Answer: 19.08 = x + 12.25 is the equation.

$6.83 is the cost.


Step-by-step explanation: Solve for x in the equation to find the total cost of the cat food.

19.08 = x + 12.25 (All you're doing is subtracting 12.25 from 19.08)

6.83 = x

Felipe's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A costs Felipe $4.55 per lb. Type B costs $5.7
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Type A coffee in lbs = 97 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Type a = 4.55/lbs = x

type b = 5.70/lbs =  y

Total in lbs = 147lbs

total in sales = 726.50

First,

x + y = 147 lbs    -------------------equ 1

4.55x + 5.70y = lbs    ------------ equ 2

<em>Multiply equ 1 by 4.55</em>

4.55x + 4.55y = 668.85  -------------equ 3

4.55x + 5.70y = 726.50   ------------equ 4

<em>Subtracting equ 3 from equ 4</em>

1.15y = 57.65

y = 50

<em>Substituting y = 50 into equ 1</em>

x + 50 = 147

x = 97

(x, 7) and (11, 8); m = -1/5<br> Plz help
Kay [80]

Answer:

This tells us that the line with slope -1/5 passes through the two points (16, 7) and (11, 8).  The previously unknown x-coordinate is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with slope m = -1/5 passes through the points (x, 7) and (11, 8).  Find the value of x.

The slope of the line through these two points is found from the slope formula and is:

        8 - 7

m = ----------- and the value of m is given as -1/5.  Therefore,

         11 - x

           1

m = ----------- =  -1/5

         11 - x

Cross-multiplying, we get (1)(5) = -(11 - x), or 5 = -11 + x.  Then x = 16

This tells us that the line with slope -1/5 passes through the two points (16, 7) and (11, 8).  The previously unknown x-coordinate is 16.

Can I get a help please ​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

middle graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Soluton

The  second (middle ) graph is the only one that works.

  • First of all when you simplicity the right, you get y = x^2 - 1). That means that x does not go through 0,0. If you put x = 0 into x^ -  1 = 0, you get - 1. So on that basis alone both the first and third graphs are incorrect.
  • Second, both xs in the factors are plus, so x^2 is plus, which means the graph opens upward.
