Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
1 cookie = 1/16 of a pound of cookie
If we want to find how many cookies can be made by 3/2 pounds ( 1.5 pounds) then we need to divide 3/2 pounds by 1/16
=> 
=> 
=> 3*8
=> 24 cookies
Answer:
50(115-y) + 25y = 4125 [from eq2]
5750 - 50y + 25y = 4125 [distribute]
5750 - 25y = 4125
-25y = -1625
y = 65 [divide both sides by (-25)]
There are 65 small boxes.
Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x:
x = 115 - y
x = 115 - 65
x = 50
There are 50 large boxes.

Answer:
20/3 pounds of coffee that costs $12 per pound and 40/3 pounds of coffee that costs $9 per pound are required
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount of coffee that costs $12 per pound
Cost of x amount of this type coffee = 12x
We are supposed to find How much of each should be used to produce 20 pounds of the new blend that costs $10 per pound
So, Amount of coffee required that costs $9 per pound = 20-x
Cost of (20-x) amount of this type of coffee = 9(20-x)
So, 
Amount of coffee that costs $12 per pound required is
Amount of coffee that costs $9 per pound required = 20-x=
Hence 20/3 pounds of coffee that costs $12 per pound and 40/3 pounds of coffee that costs $9 per pound are required
To get the area of the shaded region, we must subtract the area of the bigger triangle on the outside and the area of the smaller triangle inside the bigger triangle.
Set up the equation:
Area of big triangle - Area of small triangle = 

So the area of the shaded region is 96.
Hope that helps!
