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.

A Party Mix Is Made By Adding Nuts That Sell For $2.50 Per Kg To A Cereal Mixture That Sells For $1 Per

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

44kg of cereal, 16kg of nuts

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. We work out how much the party mix would cost if all of it was nuts.

$2.50 x 60kg = $150

Step 2. We work out how much we want the party mix to cost if it had the correct ratio of nuts and cereal.

$1.40 x 60kg = $84

Step 3. We work out the difference between the two above numbers.

$150 - $84 =$66

Step 4. We work out the difference between the nut mix and the cereal mix.

$2.50 - $1 = $1.50

Step 5. We divide the answer to step 3 ($66) by the difference between the nut mix and cereal mix.

$66 ÷ $1.50 = 44

Step 6. The answer to step 5 is the mass of the cereal mix. We then minus 44kg from the total mix mass of 60kg to get the mass of the nut mix.

60kg - 44kg = 16kg

Step 7. We double check.

44kg of cereal = $44          16kg of nuts = $40           $44 + $40 = $84    

$84 ÷ 60kg = $1.4 per kg

Hope this helped!

A taxi driver charges a flat rate of $3.50 plus an additional $1.65 per mile. If Mohammad wants to spend, at most, $60, how far can he travel in the taxi cab?
Round your answer to the nearest mile.
O A. 34 miles
OB. 17 miles
C. 35 miles
D. 16 miles

Answers

Answer:

A. 34 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to subtract $3.50 from $60. Now you have $56.50. Now you want to divide that by $1.65, to see how many miles you can achieve with your price limit. So, now you have a grand total of 34.24. You round that, and you finally have your answer.

The answer to this problem is A. 34 miles

The number of miles that he can travel in the taxi cab will be 17 miles. Then the correct option is B.

What is a linear equation?

A connection between a number of variables results in a linear model when a graph is displayed. The variable will have a degree of one.

The linear equation is given as,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

A cab driver charges a level pace of $3.50 in addition to an extra $1.65 per mile.

Let 'y' be the total amount and 'x' be the number of miles. Then we have

y = 3.50x + 1.65

If Mohammad wants to spend, at most $60. Then the number of miles is given as,

60 = 3.50x + 1.65

3.50x = 58.35

x = 16.67

x ≈ 17 miles

The number of miles that he can travel in the taxi cab will be 17 miles. Then the correct option is B.

Since all the triangles are the exact same, then they have the same height and same length.

in a survey of 420 people, 85% said they drink coffee. of these, 1/3 said they drink their coffee black. how many of the people surveyed drink it black?​

Answers

Answer:

A.) 119

420 * 0.85 is 357 and 357 * 1/3 is 119

Hope this helps ^^

Answer:

119

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people who had taken the survey is 420 wich is equivalent to 100%.

The percentage of people who drink coffee is 85%.

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

Let x be the number of people drinking coffee

● 420 => 100%

● x => 85%

These values are proportional so we can cross-multiply them

● x*100 = 420*85

● x = (420*85)÷100

● x = 357

The number of people who drink coffee is 357.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let y be the number of people who drink black coffee.

y is 1/3 of 357 since people who drink black coffee represent the third of the total number of people drinking coffee in general.

● To get y multiply 1/3 by the total number of people drinking coffee (357)

●y = (1/3)*357

● y = 119

119 is the number of people who drink black coffee

What is the degree measure of an interior angle of a regular pentagon?

Answers

Answer:

it is 540 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

108°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of interior angle of any polygon = (n - 2 )*180

Here, n = number of sides

Sum of interior angle of regular pentagon = ( 5 - 2)*180 = 3*180 = 540°

In regular pentagon all the angles are congruent.

Interior angle of regular pentagon = 540/5

Triangles E F G and J H G are connected at point G. Sides F G and and G H are congruent. Sides E F and H J are parallel.

HL
SAS
SSS
ASA
AAS

Answers

Answer:

ASA  and AAS

Step-by-step explanation:

We do not know if these are right triangles; therefore we cannot use HL to prove congruence.

