Let's use K for Kona and F for Fuji. The system of equations has to be a balanced system. For example, you can't mix the number of pounds of beans with the cost for each because pounds and dollars are different and you can only combine like terms...pounds with pounds and dollars with dollars. So let's start with the number of pounds. Since we don't know how much of each he bought we have the 2 unknowns, F and K, but we DO know that he bought 23 pounds total. So the first equation is
K + F = 23
Now let's see what we can do with the dollars. Again, we don't know how much he bought of each kind of coffee, but we do know that Kona beans cost $11 per pound and that Fuji beans cost $7.50 per pound, and we know that he spent a total of $197. So let's set that up:
11K + 7.50F = 197
Those are your 2 equations. It doesn't say you need to solve them, so you're done.

Reduce the fraction:<br> 7b-14b²/42b²21b
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

(1-2b)/126b^2

Step-by-step explanation:

(7b-14b^2)/(42b^2*21b)

factor out the 7b,

[7b(1-2b)]/882b^3

[7b(1-2b)]/[7b(126b^2)]

cancel out the 7b's

(1-2b)/126b^2

The volume of a cylinder is 770 cm. It's height is 5 cm. Find its approximate radius.
Alinara [238K]

Hey there,

The equation for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr²h.

The first step into finding the radius is to plug in what you already know into the equation:

  • 770 = πr²5

We divide both sides by 5:

  • 154 = πr²

Now we divide both sides by π:

  • 49.0197224723 = r²

Finally we just do the square root of 49.0197224723:

  • 7.0014086063 = r

The radius therefore would be about 7cm.

Hope I helped,

Amna
