So 22.5 per barrel
so 22.5
x represents the number of 22.5 barrels
y represents the number of 35 barrels
so
x+y=1250
then find the total cost
1250 barrels
27.5 per so mutiply by 1250 and get 34375 total cost
22.5x+35y=34375
we have 2 senctances
x+y=1250
22.5x+35y=34375
elimination
mulitply first equation by -35 to clear y
-35x-35y=-43750
add to second equation
-35x-35y=-43750
<u>22.5x+35y=34375 +</u>
-12.5x+0y=-9375
-12.5x=-9375
multiply -1
12.5x=9375
divie both sides by 12.5
x=750
subsitute
x+y=1250
750+y=1250
subtract 750
y=500
750 barrells of the 22.5 oil should be included and
500 barrells of the 35 oil should be included
"Per" means "divided by", so "cost per ounce" means "cost"/"ounces".
The difference in cost per ounce is
.. (1.14/12) -(1.28/16) = .095 -.08 = 0.015
Brand X costs 1.5¢ more per ounce than Brand Y.
Answer:
Since ZE and ZF are vertical angles, they are congruent.
8x+8 = 2x+38
8 = 2x-8x+38
8 = -6x+38
8-38 = -6x
-30 = -6x
x = -30/-6
x = 5
Is it 2 times x squared (2x^2?
2 * 6^2
2 * 36
72
