Answer:

  • Earl Grey: 150 pounds
  • Orange Pekoe: 450 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "e" represent the number of pounds of Earl Grey tea required for the mix. Then (600-e) is the number of pounds of Orange Pekoe tea required. The total cost of the mix is ...

  6·e + 4·(600 -e) = 4.50·600

  2e = 600·(4.50 -4.00) . . . . . simplify, subtract 4·600

  e = 300/2 = 150 . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Required are 150 pounds of Earl Grey and 450 pounds of Orange Pekoe.

Answer:

Stop and Save

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the cost of one apple in each place.

<u>Quick Market</u>:

Divide the total cost with the amount of apples:

1.08/3 = 0.36

The cost for one apple in <em>quick market </em>is $0.36

<u>Stop and Save</u>:

Divide the total cost with the amount of apples:

1.10/5 = 0.22

The cost for one apple in <em>Stop and Save</em> is $0.22

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$0.22 < $0.36 ∴ <em>Stop and Save</em><em> </em>is cheaper than Quickmarket by $0.14, making Stop and Save your answer.

Pls help in this aaaaaa

The question is incorrect. X is not defined UNLESS the hexagon is a regular hexagon, which means that all sides are equal (given) AND all angles are equal (not given).

Error in question aside, and  ASSUMING the hexagon is regular, you can apply the principle that
1. the sum of exterior angles of ANY polygon is 360.
2. the sum of exterior angles and interior angles at EACH vertex is 180.
3. Multiply sum from (2) above by the number of vertices and subtract 360 gives the sum of the interior angles.
4. IF the polygon is regular (all angles equal), then each interior angle equals the result from (3) divided by n, the number of vertices.

Example for a regular heptagon (7 sides, 7 verfices).
1. Sum of exterior angles = 360
2. sum of interior and exterior angles at EACH vertex=180
3. multiply 180 by 7, subtract 360
180*7-360=900
4. since heptagon is regular, each interior angle equals 900/7=128.57 deg.

Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y = 1/4 that passes through (-2, -6)
abruzzese [7]

Perpendicular lines, slope is opposite and reciprocal

so slope of new line = - 4

passes through (-2, -6) in point-slope form

y + 6 = -4(x + 2)

Answer is C. y + 6 = -4 (x + 2)
