Answer:

The number of pounds of City Roast Columbian coffee they should buy is 1 and the number of pounds of French Roast Columbian coffee they should buy is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of pounds of a City Roast Columbian coffee

y ---> the number of pounds of a French Roast Columbian coffee

we know that

x+y=12 -----> equation A

7x+8.20y=8.10(12) ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

The solution is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (1,11)

therefore

The number of pounds of City Roast Columbian coffee they should buy is 1 and the number of pounds of French Roast Columbian coffee they should buy is 11.

pav-90 [236]
If half the sum of the bases is multiplied by the height, then that is the area of the trapezoid.
I believe this is the correct wording.

I am pretty sure these statements are created by taking the last part of the statement and pairing it with the “if” and the first part of the statement and pairing it with a “then” to make a complete statement.

I hope this helps! :)

Find the Y INTERCEPT and SLOPE of the line <br> 5x+3y= -4<br> Y INTERCEPT= <br> SLOPE=
Veronika [31]
Rearrange the equation so the left side starts out as y =

5x + 3y = -4
3y = -5x - 4
y = (-5/3)x - (4/3)

the slope is in front of the x and the y-intercept iis the other number
slope is -5/3
y-interxept = -4/3
