If we used “a” tons of grade A and “b” tons of grade B we would get a + b tons of mixture.
Converting to costs we get 36a + 24b = 33(a + b)
36a + 24b = 33a + 33b
36a - 33a = 33b - 24b
3a = 9b
a = 3b
This means the mixture contains 3 times as much of grade A than grade B
The ratio of grade A : grade B = 3 : 1
For example if we mixed 3 tons of A with 1 ton of B we would get 4 tons of mixture
The cost would be 3 x 36 + 1 x 24 = 108 + 24 = $132 for 4 tons = $33 per ton

Answer:
It is C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y= 3x-17
Step-by-step explanation:
When finding a parallel equation to y=mx+b, mx will always stay the same. So we have to find b.
In order to do this you plug the parallel lines passing point into the equation.
-5(y) goes into the y's spot. 4(x) goes into the x's spot.
-5 = 3 x 4 + b
-5 = 12 + b
-5 - 12 = 12 - 12 + b
-17 = b
y=3x-17
