A two-pound mixture of raisins and peanuts costs $7.50. The raisins cost $3.25 a pound and the peanuts costs $5.75 a pound. How much does each ingredient weight in the mixture?

Answers

Answer 1

he mixture refers to the one pound mix of peanuts and raisins that cost $7.50.

So you need to figure out how much of that 1 lb is raisins and how much is peanuts based on how much they each cost separately.

r=raisins, p=peanuts

(r x $3.25) + (p x $5.75) = $7.50

Answer 2

The weight of the ingredients in the mixture are  1.8 pound and 0.2 pound respectively.

What is a system of linear equations?

A system of linear equations is a group of  equations having same number of variables and degree.

For the n number of variables n number of equations are required.

On the basis of number of solutions a system of equations can be classified as consistent and inconsistent.

The given problem can be solved as follows,

Suppose the amount of raisins be x pound,

And, the amount of peanuts be y pound,

Now, the equation for the total amount is given as,

x + y = 2                                  (1)

And, for the cost as,

3.25x + 5.75y = 7.50             (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 3.25 and then subtract from (2) as follows,

3.25(x + y) - (3.25x + 5.75y) = 2 × 3.5 - 7.50

=> -2.5y = -0.5

=> y = 0.2

Then, x + 0.2 = 2

=> x = 1.8

Hence, the weight of raisins and peanuts in the mixture is given as 1.8 pound and 0.2 pound respectively.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct question

-16/5, 8, -20. What is the next term of the geometric sequence.

The nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as:

Tn = ar^n-1

From the sequence:

a is the first term = -16/5

n is the number of term = 4(since next term is 4th term

r is the common ratio = (8)÷(-16/5) = 8×-5/16

r = -5/2

Substitute the given values into the formula

T4 = -16/5(-5/2)^4-1

T4 = -16/5(-5/2)³

T4 = -16/5×-125/8

T4 = -16/8×-125/5

T4 = -2×-25

T4 = 50

Hence the next term is 50

Written as a simplified polynomial in standard form, what is the result when ( x + 2 ) 2 (x+2) 2 is subtracted from 7 x − 4 7x−4?

Answers

Answer:

-x²+3x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomials are :

f(x) = (x+2)²

p(x) = 7x−4

We need to find a simplified polynomial when f(x) is subtracted from p(x) i.e.

p(x) - f(x) = 7x−4 - (x+2)²

We know that, (a+b)² = a²+b²+2ab

So,

p(x) - f(x) = 7x−4 -(x²+2²+2(x)(2))

= 7x−4 -(x²+4+4x)

= 7x−4-x²-4-4x

= -x²+3x-8

Hence, the result will be -x²+3x-8.

To figure out this problem, let's set up an equation first to make it easier:

702.50 = 5.5x + 70

x = amount charged per hour

702.50 = 5.5x + 70

Here are the first four terms of a quadratic sequence.
The nth term of this sequence is an² + bn + c.
1, 11, 27 and 49
Find the values of a, b and c.

Answers

Answer:

a = 3, b = 1, c = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the n th term

a + b + c = 1 → (1)

4a + 2b + c = 11 → (2)

9a + 3b + c = 27 → (3)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate c

Subtract (2) from (3) term by term to eliminate c

3a + b = 10 → (4)

5a + b = 16 → (5)

Subtract (4) from (5) term by term to eliminate b

2a = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 3

Substitute a = 3 into (4) and evaluate for b

3(3) + b = 10

9 + b = 10 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

b = 1

Substitute a = 3, b = 1 into (1) and evaluate for c

3 + 1 + c = 1

4 + c = 1 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

c = - 3

Then a = 3, b = 1 and c = - 3

The measure of a, b and c is  3, 1 and - 3 respectively.

What is a quadratic sequence?

A quadratic sequence is a sequence whose nth term is given by the general formula -

A{n} = an² + bn + c.

Given are the 4 terms of the quadratic sequence as 1, 11, 27 and 49.

Now, we can the following equations as -

A{1} = a + b + c = 1

a + b + c = 1

c = 1 - a - b              ........ Eq[1]

A{2} = 4a + 2b + c = 11

4a + 2b + c = 11

c = 11 - 4a - 2b           ........ Eq[2]

A{3} = 9a + 3b + c = 27

9a + 3b + c = 27

c = 27 - 9a - 3b               ........ Eq[3]

A{4} = 16a + 4b + c = 49

16a + 4b + c = 49

c = 49 - 16a - 4b             ........ Eq[4]

Equate Eq[1] and Eq[2] -

1 - a - b  =  11 - 4a - 2b  

1 - 11 = - 4a - 2b + a + b

- 10 = - 3a - b

3a + b = 10                ........... Eq[5]

Equate Eq[3] and Eq[4] -

27 - 9a - 3b = 49 - 16a - 4b  

- 9a - 3b + 16a + 4b = 49 - 27

7a + b = 22          .......... Eq[6]

We can write -

7a + 10 - 3a = 22

4a + 10 = 22

4a = 12

a = 3

and

b = 10 - 3a

b = 10 - 9

b = 1

At last -

c = 1 - a - b

c = 1 - 3 - 1

c = - 3

Therefore, the measure of a, b and c is  3, 1 and - 3 respectively.

They made a difference in peoples lives and learned some important life lessons in the process. Organizations, including schools, are actively promoting service for all citizens as a way to be involved, help others, and improve themselves.Service is helping other people and being active in your community. For example, one group of teens planted a community garden with their friends. They grow a variety of vegetables. The garden requires regular care. The teens donate the produce to a local soup kitchen. Workers there use the produce to help feed people in the community. By tending the garden and donating their produce, the teens are actively helping make life a bit better for others in their community.Service is valuable in ways that cannot be measured in dollars. People volunteer or serve others without expecting money or gifts in return. Service is not about earning money. It is not just collecting money to give to a group. It is about action and contributing to the common good. The people who serve as well as those who receive help benefit in many ways that are more important than money or gifts. For example, a soup kitchen provides essential food to people who may otherwise go hungry. The soup kitchen is extremely valuable for those struggling to get enough to eat. Those serving learn about compassion and how helping others can improve life for all.Millions of Americans are making society better for themselves and for others.
