Acoffee distributor needs to mix a(n) organic free trade coffee blend that normally sells for $8.30 per pound with a rift valley coffee blend that normally sells for $13.90 per pound to create 80 pounds of a coffee that can sell for $10.82 per pound. how many pounds of each kind of coffee should they mix?
they must mix
pounds of the organic free trade blend
pounds of the rift valley blend.
round your answers to the nearest whole number of pounds.

They must mix

_44_ pounds of the Organic Free Trade Blend

_36__ pounds of the Rift Valley Blend.

Round your answers to the nearest whole number of pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula you are using is:

Total price * total amount= Organic price * amount organic + Rift price * amount rift

First we will simplify it by calculating it for each pound of final mix.

So this is 10.82 * 1 = 8.30 * x + 13.90 * y.

Since the total amount should be 1 pound, you could say that x+y = 1, or that y = 1-x.

If you fill this in you get

10.82 * 1 = 8.30 * x + 13.90 * (1-x)

Which you can solve as follows.

10.82 * 1 = 8.30 * x + 13.90 - 13.90x

10.82 = 13.90 - 5.6x

-5.6x = -3.08

x = -3.08/-5.6 = 0.55

So you will need 0.55 of Organic coffee for each pound of the final mix.

So in total you will need 0.55 * 80 = 44 pounds of Organic coffee.

So you need 80 - 44 = 36 pounds of Rift Valley Coffee.

c

step-by-step explanation:

it isn't d, because the interquartile range is from 27-57. and the interquartile range is basically half the data, it's pretty obvious.

it isn't b, because like i said earlier, the interquartile range is from 27-57. 57-27 is 30. the real range has to be longer

not a either. although it looks like it, 3/4 of the data is not greater than 27. but if c is wrong than this should be correct

the correct answer is c, because 13 is the point in which the plot starts

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation
