X*80+y*60= 50*74
x +y =50 | * ( -60)
80x + 60y= 50*74
-60x - 60y=-50*60
---------------------------
20x= 50*(74-60)=50*14
x=50*14/20=35 pounds of 80 cents tea
y=50-35=15 pounds of 60 cents tea
Bobby should grow an amount greater than 70-61 = 9 inches to become taller than 70 inches. Therefore, the correct answer is that Bobby must grow an amount of x> 9 inches to be taller than 70 inches.
Answer:
3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let it be
C (5;4) , A (2;1) ; B(7;6)
Suppose that C divide the line AB in ratio m/n from point A (AC is m, CB is n)
Use the formula xc=(m*xb+n*xa)/ (m+n)
5=(m*7+2n)/(m+n)
5m+5n= 7m+2n
2m=3n
m/n=3/2
