B. HOW MANY POUNDS OF PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE DID KARUNA'S CANDY
SHOP SELL?

A. System of equations:

B. 5.5 pounds of peanut butter fudge were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of chocolate fudge = $3.20

Cost of peanut butter fudge = $3.00

Total pounds sold = 15.5

Total gross profit = $48.50

C is the number of pounds of chocolate fudge sold.

P is the number of pounds of peanut butter fudge sold.

To find:

System of equations and number of pounds of peanut butter fudge sold = ?

Solution:

As per given conditions:

1.

Gross profit from Chocolate fudge:

Gross profit from Peanut Butter fudge:

Total gross profit =

So, the system of equations is:

2. To find P.

Let us solve the equations.

Multiply 2nd equation with 3 and subtracting from 1st equation:

Putting in 2nd equation:

So, the answer is:

5.5 pounds of peanut butter fudge were sold.

d) 48

step-by-step explanation:

16,32,48,64,80,96,112,128,144,160,176,192,208,224,240,256,272,288,304,320,336

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
