Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3 dogs and 2 cats.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case we can solve it using a 2x2 system of equations, like this:
let x: number of cats
let y: number of dogs
So:
42.5 * x + 64 * y = 277
35.5 * x + 50.5 * y = 222.5 => x = (222.5 - 50.5 * y) /35.5
Replacing, we are left with that:
42.5 * (222.5 - 50.5 * y) /35.5 + 64 * y = 277
266.37- 60.45 * y + 64 * y = 277
64 * y - 60.45 * y = 277 - 266.37
3.55 * y = 10.63
y = 10.63 / 3.55
y = 2.99, about 3
Now to calculate x:
x = (222.5 - 50.5 * 3) /35.5
x = 2
Which means that it has a total of 3 dogs and 2 cats.

given:
= cost of Brazilian coffee in mixture
= cost of Venezuelan coffee in mixture
= cost of mixture
---------------------
Now I can rite these equations:
(1)
(2)
Multiply both sides of (2) by and
subtract from (1)
(1)
(2)
and, since
288 kg of Brazilian coffee and 96 kg of Venezuelan coffee are needed
