First, we must understand what standard form of a line is. Standard form of a line is written like such that A,B, and C are all integers, and A must be positive. First, we must calculate the slope of the line that passes through theses coordinates.
<span>As a refresher, this is the equation to figure out the slope of two coordinates.Now, we just simplify the numerator and denominator. <span> </span></span>
The next step is to utilize point-slope form, which is where is a point on the line. Of course, we already know that (7,-3) and (4,-8) both lie of the line. Therefore, plug in one fot he coordinates. Once converted into point-slope, we must then convert into standard form. This is what is demonstrated in the next step.
<span>Let's multiply all sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction early.Distribute the 5 to both terms in the parentheses.Subtract 9 from both sides.Subtract 5x on both sides.We aren't done yet! The coefficient of the x-term must be positive. Therefore, divide by -1 on both sides.<span>This is standard form now, so we are done!</span></span>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x
be the kg of coffee of brand A in the mix and
y
be the kg of coffee of brand B in the mix.
The total kg must be
50
.
x
+
y
=
50
The cost per kg of the mix must br
$
7.20
. For this, the total cost of the mix will be
6
x
+
8
y
, so the total cost per kg of the mix will be
6
x
+
8
y
50
.
6
x
+
8
y
50
=
7.20
Now that we have our two equations, we can solve.
6
x
+
8
y
=
7.20
⋅
50
6
x
+
8
y
=
360
From the first equation, we can multiply both sides by
6
to get:
6
x
+
6
y
=
300
Subtracting, we get:
2
y
=
60
y
=
30
Thus, we need
30
kg of brand B in our mix. This means that
50
−
30
=
20
kg will be of brand A.
