Bags of almonds cost three dollars more than bags of pecans the owner of a bakery ordered five bags of almonds and three bags of pecans the total cost of the order was $55 how much is a bag of almonds cost if a represent almonds which equation represents the situation

Let bags of pecans cost = x

Make an equation :

Bags of almonds cost = x + 3 (they said almonds cost 3 dollars more)

Total number of bags ordered: (3 bags pecans) + (5 bags of almonds)

Cost for pecans = 3x

Cost for almonds = 5(x + 3) = 5x + 15

Price of pecans + price of almonds = total cost

Solve for x:

3x + 5(x + 3) = 55 (remove brackets)

3x + 5x + 15 = 55 (add like terms)

8x + 15 = 55

8x + 15 - 15 = 55 - 15 (get rid of the 15)

8x = 40

8x/8 = 40/8

x = 5

bags pecans cost is $5

bags of almonds is $5+$3 = $8

The correct option is;

g(x) = Negative two-fifths(10)x

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for the reflection across the x-axis is as follows;

Reflection about the x-axis

Pre-image point before reflection = (x, y)

Point of image after reflection = ((x, -y)

Therefore, the x coordinate remains the same while the y coordinate changes sign

For which given that f(x) = y = 2/5(10)x and g(x) = Reflection of f(x) across the x-axis, we have

Reflection about the x-axis

Pre-image point before reflection = (x, f(x))

Point of image after reflection = (x, g(x))

Hence g(x) = -f(x) = -2/5(10)x.
