Arabica coffee costs $28 per pound and Robusta coffee

Mathematics
1 answer:
Soloha48 [4]3 years ago
3 0

Given parameters:

Cost per pound of Arabica coffee  = $28 per pound

Cost of Robusta coffee = $8.75

Given number of pounds of Robusta Coffee = 3 pounds

Total cost of blend per pound = $15.50

Unknown:

Number of pounds of Arabica coffee  = ?

Solution:

Let the number of pounds of Arabica coffee  = A;

  We have to interpret this problem algebraically and solve;

  28A + 8.75(3) = 15.5(A + 3)

Now solve the expression above for A;

       28A + 26.25 = 15.5A + 46.5

       28A - 15.5A  = 46.5 - 26.25

          12.5A = 20.25

                 A  = 1.62

Number of pounds of Arabica Coffee is 1.62 pound

Lydia has half of her investments in stock paying an 11% dividend and the other half in a stock paying 14% interest. If her tota
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Based on the calculations, the amount of money she invested is equal to $3,520.

<h3>How to determine the amount invested?</h3>

First of all, we would assign variables to the amount of money that he invested at different interest rates as follows:

  • Let x be the amount of money she invested at 11%.
  • Let y be the amount of money she invested at 14%.

Since Lydia invested the same amount of money in both stocks, we have:

x = y     ....equation 1.

At the two interest rates, the total amount Lydia gets is given by:

0.11x + 0.14y = 440     ....equation 2.

Solving the equations simultaneously, we have:

0.11y + 0.14y = 440

0.25y = 440

y = 440/0.25

y = $1,760.

Thus, the total investment is given by:

Total investment = 1760 + 1760

Total investment = $3,520.

9 Peter walked 8,900 feet from home to school.
kow [346]

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} miles&feet\\ \cline{1-2} 1&5280\\ x&8900 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{1}{x}=\cfrac{5280}{8900}\implies 8900=5280x \\\\\\ \cfrac{8900}{5280}=x\implies 1.6856\approx x\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{1.7=x}
