Answer:
0.4h ; 60 - h ;18 - 0.3h ; 0.1h + 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Old house blend = 40% Columbian beans
New house blend = 30% Columbian beans
h = number of pounds of old house blend
a.) pound of columbian bean in old house blend :
40% of h = 0.4h
b.) pound of new blend poured into the bean:
Size of bin = 60 pound
Size of bin - pound of old house blend
(60 - h)
c. Amount of columbian bean in pound of new house blend :
30% of (60 - h)
0.3 * (60 - h)
18 - 0.3h
D.) Amount of columbian bean in 60 pound bin
(Pound of columbian bean in old house blend + pound of Columbian bean in New house blend)
0.4h + (18 - 0.3h)
0.4h + 18 - 0.3h
0.1h + 18
X = measure of each of the legs
"perimeter is 8 more than 2 times one of the legs" ---> P = 2x+8
P = 28 is the given perimeter
So,
P = 2x+8
28 = 2x+8
2x+8 = 28
2x = 20
x = 10
If x = 10, then the two legs add up to x+x = 10+10 = 20
Leaving P-20 = 28-20 = 8 inches left over for the base
You have the correct answer (choice D, 8 inches) though your steps are a bit confusing at some parts. Such as the part where you wrote 2x = 10 twice. I think I know what you were trying to say.
