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
Answer:
The distance is 8 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to write an equation for each of chauffeured car services.
The first one = 28 + 2x = ?
The second one = 13 + 5x = ?
Next, we need to figure out what x is. Usually I just plug in random numbers, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it.
I first plugged in 2 as x.
28 + 4 = 32
13 + 10 = 23
That didn't work, so I then plugged in 5.
28 + 10 = 38
13 + 25 = 38
So 5 would be the correct answer for what is the distance.
