Membership is discounted $2 for first month
c=cost of one month
d=discount=$2
x=# of months
xc - 2= total cost
x for 1 month is 1, c is always 12, -2 is constant
1 x(12) - 2=10 for first month
8 months
8c -2=total cost for 8 months
8 x 12 - 2= 94 for 8 months
2a+1 + 3a+2 +5a-9 you would start by combining like terms
2a+3a+5a= 10a
1+2-9= -6
10a-6=94
then subtract 94-6=88
then divide 88 by 10= 8.8
a=8.8
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Since it is AP, the common difference is same for any term:</u>
- (4x - 2) - (x + 1) = (6x - 3) - (4x - 2)
- 3x - 3 = 2x -1
- 3x - 2x = 3 - 1
- x= 2
<u>The first 3 terms are:</u>
<u>Since the last term is 18, it means this AP has 6 terms:</u>
<u>Answer: </u>as we need to find the value of x only, it is = 2
Given:
h = high quality bean ; costs 6 per pound
c = cheaper bean ; costs 3.25 per pound
160 pounds of blended coffee beans at 4.97 per pound
h + c = 160
6h + 3.25c = 160(4.97)
6h + 3.25c = 795.20
h = 160 - c
6(160-c) + 3.25c = 795.20
960 - 6c + 3.25c = 795.20
- 2.75c = 795.20 - 960
- 2.75c = -164.80
c = - 164.80 / -2.75
c = 59.92 or 60 pounds
h = 160 - c
h = 160 - 60
h = 100 pounds
Sarah must blend 100 pounds of high quality bean and 60 pounds of cheaper bean.
