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:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following function:
By definition, the average rate of change is given by:
We evaluate the function for the given values:
For x = 7:
For x = 14:
Then, replacing values we have:
Answer:
the average rate of change from x = 7 to x = 14 is:
a. 23.22
the answer is 7 because all of the other numbers opposites aren't negative
