Step-by-step explanation:
y = 25 + 20 x = 20 x + 25
being 25 the flat fee and 20 the price per bottle
I believe the answer is 7
From the given data, we can generate two equations with two unknowns.
We let x = number of loaves of bread
y = number of batches of muffins
For the equation of the flour requirement:
17 = 3.5x + 2.5y
<span>For the equation of the sugar requirement:
</span>4.5 = 0.75x + 0.75y
We evaluate the solutions by manipulating one of the equations into terms of the other. We use the first equation.We write x in terms of y.
x = (4.5/0.75) - y
Substitute the third equation to the second equation.
17 = (3.5((4.5/0.75)-y)) + 2.5y
Evaluating y and x, we have,
y = 4 and x = 2
Thus, from the amounts she has in hand, she can make 4 loaves of bread and 2 batches of muffins.
