A coffee mixture has beans that sell for $0.20 a pound and beans that sell for $0.68. If 120 pounds of beans create a mixture wo
atroni [7]
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>

Sara has $65 and wants to buy the following items from a store. Board game: $14.95 Building blocks: $25.49 Art kit: $35.79 At th
valina [46]

The correct statement is Sara can afford to purchase the items because the final price of the items is $60.

The first step is to determine the total cost of the items Sara wants to buy. The total cost can be determined by adding the cost of the items together.

Total cost = $14.95 + $25.49 + $35.79 = $76.23

The second step is to determine the cost of the items after the discount.

Price of the items = total cost x (1 - discount)

= total cost x (1 - 1/4)

total cost x 3/4

$76.23 x 3/4 = $57.17

The third step is to determine the cost of the items after tax.

Cost = (1.05) x $57.17 =$60.03
