Given : A homemade lip balm consists of coconut oil and  beeswax,  

Coconut oil costs $0.50 per ounce

beeswax costs $2.00 per ounce.

6 ounces of coconut  oil and 5 ounces of beeswax are used to create the lip balm mixture,

To Find : Value of a  & b

Solution:

a  = Cost of coconut oil in mixture

coconut oil in mixture = 6 ounces

Coconut oil costs $0.50 per ounce

=>  Cost of coconut oil in mixture = 6 * 0.5  = 3 $

a = 3 $

b  = Cost of beeswax  in mixture

beeswax  in mixture = 5 ounces

beeswax  costs $0.50 per ounce

=>  Cost of beeswax  in mixture = 5 * 2 = 10 $

b = 10 $

Total Cost = 3 + 10 = 13 $

Total Mixture = 6 + 5 = 11 ounces

Cost of mixture = 13/11 per ounce
