Answer:
x=11
Step-by-step explanation:
trust i guess
It's C. move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. then set each factor equal to zero.
Let x = pounds of $12 per pound coffee
then
20-x = pounds of $9 per pound coffee
.
12x + 9(20-x) = 10(20)
12x + 180 - 9x = 200
3x + 180 = 200
3x = 20
x = 20/3
x = 6 and 2/3 pounds of $12 per pound coffee
.
Amount of $9 per pound coffee:
20-x = 20-20/3 = 60/3 - 20/3 = 40/3
or
13 and 1/3 pounds of $9 per pound coffee
Equations:
100 + 35m
50 + 35m
Steps:
100 + 35m = 50 + 35m <span>
<em>Set the equations equal to each other.</em>
</span> <span />
<span>
100 + 35m = 50 + 35m <span>
-50 - 50
</span>
<em>Subtract 50 from both sides of equation to isolate the variable on one side</em>.
50+35m=35m
-35m -35m
<em>Subtract 35m from both sides of equation.</em>
50=m
