Suppose you work for a large coffee distributor that has a secret coffee blend it sells to local stores. You mix the House blend

with the Organic Free Trade blend, but always in the same proportion. Yesterday, you mixed 140 pounds of the House blend with 168 pounds of the Organic Free Trade blend. Today, there is 130 pounds of the House coffee left in stock. How many pounds of the Organic Free Trade coffee should you mix with it to get your secret blend?

The ratio House blend/Organic Free Trade blend is the same and must remain the same.

So, the proportion is:

\frac{140}{168}=\frac{130}{x}

Where x is the unknown amount of the Organic Free Trade blend.

So, from the proportion, we have:

\begin{gathered} 140\cdot x=168\cdot130 \\ 140x=21840 \\ \frac{140x}{140}=\frac{21840}{140} \\ x=156 \end{gathered}

Answer: 156 pounds of Organic Free Trade blend

Answer:

First number line: 3rd line from 0

Second number line: 7th line from 0

(Sorry if I explained it kinda weird, hope this helps!)

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first number line, you would put the dot on the 3rd line from zero. From 0 to one, it's split into 5 equal parts. 0 is 0/5 and 1 is 5/5. So all you do is  plot the dot on 3/5, or the 3rd line from 0.

Same thing with the second number line. Except for this time, it's split into 8 equal parts. Just count to the 7th line in between 0 and 1 and plot the dot.

Could someone please help me with this?
hoa [83]

Answer:

We know that the interior angles of any triangle equal 180. Therefore in the left triangle, C must equal 53 in order for the interior angles to equal 180° (65+62+53)

Since these triangles are equal they are congruent. Congruent triangles share the same angles. Therefore C is equal to G. If c is 53 then m<G is also 53. x=53

Additionally, the side lengths of congruent triangles are equal. Therefore 11 is equal to x-y

x is 53 so 53-y=11

-y=-42

y=42

x=53
