Audreys candy store sold 22 individual pounds of jelly beans, one kind at $3.87 per pound and the other at $0.94 per pound. in all, $29.47 was taken in for the two types of jelly beans. how many pounds were sold?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of high-priced jelly beans sold. Then the total revenue was ...

  3.87x + 0.94(22 -x) = 29.47

  2.93x + 20.68 = 29.47 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

  2.93x = 8.79 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  subtract 20.68

  x = 3  . . . . . . . . . divide by 2.93

3 pounds of $3.87 jelly beans were sold; 19 pounds of $0.94 jelly beans were sold.

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36

total amount to be paid = $19.5

step-by-step explanation:

given ,

original price = $25.99

discount = 25%

discount amount = 25% of original price

discount amount = 25/100   * 25.99

discount amount = $6.49

hence , the total amount to be paid = original price - discount amount

                                                            = $25.99 - $6.49

                                                            =$19.5

total amount to be paid = $19.5
