Coffee beans worth $ 10.50 $10.50 per pound are to be mixed with coffee beans worth $ 13.00 $13.00 per pound to make 50 50 pounds of beans worth $ 11.50 $11.50 per pound. How many pounds of each type of coffee bean should be used?

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: the answer is (b) amie should have multiplied

step-by-step explanation: given a sphere and a cylinder with same radius and height.

let, 'r' be the radius of the cylinder and sphere and 'h' be the height of the cylinder. according to the question,

r = h.

now, the volume of the sphere will be

and the volume of the cylinder will be

therefore, we have

thus, ammie should have multiplied the volume of the sphere

its 8
