Answer: 30 pounds of coffee beans worth $10.50 per pound was used.
20 pounds of coffee beans worth $13.00 per pound was used.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of coffee beans worth $10.50 per pound that should be mixed.
Let y represent the number of coffee beans worth $13.00 per pound that should be mixed.
50 pounds of beans worth $11.50 per pound is to be made. The total cost of the mixture would be
50 × 11.5 = 575
This means that
10.5x + 13y = 575 - - - - - - - 1
The total number of pounds of each type of coffee used is 50. This means that
x + y = 50
Substituting x = 50 - y into equation 1, it becomes.
10.5(50 - y) + 13y = 575
525 - 10.5y + 13y = 575
- 10.5y + 13y = 575 - 525
2.5y = 50
y = 50/2.5 = 20
x = 50 - 20= 30
Answer:
Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator. Multiply x x by 1 1 . Since g(f(x))=x g ( f ( x ) ) = x , f−1(x)=1x f - 1 ( x ) = 1 x is the inverse of f(x)=1x f ( x ) = 1 x .
Step-by-step explanation:

X = adults
Y = child
X+y=168
X=168-y
$10x + $7y = $1446
10(168-y) + 7y = 1446
1680 - 10y + 7y = 1446
-3 y = -234
Y = 78
X = 168-78
X = 90
$10*90 + $7*78 =
$900 + $546 = $1446
Simply divide the number of CDs by the number of shelves. 6422 / 26 = 247 247 CDs per shelf.
