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>

What THREE integers have a sum of 300?
quester [9]

Answer:

Here we will use algebra to find three consecutive integers whose sum is 300. We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 300. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 300

To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract three from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 300

3X + 3 = 300

3X + 3 - 3 = 300 - 3

3X = 297

3X/3 = 297/3

X = 99

Which means that the first number is 99, the second number is 99 + 1 and the third number is 99 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 300 are 99, 100, and 101.

99 + 100 + 101 = 300

We know our answer is correct because 99 + 100 + 101 equals 300 as displayed above.
