Answer:

$14 per lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • Brand Y = $18 / lb
  • Special Blend = $17 / lb

Let x be the price per lb of brand X coffee

3 lbs of brand X coffee + 9 lb of brand Y coffee = 12 lbs of special blend

⇒ 3x + 9(18) = 12(17)

⇒ 3x + 162 = 204

⇒ 3x = 42

⇒ x = 14

Therefore, brand X costs $14 per lb

Answer:

$14/lb

Explanation:

\square Price of brand X be "q"

\square Price of brand Y be "t"

  • 3 lb of Brand X + 9 lb of Brand Y = 12 lb of special coffee blend
  • 3(q) + 9(18) = 12(17)
  • 3(q) = 12(17) - 9(18)
  • 3(q) = 204 - 162
  • 3(q) = 42
  • 3(q)/3 = 42/3
  • q = 14
<h3 /><h3>Per lb of Brand X costs $14</h3>

Mia can run at a rate of 360 feet per minute. Approximately how many minutes would she take to run a 500-yard stretch of road an
tankabanditka [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

since we know, she can run 360 ft per minute, and we want to know how many minutes she would need to run 500 yards we need to find out how often 360 ft fit into 500 yards.

so,

500 yards / 360 ft

how can we make this division ?

help is given to us by taking us that 1 yard = 3 ft.

aha !

so, 500 yards = 500×3 ft = 1500 ft

therefore, our task now looks like

1500 ft / 360 ft

and this we understand and can do, right ?

1500 / 360 = 150/36 = 75/18 = 4 3/18 = 4 1/6 minutes

the closest answer option is therefore 4.2, meaning she would take about 4.2 minutes to run 500 yards.

How do you convert length to cm, in, ml etc.
UNO [17]

Answer:

Use an online converter but there is something you should know

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two systems of measurement. The Imperial system (inch, mile, cups, ounces) and the Metric system (millimeter, centimeter, gram, kilogram).

Converting measurements in the imperial system by memory is very hard, but converting measurements in the metric system is more simple.

It is easier to learn by images so here is an image that explains it

Keep in mind that measurements like inches and centimeters are for distance, while gram and ounces are for weight.
