30 pounds of raspberries and 50 pounds of blueberries are sold

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "a" be the pounds of raspberries sold

Let "b" be the pounds of blueberries sold

Cost per pound of raspberry = $ 1

Cost per pound of blue berry = $ 3.25

<em><u>Maya made $192.50 from selling a total of 80 pounds of raspberries and blueberries</u></em>

Therefore,

a + b = 80

a = 80 - b ------- eqn 1

<em><u>Maya made $192.50. Therefore, frame a equation as:</u></em>

pounds of raspberries sold x Cost per pound of raspberry + pounds of blueberries sold x Cost per pound of blue berry = 192.50

a \times 1 + b \times 3.25 = 192.50

a + 3.25b = 192.50 ------ eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

<em><u>Substitute eqn 1 in eqn 2</u></em>

80 - b + 3.25b = 192.50

2.25b = 192.50 - 80

2.25b = 112.5

Divide both sides by 2.25

b = 50

<em><u>Substitute b = 50 in eqn 1</u></em>

a = 80 - 50

a = 30

Thus 30 pounds of raspberries and 50 pounds of blueberries are sold

You and your friend rent a canoe. The canoe costs 10 dollars per half hour plus 5 dollars per day for each life vest. Life vests
REY [17]
The greatest range....the range is ur y value, it will be the total cost...the x is gonna be the number of 1/2 hrs. And the 5 per life vest has to be multiplied by 2 because there is 2 people, making it 10
y = 10x + 10

the greatest range will be when u rent the canoe for the longest.
8 a.m to 6 p.m......thats 10 hrs....20 half hrs...so the greatest range is when u rent the canoe for 20 half hrs.

y = 10(20) + 10
y = 200 + 10
y = 210 <=== the greatest range
