Answer:

a) 80 ibs

b) 40 ibs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the pound of the high quality bean at $6.50

(120-x) will be the pound of the cheaper bean at $2.50

6.5x + 2.5(120 - x) = 5.17(120)

6.5x + 300 - 2.5x = 620.4

Collect like terms

6.5x - 2.5x = 620.4 - 300

4x = 320.4

x = 320.4/4

x= 80.1

x = 80 ibs(to the nearest pounds)

For the cheaper bean we have 120 -x

= 120 - 80

= 40 ibs

Sarah would blend 80 ibs of quality bean and 40 ibs of cheaper bean

Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To find the answer of this we will have to this we will have to add each of the answers together...

To find Volume of a Cylinder: π(r^2)h

To find Volume of a Cone: π(r^2)(h/3)


Givens for a Cylinder: r= 2, h=3

Givens for both Cones: r=2, h=3


Cylinder:

V= π(r^2)h

V= π(2^2)3

V= π(4)3

V= 12π


Volume of both Cones added together:

V= (π(r^2)(h/3)) * 2

V= (π(2^2)(3/3)) * 2

V= (π(4)(1)) * 2

V= (π4) * 2

V= 8π


Volume for Whole Shape:

12π + 8π = 20π cm^3


So...

The answer is: C.) 20π cm^3
