Let us say that:
x = mass from Earl Grey Tea
y = mass from Orange Pekoe Tea
So that:
x + y = 600
and that:
6 x + 4 y = 4.5 * 600
6 (600 – y) + 4 y = 2700
3600 – 6y + 4y = 2700
-2y = -900
y = 450 pounds
x = 600 – 450 = 150 pounds
Answer:
<span> Earl Grey Tea = 150
pounds</span>
<span>Orange Pekoe Tea = 450 pounds</span>
Answer: Choice A
x+3y = 14
======================================================
Explanation:
The general template for standard form is Ax+By = C, where A,B,C are integers.
This immediately rules out choices C and D, since they don't fit the format mentioned.
To see which of A or B we can eliminate or confirm, plug (x,y) coordinates from the graph into each answer choice. The ultimate goal is to get a true statement.
For example, the graph shows that (x,y) = (2,4) is on the line. Plug this into choice A to get...
x+3y = 14
2+3(4) = 14
2+12 = 14
14 = 14 this is true
So far so good. The point (2,4) is on the line x+3y = 14. Repeat those steps for (-1, 5) and you should get another true result. So that would confirm choice A is the answer. You only need a minimum of two points to define a unique line, meaning we only need to verify two points on the line. Anything more is just extra busy work.
---------
If we tried (2,4) with choice B, then,
5x+3y = 14
5(2)+3(4) = 14
10+12 = 14
22 = 14 which is false
This indicates (2,4) is not on the line 5x+3y = 14. We can rule out choice B because of this.
Answer:
68%
Step-by-step explanation:
The increase is (62 - 37), or 25, ounces. Comparing this to the original quantity (37 oz), we divide 25 oz. by 37 oz., obtaining 0.676 (a ratio). Multiplying this ratio by 100%, we get 68% (to the nearest percent).
Multiply the amount of the notebooks which is 3, by the cost of the notebook, which is $15.85. that is $47.55.
to find how much it costs with the coupon, do the notebook cost and subtract that by 0.75
$47.55 - 0.75 = $46.8
