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.

x+y=5 ............(1)

and 8.5x+10.25y=46.................(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.

the answer is B because the x represents the amount of espresso purchased and y represents the amount of roasted coffee purchased.

in total 5 pounds were purchased and it cost a total of $46 for the combination of types of coffee

What are the values of x and y in the figure shown below?
n200080 [17]
First let's find y. We know the sum of angles equals 180, so if we add the angles of ABC, we'd get 180.
30+y+80+y=180
110+2y=180
2y=70
y=35

You could solve x ,but the only response with y=35 is c. But to solve for x, you'd ad 35 35 and xwhich would equal 180.
35+35+x=180
70+x=180
x=110
