A grocer wants to mix two kinds of candy. One kind sells for $1.15 per pound, and the other sells for
$2.75 per pound. He wants to mix a total of 24 pounds and sell it for $1.30 per pound. How many
pounds of each kind should he use in the new mix? (Round off the answers to the nearest hundredth.)

Answers

Answer 1

Hey there!

This grocer is mixing two kinds of coffee. I always love the smell of coffee!

We will say that x sells for $1.15 per pound and y sells for $2.75 per pound.

Altogether there are 24 pounds of coffee he is selling.

The algebraic equation would be x + y = 24

At $1.30 per pound, he will make 24 * $1.30 = $31.2

So, how many of the x and y kinds of coffee should he use to make the $1.30 per pound mixture which will net him $31.2?

The algebraic equation would be 1.15x + 2.75y = 31.2

We now have two equations :

x+y = 24

1.15x + 2.75y = 31.2

Substituting x= 24 -y in the second equation gives us

1.15(24-y) + 2.75y = 31.2

27.6 - 1.15y + 2.75y = 31.2

27.6 + 1.6y = 31.2

1.6y = 31.2 - 27.6

0.3y= 3.6

y= 2.25

x + y = 24

x + 2.25 = 24

x = 24 -2.25

x = 21.75

If y=2.25, then x= 21.75 as well.

So, he will use 21.75 pounds of the $1.15 per/lb one and another 2.25 pounds of the $2.75per/lb one.

~Done~

Find the area of the figure

Answers

Answer:

100 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

this right awnser

Answer:

Formula for area of circle (since two semi circles form a full circle);

a = π[tex]r^{2}[/tex]

First, figure out our radius,

D/2 = Radius

10/2 = 5 is our radius.

Plug in your values:

a = π[tex]r^{2}[/tex]

a = 3.14(5^5)

a = 3.14(25)

a = 78.5 is the area of the two semi circles.

Now the square;

A = L x W

A = 10(10)

A = 100.

Add your areas;

78.5 + 100

= 178.5 mm2

Answer:

Given dimensions of room:

length = 12 ftwidth = 14 ftheight = 8 ft

Given cost of materials:

floor tiles = $4 per ft²wall & ceiling paint = $16 per 146 ft²

Total square feet of floor = length × width

                                          = 12 × 14

                                          = 168 ft²

Total cost of flooring = $4 × 168

                                   = $672.00

Total square feet to be painted = area of walls + area of ceiling

                                                    = 2(12 × 8) + 2(14 × 8) + (12 × 14)

                                                    = 584 ft²

Total cost of paint = (584 ÷ 146) × $16

                              = $64.00

Total cost to tile and paint the room = $672 + $64

                                                            = $736.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Identity the variable:

Initial Velocity is 35.

Initial Height is 204

Final Height is 0.

What looking for the time.

So we have

Use Quadratic Formula,

A is -16, B is 35 , C is 204.

So we have

China could expect a quantity of visitors of 8.512 × 10⁶ in Chicago.

How to apply direct proportions

A direct proportion is a direct relationship between two variables, which in this case is represented between the quantity of tourists in the city of Chicago and the population of the country of origin.

Let suppose the existence of direct proportionality and world has a population of 9000 million people, the quantity of Chinese visitors in the city of Chicago is determined by the following formula:

x = (1.393 × 10⁹ / 9 × 10⁹) × 55 × 10⁶

x = 8.512 × 10⁶

The cone shaped roof has the height of 30ft and the radius of 15ft find it's lateral area and the surface area

Answers

Answer:

Lateral surface area of cone is 1580 feet²Surface area of cone is 2287 feet²

[tex]\\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Height of cone shaped roof is 30 ft and radius is 15 ft.

To calculate the lateral surface area and Surface area of the cone we will use the formula given below:

[tex]\\[/tex]

[tex]\star \: { \underline { \boxed { \purple{ \pmb { \sf{Lateral \: surface \: Area _{(cone)} = \pi rl}}}}}}[/tex]

[tex]\\[/tex]

[tex]\star{\underline{ \boxed{ \purple{ \pmb { \sf{Surface \: area _{(cone)} = \pi rl + \pi {r}^{2} }}}}}}[/tex]

[tex]\\[/tex]

Finding the Slant height of the cone:

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \:L = \sqrt{ {(r)}^{2} + {(h)}^{2} } \\ [/tex]

[tex] \dashrightarrow \: \: L = \sqrt{225 +900 } \\ [/tex]

[tex] \dashrightarrow \: \: L = \sqrt{1125 } \\ [/tex]

[tex]{ \dashrightarrow \: \: { \pink{ \boxed { \: L = 33.541 }}}}\\ [/tex]

Hence, Slant height of cone is 33.54 feet.

Substituting values in above formula:

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \: LSA = \pi rl \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \: LSA = \dfrac{22}{7} \times 15 \times 33.54 \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \: LSA = \dfrac{22 \times 15 \times 33054}{7} \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \: LSA = \dfrac{11068.2}{7} \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \:{ \boxed { \pmb{ \sf {\pink{ LSA \: \approx1580 \: {ft}^{2}}}} }} \\ [/tex]

[tex]\\[/tex]

Hence, Lateral surface area of cone is 1580 feet²

Now, Calculating surface area:

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \:SA = \pi rl + \pi {r}^{2} \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \:SA = \pi (15)(33.54) + \pi {(15)}^{2} \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \:SA = \pi(503.1) + 22 5 \pi \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \: SA = 728.1 \pi \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \:SA = 728.1 \times 3.14 \\ [/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow \: \:{ \boxed{ \pmb{ \pink{ \sf{SA \approx2287 \: {ft}^{2} }}}}} [/tex]

[tex]\\[/tex]

Hence, surface area of cone is 2287 feet²
