Answer:

Number of bottles = 6

Number of cans = c

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Container for selling water :

17 oz bottle

11 oz can

Let number of bottles = b

Number of cans = c

b + c = 11 - - - (1)

17b + 11c = 157 - - - (2)

b = 11 - c

Substitute into (2)

17(11 - c) + 11c = 157

187 - 17c + 11c = 157

187 - 6c = 157

-6c = 157 - 187

-6c = -30

c = 30/6

c = 5

From ; b = 11 - c

b = 11 - 5

b = 6

Hence,

Number of bottles = 6

Number of cans = c

Granite counter tops cost $40 for every square foot. The base pay to install the counter top is $750. Set up a Linear Model repr
garri49 [273]

Answer: y = 40x + 750

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear model;

y = mx + c

y is the total cost of buying granite counter tops for a certain number of square foot as well as the cost to install the counter top.

m is the cost of granite counter tops per square foot which is $40 in this case.

x is the number of square feet required.

c is the base pay for the installation of the counter top which is $750

Linear model will therefore look like this;

y = 40x + 750

To test it. Assume you want enough granite tops for 10 square feet. How much would it cost;

= 40 (10) + 750

= $1,150
