Answer:

in order to use up all the eggs and cream, the number of quarts of each flavor that should be made is;

Creamy vanilla x = 200 quarts

Continental mocha y = 100 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the number of quarts of Creamy Vanilla and Continental Mocha that should be made in order to use up all the eggs and cream respectively.

For Creamy Vanilla go 2 eggs and 3 cups of cream

For Continental Mocha go 1 egg and 3 cups of cream.

Total number of eggs = 500 eggs

Total number of cream cups = 900 cups.

For the eggs;

2 eggs × x + 1 egg × y = 500

2x + y = 500 .......1

For the cream cups;

3 cups × x + 3 cups × y = 900

3x + 3y = 900

Dividing through by 3

x + y = 300 .......2

Solving the simultaneous equation;

Subtracting equation 2 from 1

(2x + y) - (x+y) = 500-300

2x -x = 200

x = 200

Substituting x = 200 into equation 2;

200 + y = 300

y = 300 - 200

y = 100

Therefore, in order to use up all the eggs and cream, the number of quarts of each flavor that should be made is;

Creamy vanilla x = 200 quarts

Continental mocha y = 100 quarts

Lorico [155]

Answer:

R290.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = charge before he put his prices up

New charge = R320

Percentage increase in price = 7%

x + 7% of x = 320

x + 0.07 * x = 320

x + 0.07x = 320

1.07x = 320

x = 320/1.07

x = 299.06542056074

Approximately

x = R290.1

Charge before he put his prices up = R290.1

A newspaper editor starts a retirement savings plan in which $225 per month is deposited at the beginning of each month into an
qwelly [4]

Answer: the value of this investment after 20 years is $112295.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining future value involving deposits at constant intervals. It is expressed as

S = R[{(1 + r)^n - 1)}/r][1 + r]

Where

S represents the future value of the investment.

R represents the regular payments made(could be weekly, monthly)

r = represents interest rate/number of interval payments.

n represents the total number of payments made.

From the information given,

Since there are 12 months in a year, then

r = 0.066/12 = 0.0055

n = 12 × 20 = 240

R = $225

Therefore,

S = 225[{(1 + 0.0055)^240 - 1)}/0.0055][1 + 0.0055]

S = 225[{(1.0055)^240 - 1)}/0.0055][1.0055]

S = 225[{(3.73 - 1)}/0.0055][1.0055]

S = 225[{(2.73)}/0.0055][1.0055]

S = 225[496.36][1.0055]

S = $112295.2
