A store sells toys in bulk. It sells wooden blocks for $5 a pound and plastic bricks for $10 a pound. How many pounds of wooden blocks and plastic bricks should be used to make a 10-pound mixture that would sell for $80?

4 pounds of wooden blocks and 6 pounds of plastic bricks should be used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Quantity of wooden blocks.

y = Quantity of plastic bricks.

As per given , we ahve

5x+10y=80        (i)

x+y=10     (ii)

Multiply 5 on both sides of (ii), we get

5x+5y=50   (iii)

Eliminate (i) from (iii), we get

5y=30

⇒ y= 6

Put y=6 in (ii), we get

x+6=10

⇒ x= 10-6= 4

Hence, 4 pounds of wooden blocks and 6 pounds of plastic bricks should be used.

it would more likely be bald eagle because its has more in the box so about 75%.

step-by-step explanation:

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
