Any idea how to go about this math question? I have no idea

>>8501275
[math] x + y = 24 [/math]
[math] 1.08x + 3.05y = 2.64 [/math]

>>8501275
What are the variables here and what mathematical statements can you make about them?

>>8501283
this

>>8501283
>>8501292
This is wrong, it's on the right track though.

>>8501296
how is this wrong?

>>8501299
The equations are nonsense. Individually they are fine, but the logic of the first equation makes the second nonsense, and vice versa.

>>8501283
this is wrong. try

[math]
x + y = 24 \\
\frac{1}{24}(1.08x + 3.05y) = 2.64
[/math]

x+y=24
(1.08x+3.05y)/24=2.64
x=4.995, y=19.005

>>8501283
Last one should be 1.08x + 3.05y = 2.64(24) ya dingus

shh i was only pretending to be retarded

>>8501275
looks like it's about 19.2kg

>>8501371
this is correct

/biz/ here. the answer is 0, just raise the price of the cheap candy and put a new brand on it.

Don't solve it for them.
