Continue to set-up the following problem.
Forrest runs a small landscaping business. He wants to order some bags of grass seed for the season. His supplier provides him with the following information.
A bag of Fescue weighs 5 pounds and costs $30 per bag.
A bag of Bluegrass weighs 7 pounds and costs $35 per bag.
A bag of Ryegrass weighs 10 pounds and costs $40 per bag.
Forrest bought 145 pounds of seeds at a cost of $715, and he bought twice as many bags of Fescue as bags of Bluegrass. How many bags of each type of seed did he buy?
Assume x, y, and z are defined as in the previous question.
One of the equations for the system is
A.
x + y + z = 145
B.
5x + 7y + 10z = 145
C.
5(30x) + 7(35y) + 10(40z) = 145
D.
30x + 35y + 40z = 145

- Parent Volunteer Laurie was completing the treasurer’s report for her son’s Boy Scout troop at the end of the school year. She didn’t remember how many boys had paid the $24 full-year registration fee and how many had paid a $16 partial-year fee. She knew that the number of boys who paid for a full-year was ten more than the number who paid for a partial-year. If $400 was collected for all the registrations, how many boys had paid the full-year fee and how many had paid the partial-year fee?arrow_forwardLaurie was completing the treasurer’s report for her son’s Boy Scout troop at the end of the school year.

- A campus student group is raising funds for charity by selling cups of boba tea. The expenses incurred by this student group are the cost of materials, estimated at $2 per cup (tea, boba, milk, sugar, cups, the big honking straws, napkins, etc.) and the $150 cost of renting the brewing and cooking space. The group will charge students $4 for each cup.a. Write down the associated cost, revenue, and profit functions. b. How many cups of boba must they sell to break even?c. What profit (or loss) results from the sale of 50 cups?arrow_forwardContinue to set-up the following problem. Forrest runs a small landscaping business. He wants to order some bags of grass seed for the season. His supplier provides him with the following information. A bag of Fescue weighs 5 pounds and costs $30 per bag. A bag of Bluegrass weighs 7 pounds and costs $35 per bag. A bag of Ryegrass weighs 10 pounds and costs $40 per bag. Forrest bought 145 pounds of seeds at a cost of $715, and he bought twice as many bags of Fescue as bags of Bluegrass. How many bags of each type of seed did he buy? Assume x, y, and z are defined as in the first question on this problem. Another equation for the system is A. x + y + z = 715 B. 5x + 7y + 10z = 715 C. 5(30x) + 7(35y) + 10(40z) = 715 D. 30x + 35y + 40z = 715arrow_forwardA Toot can be made in 30 minutes and has a feather attached to it. A Wheet requires 15 minutes, has two feathers, and is sprinkled with 0.5 oz of sequin powder. A Honk requires 30 minutes, has three feathers, and one oz. of sequin powder. The net profit is $0.40 per Toot, $0.50 per Wheet, and $0.80 per Honk. The following resources are available: 80 hrs of labor, 360 feathers, and 90 oz. of sequin powder. Determine the quantity of each type of noisemaker that maximizes profit.arrow_forward
