\frac{60}{100} \times x-\frac{60}{100} \times 10+8 \\0.6 x-6+8=0.6 x+2\end{gathered}$

Step 2 of 2

The unicorn totally won 65% of the games played.

That is $\frac{65}{100} \times x=0.65 x$

Equating both the equation gives

$\begin{gathered}0.6 x+2=0.65 x \\2=0.65 x-0.6 x \\2=0.05 x \\\frac{2}{0.05}=x \\40=x\end{gathered}$

Solve the inequality −22 + 4q > 2

Mars2501 [29]

First you had to add by twenty-two from both sides of equation form.

$-22+4q+22>2+22$

Then simplify by equation.

$4q>24$

Next, you divide by four from both sides of equation form.

$\frac{4q}{4}> \frac{24}{4}$

Finally, simplify by equation.

$24/4=6$

$24/6=4$

$6*4=24$

$4*6=24$

$q>6$

Final answer: $\boxed{q>6}$

Hope this helps!

And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day.
