The cost of coffee is determined by the type of coffee beans that are mixed together. The cost of a local mix of Arabica and Rob

Andreyy89

Answer:

If a mixture contains 1000 pounds of Arabica beans, there should be <u>250 pounds of Robusta beans</u> in the mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

700A+1,200R=1,000,000

700(1000) +1,200R=1,000,000 - First, plug in the A value and simplify .

700000+1,200R=1,000,000 - Then, subtract 700,000 from both sides.

1,200R=300,000 - Finally, divide by 1,200 on both sides of the equation.

R=250 - This is your value for R, or the Robusta beans.

<u>250 pounds of Robusta beans</u>

Hope this helps!

Determine whether ⊂, ⊆, both, or neither can be placed in the blank to make the following true. {prosciutto, olives, kumquats, l

DochEvi [55]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two sets of elements, we will call them A and B. Let's remember what does each symbol represents:

We say that A ⊆ B (A is included in B) if every element of A is also an element of B.

We say that A ⊂ B (A is strictly included in B) if every element of A is also an element of B, but there is at least one element of B that's not an element of A.

If we look our sets, we can see that all the elements on the second set are included on the first one. But the olives are on the first set and not in the second one. Therefore, the symbol that can be placed in the blank is ⊃.

If we only can use ⊂ or ⊆, without changes, the answer would be neither.

nydimaria [60]

First, list all the given information:
*100 miles/week
*25 miles/gallon
*$4/gallon
*weekly expenditure reduced by $5

The easiest approach to use here is the dimensional analysis. Cancel out like units if they appear both in the numerator and denominator side. Solve first the original cost. The solution is as follows:

100 miles/week * 1 gal/25 miles * $4/gal = $16/week

The reduced cost would be:
16 - 5 = (New average miles/week) * 1 gal/25 miles * $4/gal
New average miles/week = 68.75 miles/week
