Step-by-step explanation:

You need to set up a proportion. Percents always over percents, so our first fraction would be \frac{84}{100}, which just means that out of 100%, we are given 84. We need to find a variable to solve for: x. We need to find the number that <em>is </em>84% of 300, which means that 300 is 100%. Knowing this, it would be in the denominator, since both 100 and 300 are 100% of something. This would give us the fraction \frac{84}{100} = \frac{x}{300}. I like to use the cross-multiply method, which just means you multiply by a diagonal and then divide by what's left. This would give us 300 x 84 = 25,200/100 = 252. Hope this helps!

A landscaper has a total of $800 to spend on bushes at $20 each and trees at $50 each
NemiM [27]

Answer:

x=40 y=16

Step-by-step explanation:

20x+50y=800 you can turn it into slope-intercept form and it would end up being y=-2/3x+16 so now you have your y intercept (16) and you know your rise and run -2(rise)3(run).

Or you can substitute a zero for x and solve for y

20(0)+50y=800 which equals 50y=800 which equals 16 y=16

then you substitute a zero for y and solve for x

20x+50(0)=800 which equals 20x=800 which equals 40 x=40

Joe is the proud owner of Joe's Old Time BBQ Pit. He sells two types of BBQ sauce - Hot N' Spicy and Mild Mannered. Each gallon
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

P=$254

Step-by-step explanation:

let Hot N' Spicy be x

and Mild Mannered be y

  the objective function is

38x+35y=P

the constraints are

1. tomato sauce

2x+3y=18--------1

2. hot peppers

2x+y=10--------2

solving 1 and 2 we have

using substitution method

2x+y=10--------2

y=10-2x

put y=10-2x in eqn 1

2x+3(10-2x)=18

2x+30-6x=18

2x-6x=18-30

-4x=-12

x=12/4

x=3

put x=3 in eqn 2 we have

2(3)+y=10

6+y=10

y=10-6

y=4

He should make 3 gallons of Hot N' Spicy

and 4 gallons Mild Mannered

38(3)+35(4)=P

114+140=P

254=P

P=$254
