An apple farmer is deciding how to use each day’s harvest. She can use the harvest to produce apple cider or apple juice for the
vitfil [10]

Answer:

A)

There are 18 bushels of apples.

1 bushel of apples will make 20 quarts of apple cider.  

1 bushel of apples will make 15 quarts of apple juice.

x = number of bushels to make cider out of.

y = number of bushels to make juice out of.

B)

As there are 18 bushels

x + y = 18

The apple farmer needs to produce a total of 330 quarts.

1 bushel of apples will make 20 quarts of apple cider.  

1 bushel of apples will make 15 quarts of apple juice.

20x + 15y = 330

C)  

x + y = 18. Thus we can express y in terms of x:

y = 18 - x

We can substitute the y in 20x + 15y = 330 and solve for x:

20x + 15 (18 - x) = 330

20x + 270 - 15x = 330

5x = 60

x = 12

And as y = 18 - x

y = 18 - 12  

y = 6

[ C_1 ]: We could have done the same with x, expressing x in terms of y:

x = 18 - y, substitute the x in 20x + 15y = 330 and solve for y:

20 (18 - y) + 15y = 330

360 - 20y + 15y = 330

-5y = -30

y = 6

And as x = 18 - y

x = 18 - 6

x = 12

D)

As we had defined in A)  

x = number of bushels to make cider out of

y = number of bushels to make juice out of,

there will 12 bushels of apples be processed into cider and

there will 6 bushels of apples be processed into juice

in order to produce

20 quarts of cider per bushel * 12 bushels = 240 quarts of cider, and

15 quarts of juice per bushel * 6 bushels = 90 quarts of juice,

which sum up to a total of

240 + 90 = 330 quarts of apple beverages, as required.

That question mark is filled in with the y-intercept.  The y-intercept is where the graph goes through the y-axis.  Our graph goes through the y-axis at 1, so the equation is y = 4x + 1

babymother [125]

Step-by-step explanation:

CP of 50 glasses is given 1500 so,

CP of one glass is 1550÷50 it mean the cost price of one glass is 30

now it have your question has said 4 glasses with broken so ,

1500-120

1380

<em>he</em><em> </em><em>sold</em><em> </em><em>each</em><em> </em><em>glasses</em><em> </em><em>at</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>cp</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>so</em><em>,</em>

<em>4</em><em>6</em><em>×</em><em>3</em><em>5</em>

<em>1</em><em>6</em><em>1</em><em>0</em>

<em>now</em><em>,</em>

<em>profit</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em>SP-CP</em>

<em>1</em><em>6</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>-1500</em>

<em>=</em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>0</em>

<em>Actual</em><em> </em><em>profit</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>profit</em><em> </em><em>percent</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em>actual</em><em> </em><em>profit</em><em>/</em><em>CP</em><em> </em><em>×</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>0</em>
