4 0
Decreased by 20% means multiplied by 80%
80% of number=20
divide both sides by 4
20% of number=5
times 5 both sides
100% of number=25

the number is 25

Kwamee created a coffee blend for his cafe by mixing Kona beans and Fuji beans. Kona beans cost $11 per pound and Fuji beans cos
yKpoI14uk [10]
Let's use K for Kona and F for Fuji. The system of equations has to be a balanced system. For example, you can't mix the number of pounds of beans with the cost for each because pounds and dollars are different and you can only combine like terms...pounds with pounds and dollars with dollars. So let's start with the number of pounds. Since we don't know how much of each he bought we have the 2 unknowns, F and K, but we DO know that he bought 23 pounds total. So the first equation is
K + F = 23
Now let's see what we can do with the dollars. Again, we don't know how much he bought of each kind of coffee, but we do know that Kona beans cost $11 per pound and that Fuji beans cost $7.50 per pound, and we know that he spent a total of $197. So let's set that up:
11K + 7.50F = 197
Those are your 2 equations. It doesn't say you need to solve them, so you're done.

Write an equation of the line that passes me that passes through (2,-5) and is parrallel to the line 2y=3x+10
Otrada [13]

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel means same slope/gradient

2y = 3x + 10

y = 1.5x + 5

let equation be y = 1.5x + b

sub (2, -5)

-5 = 1.5(2) + b

b = -8

therefore y = 1.5x - 8

The mass of a cylinder made of barium with a height of 2 inches depends on the radius of the cylinder as defined by the function
svp [43]

Answer:

r=22.07\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>The correct function is</u></em>

m(r)=7.188\pi r^{2}

we have

System of equations

m=7.188\pi r^{2} -----> equation A

m=11,000 -----> equation B

Solve by substitution method

substitute equation B in equation A

11,000=7.188\pi r^{2}

Solve for r

Divide by 7.188π both sides

r^{2}=\frac{11,000}{7.188\pi}

square root both sides

r=22.07\ in
