Answer: B. the variable y represents the pounds of roasted coffee in the 46$ purchase.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The rate of espresso = $8.50 per pound
The rate of coffee = $10.25 per pound
The equation represents a online purchase.
............(1)
and .................(2)
from equation (2), 8.5 is the coefficient of x, thus variable x represents the pounds of espresso and 10.25 is the coefficient of y, thus variable y represents the pounds of roasted coffee in the total purchase of $46.
And equation (1) represents the total pounds of espresso and roasted coffee.
Hence only option B is correct.

Answer:
The area in factored form is .
The area in standard form is .
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is length times width.
So the area here is (x+2)(x-5).
They are probably not looking for A=(x+2)(x-5) because it requires too little work.
They probably want A in standard form instead of factored form.
Let's use foil:
First x(x)=x^2
Outer: x(-5)=-5x
Inner: 2(x)=2x
Last: 2(-5)=-10
---------------------Adding together: .
The area in factored form is .
The area in standard form is .
