Aldos coffee shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee costs Aldo $4.15 per pound, and type of B coffee costs $5.25 per pound. This month, Aldo made 119 pounds of the blend, for a total cost of $548.85. How many pounds of type B coffee did he use?

Let A represent amount of Type A coffee pounds used.  

Let B represent amount of Type B coffee pounds used

A + B = 156  

B = 156 - A  

A = 156 - B

5.80A + 4.65B = 826.60  

580 (156 - B) + 4.65B - 826.60 = 0  

904.8 - 5.80B + 4.65B - 826.60 = 0

904.8 - 1.15B - 826.60 = 0  

78.2 - 1.15B = 0  

78.2/1.15 = 1.15B/1.15

68 = B

B = 68 pounds of Type B coffee

There's many more steps you can take to check and etc but am too lazy to put down sorry.

step-by-step explanation:

i think because what else can be a sample of every member

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
