Hailey's mixing two different coffee blends. Represent them by x and y (in pounds). Then x + y = 5 lb, and x = 5 - y.How much puree Sum. beans are we talking about here?
0.20x +0.80y = 0.60(5 lb) Mult all 3 terms by 100 to get rid of factions:
20x + 80 y = 300. Substitute 5-y for x:
20(5-y) + 80y = 300 => 100-20y + 80y = 300 => 60y = 200, so y = 20/6 or 10/3 lb den x = 5-10/3, or x =5/3 lb
Use 5/3 lb of the first blend and 10/3 lb of the second blend to come up with 5 lb of a 60% blend.
Answer:
18 pots.
Step-by-step explanation:
10/2 to get one of the longs. 5(2) to get the other one. 10.
8/4 to get one of the wides. 2(2) to get the other one. 4.
There are 4 corners so there are 4 extra pots. 4.
Add the numbers: 4+4+10. 18
Are you sure this question is correct? It would be a decimal of 34.5 girls
Your answer would be 46.50 because you would divide 31 in half (for the 50%) then add that to the 31. So 31+15.50= $46.50 hope this helps. If not let me know
