Answer:
50 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Dan and june mix two kind of feed for pedigreed dogs
Feed A worth is $0.26 per pound
Feed B worth is $0.40 per pound
Let x represent the cheaper amount of feed and y the costlier type of feed
x+y= 70..........equation 1
0.26x + 0.40y= 0.30×70
0.26x + 0.40y= 21.........equation 2
From equation 1
x + y= 70
x= 70-y
Substitutes 70-y for x in equation 2
0.26(70-y) + 0.40y= 21
18.2-0.26y+0.40y= 21
18.2+0.14y= 21
0.14y= 21-18.2
0.14y= 2.8
Divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is 0.14
0.14y/0.14= 2.8/0.14
y= 20
Substitute 20 for y in equation 1
x + y= 70
x + 20= 70
x= 70-20
x = 50
Hence Dan and june should use 50 pounds of the cheaper kind in the mix
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they are collecting 20 pounds of cans each week, the slope is 20/1, or 20.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
(-2, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
–2x + 2y = -4
3х + Зу = -18
Divide the first equation by 2
–2x/2 + 2y/2 = -4/2
-x +y = -2
Divide the second equation by 3
3х/3 + Зу/3 = -18/3
x + y = -6
Add these equation together
-x +y = -2
x + y = -6
-------------------
0x + 2y = -8
2y = -8
Divide each side by 2
2y/2 = -8/2
y = -4
Now we need x
x+y = -6
x-4 = -6
Add 4 to each side
x-4+4 = -6+4
x = -2
The two numbers are 0.85 and 0.15
if you add them together you get 1, 0.85+0.15=1
and if you subtract them you get 0.7, 0.85-0.15=0.7
-275+X=-425
You need to find the change "X"
X=-425+275=-150
