A party mix is made by adding nuts that sell for $2.50 per kg to a cereal mixture that sells for $1 per kg. How much of each should be added to obtain 60 kg of a mix
that will sell for $1.40 per kg?

1. The amount of nuts is ____kg and cereal mixture is ____ kg to obtain 60 kg of a mix that will sell for $1.40 per kg.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

n=16 kg

c=44 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

n=nuts at $2.50 per kg

c=cereal at $1 per kg

n+c=60 (1)

2.5n + c=1.40(60) (2)

From (1)

n=60-c

Substitute n=60-c into (2)

2.5n + c=1.40(60)

2.5(60-c) +c=84

150-2.5c+c=84

-1.5c=84-150

-1.5c= -66

Divide both sides by -1.5

c=44 kg

Substitute c=44 into (1)

n+c=60

n+44=60

n=60-44

=16

n=16 kg

The amount of nuts is 16 kg and cereal mixture is 44 kg to obtain 60 kg of a mix that will sell for $1.40 per kg.

which is an acute angle as its less than 90

pls mark me brainliest pls

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Acute

A=107 deg

B=?

Cross multiply

The ten's digit in a two-digit number is 1 greater than the one's digit. If we interchange the digits in the number, we obtain a new number that, when added to the original number, results in the sum 187. Find this number.

Answers

Answer:

98

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the tens place is x and the ones place is y.

The tens place is one more than the one's place:

x = y + 1

Reversing the digits, plus the original number, is 187:

(10x + y) + (10y + x) = 187

11x + 11y = 187

x + y = 17

Substituting:

y + 1 + y = 17

2y = 16

y = 8

x = 9

The number is 98.

Write an equation of the line that satisfies the given conditions. Give the equation (a) in slope-intercept form and (b) in standard form.
Through (-2,4): perpendicular to x=8
(a) The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is_____.

Answers

Answer:

  y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line x=8 is a vertical line. The perpendicular line will be horizontal, with a slope of 0. In order for it to go through the given point, the y-intercept must match the y-value of the point. The equation is ...

  y = 0x +4 . . . . . slope-intercept form with slope explicitly shown as 0

How many solution does this following equation have? -7x-10-15x=-22x+83 A. No solution B. Exact 1 solution C. Infinite solution

Answers

Answer:

A. No Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x we would just simplify the equation so it is easier to work with. First we will combine the -7x and the -15x and when you combine then you will get -22x so the equation will look like this [tex]-22x-10=-22x+83[/tex] now we would add 22x to both sides and our equation will be [tex]-10=83[/tex] and that is not correct so the answer would be A. No solution

Answer:

A. No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x - 10 - 15x = -22x + 83

-22x - 10 = -22x + 83

0 = 93

Zero doesn't equal to 93, so there are no solutions.

Given: P∈ BC , Pabc = 45, Pabp = 30, Papc = 35. Find AP.

Answers

Answer:

  10

Step-by-step explanation:

  Pabp = AB +BP +AP

  Papc = AP +PC +CA

So the sum of perimeters of the two smaller triangles is ...

  Pabp +Papc = AB +BP +AP + AP +PC +CA

  = (AB +BP +PC +CA) +2AP

  = Pabc +2AP

Filling in numbers, we have ...

  30 +35 = 45 +2AP

  20 = 2AP . . . . subtract 45

  10 = AP . . . . . . divide by 2

The length of AP is 10 units.

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.

So, option A is a valid reason for the given quadrilateral to be a parallelogram.

The other options do not necessarily hold true for all parallelograms. For example, the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other and are congruent, but not all quadrilaterals with bisecting diagonals are parallelograms.

Isabella uses one-foot cubical blocks to build a rectangular fort that is 12 feet long, 10 feet wide, and 5 feet high. The floor and the four walls are all one foot thick. How many blocks does the fort contain?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well this question is asking us to find the volume of the rectangular prism.

Dimensions)

L: 12

W: 10

H:5

The formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is l*w*h or B*h.

So 12*10 = 120

120 * 5 = 600 blocks

Thus,

the fort contains 600 blocks.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{280\ blocks}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The blocks at the base are:

Length * Width = 10 * 12 = 120 blocks

On the 2nd Layer:

=> 9+11+9+11 = 40 blocks

There are 3 more layers as the 2nd layer:

So, the blocks of these 4 layers are => 4 * 40 = 160 blocks

Total Blocks = Base Blocks + Layer Blocks

=> 120 + 160

=> 280 blocks

Each marking on the graph represents one unit of distance. The two axes meet at the origin, where the coordinate point is equal to [tex](0,0)[/tex].

So, you can count backwards once from the origin to get your x-value ⇒ [tex]-1[/tex] and count up upwards four times from [tex]x=-1[/tex] to get your y-value ⇒ [tex]4[/tex].

Function f is given by the table of values shown.
x|0|1|2|3
f(x)|7|0|-5|-8
If function fis reflected across the x-axis to obtain function g, complete the table of values which represents function g.​

Answers

Answer:

x | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

f(x) | - 7 | 0 | 5 | 8

Step-by-step explanation:

When you reflect a point say across the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same, but the y-coordinate is transformed into its opposite (its sign is changed). Therefore if the function f( x ) is reflected across the x - axis, it's new function would be y = - f( x ). This new function is function g, so you can also say y = - g( x ).

Given the following table ...

x | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

f(x) | 7 | 0 | - 5 | - 8 ... we can keep the x - values constant, but take the opposite of each y - value, or " f( x ). " Doing so the new table should be the following -

x | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

f(x) | - 7 | 0 | 5 | 8 ... note that 0 remains constant as you can't take it's opposite, it remains zero. Therefore, the function g is represented by the above table.

The values of g(x) are as follows:

x    | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

g(x) | -7 | 0 | 5 |  8

What is a Function?

A mathematical phrase, rule, or law that establishes the link between an independent variable and a dependent variable (the dependent variable).

As per the given data:

We are given a function f(x) and a table where the values of f(x) at different values of x is given.

The table for the values is as follows:

x    | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

f(x) | 7 | 0 |-5 | -8

We have to find the values for the function g(x) which is obtained when f(x) is reflected about the x-axis.

When any function is reflected about the x-axis, the values of the y-axis will have their signs changed, i.e. the y-axis values will become -ve if they are positive and +ve if they are -ve.

For g(x):

x    | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

g(x) | -7 | 0 | 5 |  8

Hence, the values of g(x) are as follows:

x    | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3

g(x) | -7 | 0 | 5 |  8
