Final answer:
By adding the number of almonds, hazelnuts, and walnuts, we found a total of 101 nuts. We used the equation 101 + p = 134 to find the number of pistachios (p), which is 33.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total number of hazelnuts, almonds, and walnuts, we simply add the given quantities together:
-
- 35 almonds + 34 hazelnuts + 32 walnuts = 101 nuts
We are also given that the total number of nuts in the bag is 134, and we need to find the value of p, which represents the number of pistachios. To do this, we write an equation where the sum of all the nuts equals 134:
35 almonds + 34 hazelnuts + 32 walnuts + p pistachios = 134
We already found that there are 101 nuts (almonds, hazelnuts, and walnuts) combined, so:
101 nuts + p pistachios = 134
To find the number of pistachios, we subtract 101 from 134:
p = 134 - 101
Therefore:
p = 33 pistachios
The bag contains 33 pistachios.
