Answer:
the correct answer is B. 135 cu. units
<span>Answer is: 414 pounds of red fescue and 138 pounds of chewings fescue is needed to produce 552 pounds of mixture.</span>
<span>Explanation:
x - how much of red fescue is needed for one pound of mixture
y - how much of chewings fescue is needed for one pound of mixture</span>x*12+ y*16 = 15<span>x + y = 1
so, x=1-y
putting it into first line:</span><span>(1-y)*12 + y*16 = 15
12 - 12*y + 16*y = 15
4*y = 3
y=3/4
so, x= 1-3/4; x=1/4</span>So to produce 552 pounds of mixture we need..<span>To produce 1 pound of mixture we need: 3/4 pound of red fescue and 1/4 pound of chewing fescue so to produce 552 pounds of miture we need:
552*3/4 - red fescue, which is 414 pounds needed
and
552/4 - chewings fescue, which is 138 pounds needed</span>
f(-2) is the x value, fond the Y value of the graphed line when the line is at x -2.
The line is at Y = 2
The answer is B.
