Step-by-step explanation:
Is there more to this?
Let x represent the number of pounds of $10.75/lb coffee used in the mix.
.. 10.75x +3.25(100 -x) = 5.65*100 . . . . . . total cost of coffee blend
.. x(10.75 -3.25) = 100*(5.65 -3.25) . . . . . .separate x-terms from non-x terms
.. x = 240/7.5 = 32
32 pounds of $10.75/lb coffee should be used
68 pounds of $3.25/lb coffee should be used
Answer:
210 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
volume = W x L x H
(where W = width, L = length and H = height)
By inspection of the diagram,
W = 6 cm
L = 7 cm
H = 5 cm
Therefore, volume = 6 x 7 x 5 = 210 cm³
