If we used “a” tons of grade A and “b” tons of grade B we would get a + b tons of mixture.
Converting to costs we get 36a + 24b = 33(a + b)
36a + 24b = 33a + 33b
36a - 33a = 33b - 24b
3a = 9b
a = 3b
This means the mixture contains 3 times as much of grade A than grade B
The ratio of grade A : grade B = 3 : 1
For example if we mixed 3 tons of A with 1 ton of B we would get 4 tons of mixture
The cost would be 3 x 36 + 1 x 24 = 108 + 24 = $132 for 4 tons = $33 per ton
Y=Mx + c
The slope is given already so it will be :
Y=-4x+c
Now you can find C by replacing the given points
-3=-4(8)+c
C=9
Final answer is :
Y= -4x+9
Answer:
f(9) = -37
Step-by-step explanation:
f(n) = -5n + 8
f(9) = -5(9) + 8
f(9) = -45 + 8
f(9) = -37
X>7/6
Combine like terms
Subtract 2.75x from both sides
Combine like terms
Divide -1.5 from both sides
