Let x be the number of pounds of the $1.35 beans. The cost of those beans is $1.35 * x, or 1.35x.
<span>Let y be the number of pounds of the $1.05 beans. The cost of those beans is $1.05 * y, or 1.05y. </span>
<span>We know that 120 pounds of the mix sells for $1.15/pound, for a total of 120 * 1.15 = $138. </span>
<span>x + y = 120 </span>
<span>1.35(x) + (1.05)y = 138 </span>
<span>We can rewrite the first as </span>
<span>x = -y + 120 </span>
<span>Now we can substitute (-y + 120) in for (x) in the second equation, because we just proved they're equal. </span>
<span>1.35(x) + 1.05(y) = 138 </span>
<span>1.35(-y + 120) + 1.05y = 138 </span>
<span>-1.35y + 162 + 1.05y = 138 </span>
<span>-0.3y + 162 = 138 </span>
<span>-0.3y = -24 </span>
<span>y = 80 </span>
<span>And since x + y = 120, that means x = 40. </span>
<span>Check: </span>
<span>40 pounds of x at $1.35 costs 40 * 1.35, or $54. </span>
<span>80 pounds of y at $1.05 costs 80 * 1.05, or $84. </span>
<span>Do those add up to our target total, according to the question, of 120 * 1.15 = $138? </span>
Step-by-step explanation:
- h²=p²+b²
- h²=24²+7²
- h²=576+49
- h=√625
- h=25
tanA=p/h

Answer: the answer is $ 17,349.21 APEX
2/3 reciprocal is 3/2, & 8/3 reciprocal is 3/8. The numbers are just filled to find their reciprocal!
I got a. I multiplied 0.125 by 45 and got 5.625. I then divided 5.625 by five an got 1.125. I'm not really sure about my answer, so I did it another way. I divided .125 by five and got .025 so I multiplied that by 45 and got 1.125. I multiplied 1.125 by 1000 and got A.
