quick help with a math word problem MEDALS WILL BE REWARDED read full replys before answering
what is the question?
This is the word problem the debate club needs $240.00 to attend a debate tournament the club decides to sell cups of iced tea and lemonade at baseball games. iced tea will be sold for $0.50 and lemonade will be sold for $0.80 per cup
just add and you will gt the amount of $240.00
the first question to it is write an equation to find how many cups of each bevergae must be sold to rais $240.00 My answer to this one was: x=number of cups of iced tea y=number of cups of lemonade 0.5x+0.8y=240, 5x+8y+2400, 8y+-5x+2400
yes that is correct
the second question to this problem was: Graph the equation. what are the x- and y-intercepts my answer was: x-intercept- y=0, -5/8x+300=0, -5/8x=-300 x=-300/(-5/8), x=-300(-8/5), x=2400/5 x=480, x-intercept = (480,0) y-intercept- x=0, y=-5/8(0)+300, y=300 y-intercept = (0,300)
but this part of the question also acts for a graph i dont know how to graph this
idk either
um try google
google isnt helpful with this graphing stuff
yea ig ill try to figure it out
ok thanks
