Answer:
35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,
8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4
simplify,
8x + 300 - 6x = 370
2x + 300 = 370
and solve.
2x = 70
x = 35
This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.
We can subtract that from 50 to find,
50 - 35 = 15,
15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.
1. 2x+3<-3 = x<-3
You get this by subtracting 3 from both sides, which gives you -6. Then divide 2 from both sides.
2. -3x<-6 = x>2
You divide -3 from both sides. You must switch the sign because any time you multiply or divide a negative integer from both sides of an inequality the sign is switched.
3. -5x<5 = x>1
See number 2
4. 5-2x<11 = x>-3
Subtract 5 from both sides to get -2x<6. Then, divide both sides by -2 and switch the sign.
5. x+2<5 = x<3
Subtract 2 from both sides
6. 2-3x<5 = x>-1
Subtract 2 from both sides to get -3x<3. Then, divide -3 from both sides and switch the sign.
