We know there is a total of 100 cups of tea sold and that there are two types of teas involved.
x = tea 1
y = tea 2
We can set up two equations and use substitution to solve:
x + y = 100 cups of tea sold total
One of the teas sold 5 times as much as the other. Let's believe that this was tea 1:
x = 5y (5 times as much means multiplication, and 'other' means y)
If x = 5y, then this must be true for the first equation. So we'll test this by plugging it in:
5y + y = 100
6y = 100
y = about 16.67
Now we can use this number to solve for x in the original equation:
x + 16.67 = 100
x = 83.33
Hey there,
2 - 8x + 4x + 4
2 - 8(3) + 4(3) + 4
2 - 24 + 12 + 4
-6
Hope this helps :))

Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The equation would be B) y = 5x + 17
Step-by-step explanation:
To start, you need to locate the slope of the first equation. Since the slope is the coefficient of x, we know it to be -1/5. Now, the perpendicular slope is the opposite and reciprocal of that, which makes the new slope 5.
Now that we have this, we can use the point and the slope in point-slope form to get the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 7 = 5(x + 2)
y - 7 = 5x + 10
y = 5x + 17
