Answer:
35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,
8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4
simplify,
8x + 300 - 6x = 370
2x + 300 = 370
and solve.
2x = 70
x = 35
This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.
We can subtract that from 50 to find,
50 - 35 = 15,
15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.
Answer:
X= 43/3
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/4 x 5 = 3/4x - 12
-5/4=3/4x -12
-5=3x - 48
-3x-5 = -48
-3x = -48 + 5
-3x= -43
-3 x= -43
X= 43/3

Answer: William
Step-by-step explanation: This is true because whichever has a better gas mileage pays less, so the bigger number per year has better mileage, so 15,000 would have better which is Donald, and William has 12,000 which is worse, so he would have to pay more.
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
4−(2y+5)=3(1−4y)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
4−(2y+5)=3(1−4y)
4+−1(2y+5)=3(1−4y)(Distribute the Negative Sign)
4+−1(2y)+(−1)(5)=3(1−4y)
4+−2y+−5=3(1−4y)
4+−2y+−5=(3)(1)+(3)(−4y)(Distribute)
4+−2y+−5=3+−12y
(−2y)+(4+−5)=−12y+3(Combine Like Terms)
−2y+−1=−12y+3
−2y−1=−12y+3
Step 2: Add 12y to both sides.
−2y−1+12y=−12y+3+12y
10y−1=3
Step 3: Add 1 to both sides.
10y−1+1=3+1
10y=4
Step 4: Divide both sides by 10.
10y
