Answer:
35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,
8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4
simplify,
8x + 300 - 6x = 370
2x + 300 = 370
and solve.
2x = 70
x = 35
This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.
We can subtract that from 50 to find,
50 - 35 = 15,
15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.
Answer: A y=4x -5 and y=4x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
They have no solutions because they have the same slopes but different y intercepts. That works with any equation.
Answer:
15.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Patty is building a rope ladder tree house she needs two 4 foot pieces of rope for the sides of the ladder.
She needs 6 pieces of rope each 15 inches long for the steps.
Question asked:
How many feet of rope does patty need to make the ladder ?
Solution:
She needs for the sides of the ladder = Two 4 foot pieces of rope
= 2
4 feet = 8 feet
She needs for the steps of the ladder = 6 pieces of 15 inches long rope
= 6
15 inches = 90 inches
Convert 90 inches into feet:-
12 inches = 1 feet
1 inches = 
90 inches = 
Patty needs total rope = 8 feet + 7.5 feet
= 15.5 feet
Thus, Patty needs 15.5 feet of rope to make the ladder.
I think the answer would be 24 but im not 100% sure
