A pound of candy costs x dollars. One of the friends bought 5lb and the second friend bought 7lb candies for the party. How much money did they spend together

The total money spent equals $12x.

Step-by-step explanation:

First friend spent $5x, representing 5Ib of candies at  a price of $x each.

Second friend spent $7x, representing 7Ib of candies at a price of  $x each.

Total pounds of candies bought = 5 + 7 = 12

Therefore, total cost of candies bought = 12 multiplied by x, which = $12x

The total quantity of candies bought multiplied by the price per pound gives the total money spent altogether.

x> 6

step-by-step explanation:

8x+8> 7x+14

8x-7x> 14-8

x> 6

step-by-step explanation:

if you want to solve percent error follow these steps.

1. subtract the accepted value from the experimental value.

2. take the absolute value of step 1.

3. divide that answer by the accepted value.

4. multiply that answer by 100 and add the % symbol to express the answer as a percentage.

if you want to solve percent of change just do this.

1. work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing.

2. divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. if your answer is a negative number then this is a percentage decrease.

hope this : )
