Answer:

35 pounds of tea for 80 cents.

15 pounds of tea for 60 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

x · 80 + y · 60 = 50 · 74

x + y = 50 · (- 60)

80x + 60y= 50 · 74

- 60x - 60y = -50 · 60

20x = 50 · (74-60) = 50 · 14

x = 50 · 14/20

35 pounds of tea for 80 cents.

y = 50 - 35 =

15 pounds of tea for 60 cents.

Answer:

35 pounds of tea for 80 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation::

value + value = value

80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50  

80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50  

20x = 14*50

x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)

50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)

5x-4y=-18 what is the three point on a graph for this equation
Tju [1.3M]
(1)Draw the "y" line . It goes up and down. 
<span>Make sure to mark the centimeters or quarter inches with little nobs. </span>
<span>Start at -20 and go to 10 </span>
<span>(2)Draw the "x" line. it goes side to side. </span>
<span>place the x line at the zero point of the y line. I'm sure you will see your paper looks like the letter "t". Perfectly at a right angle. you could use the corner of a book to square it. </span>

<span>Now for the maths 5x - 4y = -18. The most important symbol here is the "=" sign. </span>
<span>(3) rearrange the equation so that y is on one side of "=" and x is on the other side. </span>
<span>Remember if you add 10 to one side the of "=" , then for it to be equal, add 10 to the other. side also </span>
<span>so add 4y to both sides. add 18 to both sides . divide the whole of each side by 4. </span>
<span>5x - 4y + 4y + 18 = -18 + 4y + 18 </span>
<span>1.25x + 4.5 = y </span>
<span>(4) now write down on a peace of scrap paper, x=1, y= 5.75, x=2 y= ___ , x=3 y= ___ </span>
<span>(5) remember BEDMAS, and put 1 in the place of x and calculate what y is . </span>
<span>(6) get your ruler , line up x = 1 (ruler is going up and down) and draw a spot on what y = . Get two rulers if you must. </span>
<span>(7) </span>
<span>hey presto, you got your three points on a graph.</span>
