<span>The answer is c. 1.5r + 2.5(5 – r) = 10.50. Let r be the number of raisins and p be the number of peanuts. Raisins cost $1.50 per pound: 1.5r. Peanuts cost $2.50 per pound: 2.5p. Jeremy spends $10.50: 1.50r + 2.50p = 10.50. Jeremy makes 5 pounds of trail mix: r + p = 5. So, we have the system of two equations: 1.5r + 2.5p = 10.50 and r + p = 5. Use the second equation to express p: p = 5 - r. Now, substitute p in the first equation: 1.5r + 2.5(5 - r) = 10.50. Therefore, the correct choice is c. 1.5r + 2.5(5 – r) = 10.50.</span>

A combination washer/dryer costs $1,179. New parts for this washer/dryer cost $211, labor to repair it costs $553, and shipping
Keith_Richards [23]
The better deal is the Full Warranty, by approximately 174 dollars. To solve the cost of the full warranty, simply multiply 30 percent times the cost of the washer/dryer.30 x 1,179 = 353.70. You do not need to add anything to this because the warranty covers the extra costs. To solve for the cost of the limited warranty, multiply 14 percent times the cost of the washer/dryer, plus the cost of the new parts and the repair center costs (the warranty only covers the labor repair costs): (.14 x 1,179) + 211 + 152 --> 165.06 + 211 + 152 = 528.06. The full warranty is clearly cheaper. To figure out by how much, simply subtract the full warranty from the limited warranty: 528.06 - 353.70 = 174.36. To round to the nearest number, take off the decimal: 174. So that means your answer is D hope this helps.
