Answer:

x = 9

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Let :

Kenyan French roast coffee = x

Cost per x = $8

Sumatran Coffee = y

Cost per y = $10

x + y = 18 - - - - (1)

8x + 10y = 9 * 18 ;

8x + 10y = 162 - - - - (2)

From (1):

x = 18 - y

Put x = 18 - y in (2)

8(18 - y) + 10y = 162

144 - 8y + 10y = 162

2y = 162 - 144

2y = 18

y = 9

x = 18 - y

x = 18 - 9

x = 9

Can you guys actually answer this question instead of sending links please?

Answer:

The Y intercept would be 1. The slope would be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Y intercept is where a line intercepts, or crosses the Y axis. As you can see in the graph, the line crosses the Y axis at point 1.

To find slope here, you can do the rise divided by the run.

To find this, choose two points. We can use point (0, 1) and point (1, 3)

Next, find the rise, or the vertical distance between the two points. In this case, it would be 2.

Then, find the run, or the horizontal distance between the two points. In this case, it would be 1.

Finally, divide the rise by the run, and create the fraction rise over run, or in this case 2/1.

8. By area, the former U.S.S.R. was the largest country, having 8.649x106 square miles of land. At this time Canada was the seco
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Canada was 418.912 sq miles smaller than the USSR.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: I don't know if this question required a calculator so I'll answer without one.

Symbols:

  • USSR area in sq miles = u
  • Canada area in square miles = c

u<em> </em>= 8.649×106

c<em> </em>= 4.797×106

x = how much less area

u<em> </em>= c + x

  • USSR area = Canada area + number of sq miles less

Math:

u = c + x

  • plug in values

8.649×106 = 4.797×106 + x

  • divide by 106 to get rid of the ridiculously large numbers.

8.649 = 4.797 + \frac{x}{106}

  • subtract (use calculator or just traditional subtraction methods)

3.952 = \frac{x}{106}

  • multiply both sides by 106 (use calculator or traditional methods)

418.912 = x

Find the percent of change in altitude if a weather balloon moves from 50 ft to 95 ft. Describe the percent of change as an incr
Luda [366]
The change of the weather balloon would be 90% increase. to get the percentage of change we have to subtract 50 ft to 95 ft, it will then give us the 45 ft change. Then we have to divide 45 ft by 50 ft times 100, it will give us 90%. Then since the change and percentage of change is positive then the change could be describe as increasing.
