Hailey's mixing two different coffee blends. Represent them by x and y (in pounds). Then x + y = 5 lb, and x = 5 - y.How much puree Sum. beans are we talking about here?
0.20x +0.80y = 0.60(5 lb) Mult all 3 terms by 100 to get rid of factions:
20x + 80 y = 300. Substitute 5-y for x:
20(5-y) + 80y = 300 => 100-20y + 80y = 300 => 60y = 200, so y = 20/6 or 10/3 lb den x = 5-10/3, or x =5/3 lb
Use 5/3 lb of the first blend and 10/3 lb of the second blend to come up with 5 lb of a 60% blend.
Answer:
x > 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
All of these three triangle inequalities must be satisfied:
AB +BC > AC
BC +CA > BA
CA +AB > CB
___
Taking these one at a time, we have ...
AB +BC > AC
3x +4 + 2x +5 > 4x
x +9 > 0 . . . . . subtract 4x
x > -9
__
BC +CA > BA
2x +5 + 4x > 3x +4
3x > -1 . . . . . . subtract 3x+5
x > -1/3 . . . . . divide by 3
__
CA + AB > CB
4x + 3x +4 > 2x +5
5x > 1 . . . . . . subtract 2x+4
x > 1/5
___
The only values of x that satisfy all of these inequalities are those such that ...
x > 1/5
Answer: 300
You need to change 9% into a decimal so it would be 0.09
Then divide 27 ÷ 0.09 = 300
So 9% of 300 is 27
Answer:
x = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+22) + (x+6) + (x-28) = 180
x + 22 + x + 6 + x - 28 = 180
x + x + x + 22 + 6 - 28 = 180
3x = 180
x = 180/3
x = 60