We do not have 2 or 3 sides marked congruent; therefore we cannot use SSS or SAS to prove congruence.

We are given that EF is parallel to HJ.  This makes EJ a transversal.  This also means that ∠HJG and ∠GEF are alternate interior angles and are therefore congruent.  We also know that ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent.  This gives us two angles and a non-included side, which is the AAS congruence theorem.

Since EF and HJ are parallel and EJ is a transversal, ∠JHG and ∠EFG are alternate interior angles and are congruent.  Again we have that ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent; this gives us two angles and an included side, which is the ASA congruence theorem.

The congruence theorems that can be used to prove ΔEFG ≅ ΔJHG are; ASA and AAS

It is impossible to know if these are right triangles from the information given;

On this note, only one side of each triangle is marked congruent;

Hence, we are unable use SSS or SAS to affirm congruence.

Additionally, since EF is parallel to HJ. Therefore, line EJ is a transversal. This also means that ∠HJG and ∠GEF are alternate (z-angles) interior angles and are therefore congruent.

Similarly, ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent. We have therefore established the AAS congruence theorem.

Since EF and HJ are parallel and EJ is a transversal, ∠JHG and ∠EFG are alternate (z-angles) interior angles and are congruent.

Similarly, ∠EGF and ∠HGJ are vertical angles and are congruent; This gives us two angles and an included side, which is the ASA congruence theorem.

A plane traveled 5525 miles with the wind in 8.5 hours and 4505 miles against the wind in the same amount of time. Find the speed of the plane in still air and the speed of the wind. The speed of the plane in still air is _____ (Hours,Miles,Mph) Simplify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the plane in still air is 590Mph

The speed of the wind is 60Mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

s= the speed of the plane in still air

w= the speed of the wind

Flying with the wind:

5525=(s+w)*8.5

5525=8.5s + 8.5w (1)

Flying against the wind:

4505=(s-w)*8.5

4505=8.5s - 8.5w (2)

Add (1) and (2) to eliminate w

5525=8.5s + 8.5w

4505=8.5s - 8.5w

10,030=17s

Divide both sides by 17

10,030/17=17s/17

590=s

s=590Mph

Substitute the value of s into (1)

5525=8.5s + 8.5w

5525=8.5(590) + 8.5w

5525=5,015 + 8.5w

5525-5015=8.5w

510=8.5w

Divide both sides by 8.5

60=w

w=60Mph

The speed of the plane in still air is 590Mph

The speed of the wind is 60Mph

In the figure below, B is the center of the circle. NL= 28, OS = 4x-2, RB = 22 and SB = 22. Find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:  x = 9

Explanation:

RB and SB are 22 units. Since they are both equal, this means the chords NL and OQ are the same length. This is true whenever the chords are the same distance away from the center.

NL = 28, so OQ = 28 as well.

Furthermore, the radius BP cuts chord OQ in half (because BP is perpendicular to OS), which means OS = 28/2 = 14. We are also told that OS = 4x-22

Therefore,

4x-22 = 14

4x = 14+22

4x = 36

x = 36/4

Which represents the inverse of the function f(x) = 4x?
h(x) = x + 4
h(x) = x -4
h(x) = 3
h(x) =
77 X​

Answers

Answer: D)  h(x) = (1/4)x

This is the same as h(x) = x/4

In decimal form, it would be h(x) = 0.25x

=============================================

Explanation:

Inverses undo the original function. The original function tells us to take any input (x) and multiply by 4 to get the output y = f(x) = 4x

To get the inverse, we reverse the operation applied here. The opposite of multiplication is division. So we'll divide by 4 instead of multiply by 4. This is why the answer is x/4 or (1/4)x

-----------

Another approach is to do the following: Replace f(x) with y. Swap x and y. Solve for y

f(x) = 4x

y = 4x

x = 4y

4y = x

y = x/4

h(x) = x/4

We end up with the same result as before.

-----------

Extra info:

For any real number x, the following two equations are true

h( f(x) ) = x

f( h(x) ) = x
