Lauren in making 15 liters of mimosas for a brunch banquet. orange juice costs her $1.50 per liter and champagne costs her $12 per liter. how many liters of orange juice and how many liters of champagne should she use for the mimosas to cost lauren $5 per liter?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of liters of champagne Lauren uses. Then (15-c) will be the number of liters of orange juice. The total cost of the mix will be ...

  12c +1.50(15-c) = 5.00(15)

  10.5c = 52.50 . . . . . subtract 22.50, simplify

  52.50/10.5 = c = 5 . . . . divide by the coefficient of c

Then the amount of orange juice is ...

  15 -c = 15 -5 = 10 . . . . liters

Lauren should use 5 liters of champagne and 10 liters of orange juice.

good luck on your studies! : )

the answer is:

the lateral area is equal to

to find the lateral area of the square pyramid, first we need to find the perimeter of the base, and then, find the lateral area using the following formulas:

where,

s, is the base length

slant height, is the height of a the side of the pyramid

we are given:

now, calculating the perimeter of the base, we have:

then, calculating the lateral area:

hence, we have that the lateral area is equal to

have a nice day!
