Agroup of hikers buys 8 bags of mixed nuts. each contains 3 and 1/2 cups of mixed nuts. the mixed nuts are shared evenly among 12 hikers. how many cups of mixed nuts will each hiker receive?

Hello There!

1 bag = 3.5 cups, then 8 bags = 8 x 3.5 = 28 cups of trail mix

28 cups/12 people = 2.33 cups/person

its a straight line parallel to the time axis

let y equal to

the total fare and x is the mile of taxi ride. so the equation is

y = 0.55x + 1.75

since susie has

$10 to spend for a taxi cab, so he can have

10 = 0.55x +

1.75

x = 15 miles of

taxi ride

so the system of

inequality is

10 < 0.55x +

1.75

x > 2
