Bentano spends $170 to order 30 pounds of nuts from an online company. The company charges $3.50 per pound for peanuts and $7.50 per pound for almonds. It also charges a flat fee of $13 for shipping and handling. Which equation can be used to find p, the number of pounds of peanuts Bentano buys?

3.5p+7.5(p−30)−13=1703 point 5 p plus 7 point 5 times open paren p minus 30 close paren minus 13 is equal to 170

3.5p+7.5(30−p)−13=1703 point 5 p plus 7 point 5 times open paren 30 minus p close paren minus 13 is equal to 170

3.5p+7.5(p−30)+13=1703 point 5 p plus 7 point 5 times open paren p minus 30 close paren plus 13 is equal to 170

3.5p+7.5(30−p)+13=170

Given :

Bentano spends $170 to order 30 pounds of nuts from an online company.

The company charges $3.50 per pound for peanuts and $7.50 per pound for almonds. It also charges a flat fee of $13 for shipping and handling.

To Find :

Which equation can be used to find p, the number of pounds of peanuts Bentano buys.

Solution :

Price of peanuts + Price of almonds + Delivery charge = Total amount

3.5p + 7.5( 30 - p ) + 13 = 170

Comparing the answers with given options, the matching answer is option D).

Hence, this is the required solution.

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

x=half
