Model With Mathematics Keisha is catering a
luncheon. She has $30 to spend on a mixture of
Cheddar cheese and Swiss cheese. How many
pounds of cheese can Keisha get if she buys
part only Cheddar cheese? Only Swiss cheese? A
mixture of both cheeses? What linear equation
in standard form can she use to model the
situation

Respuesta :

Answer:

if she has to buy from a mixture of both the cheeses then equation will become;

N x C + M x S = 30

Explanation:

Let C represents the value of cheddar cheese per pound

Let S represents the value of swiss cheese per pound.

Equation when she only buys cheddar cheese will be;

N x C = 30,

Here N is the number of pounds of cheddar cheese

Equation when she only buys swiss cheese will be;

M x S = 30,

Here M is the number of pounds of swiss cheese

Now if she has to buy from a mixture of both the cheeses then equation will become;

N x C + M x S = 30
