Answer: 30 pounds of coffee beans worth $10.50 per pound was used.
20 pounds of coffee beans worth $13.00 per pound was used.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of coffee beans worth $10.50 per pound that should be mixed.
Let y represent the number of coffee beans worth $13.00 per pound that should be mixed.
50 pounds of beans worth $11.50 per pound is to be made. The total cost of the mixture would be
50 × 11.5 = 575
This means that
10.5x + 13y = 575 - - - - - - - 1
The total number of pounds of each type of coffee used is 50. This means that
x + y = 50
Substituting x = 50 - y into equation 1, it becomes.
10.5(50 - y) + 13y = 575
525 - 10.5y + 13y = 575
- 10.5y + 13y = 575 - 525
2.5y = 50
y = 50/2.5 = 20
x = 50 - 20= 30

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) divide equilateral tri from the middle you will get two 30-60-90 triangles
2) by using pythagorean law & trigimintory, you will get two unknowns (height and side length) and two functions
Answer:
C = 17/7 or 2 3/7
D = -4/7
Step-by-step explanation:
3C+4D=5
2C+5D=2
2C = 2 - 5D
C = 1 - 2.5D
3(1 - 2.5D) + 4D = 5
3 - 7.5D + 4D = 5
-3.5D = 2
D = -4/7
C = 1 - 2.5(-4/7)
C = 1 + 10/7 = 17/7
