Answer:
Noah needs 8 pounds of the coffee that costs $9.20 per pound and 12 pounds of the coffee that costs $5.50 per pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of pounds of the coffee that sells for 9.20 be x while the number of pounds of the coffee that sells for 5.5 be y.
From the question, we know he wants to make 20 pounds of coffee
Thus;
x + y = 20 •••••••••••(i)
Let’s now work with the values
For the $9.20 per pound coffee, the cost out of the total will be 9.20 * x = $9.20x
For the $5.5 per pound coffee, the cost out of the total be 5.5 * y = $5.5y
The total cost is 20 pounds at $6.98 per pound: that would be 20 * 6.98 = $139.6
Thus by adding the two costs together we have a total of $139.6
So we have our second equation;
9.2x + 5.5y = 139.6 •••••••(ii)
From i, y = 20 - x
Let’s substitute this in ii
9.2x + 5.5(20-x) = 139.6
9.2x + 110 -5.5x = 139.6
9.2x -5.5x = 139.6-110
3.7x = 29.6
x = 29.6/3.7
x = 8 pounds
Recall;
y = 20 - x
y = 20-8
y = 12 pounds
Well, we need to find the area of the cake. 22.5 times 10 is 225. That is the area then we need to find the area of each piece of cake. 2.5 times 2.5 is 6.26.
so divide the area of the cake by the area of each piece to find how many pieces can be cut.
225/6.25=36 36 pieces of cake can be cut from the cake
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Variance can be said to be a measure of dispersion for a random sample.
Variance = pq/n
When given the variance, we can find the standard deviation.
Standard deviation = √variance
= √pq/n

Answer:
3 Credit Courses = 37
4 Credit Courses = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Set up 2 equations:
3x + 4y = 155
x + y = 48
2. Simplify the second expression for x by subtracting y from both sides
x = 48 - y
3. Substitute 48 - y for x
3(48-y) + 4y = 155
4. Simplify the expression by multiplying by 3
144 - 3y +4y = 155
5. Subtract 144 from both sides and subtract 3y from 4y
y = 11 = 4 Credit Courses
6. Substitute y for equation 2
x = 48-11
7. solve for x
x = 37 = 3 Credit Courses
