<span>The equation that shows the cost of a mix of Arabica and Robusta beans is: 700 A + 1,200 R = 1,000,000. We know that a mixture contains 1,000 pounds of Arabica beans ( A = 1,000 ). So: 700 * 1,000 + 1,200 R= 1,000,000; 700,000 + 1,200 R = 1,000,000 ; 1,200 R = 1,000,000 - 700,000 ; 1,200 R = 300,000 ; R = 300,000 : 1,200 ; R = 250. Answer: There should be: R = 250 pounds.</span>

1/4 is less then 2/4 or 1/2so if the denominator is equal it will be easier to multiply
Answer:
.403645833 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
1 5/8-1 equals 5/8
8.75-1 equals 7.75
7.75/12 equals .6458
.6458 times 5/8 equals .4 square inches
Answer:
a=1 or a=5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to attempt to factor 6a^2-a-5
a=6
b=-1
c=-5
Find two numbers that multiply to be a*c and add to be b.
a*c=-30 =-6(5)
b=-1 =-6+5
So replace -a with -6a+5a in the expression we started with
6a^2-6a+5a-5
now we factor by grouping
6a(a-1)+5(a-1)
(a-1)(6a-5)
Now let's solve the equation:
(a-1)(6a-5)=0
So a=1 or a=5/6
