Copper costs £5 per kilogram.
Zinc costs £3.20 per kilogram.
Copper and zinc are mixed in the ratio 4:1 to make brass.
Work out the cost of 7 kilograms of brass

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4x(5)+1×(3.20)= 20+3.20=23.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The cost of 7kg of brass is £32.48.

What is ratio?

A ratio is a comparison of two or more numbers that indicates their sizes in relation to each other.

According  to the given question.

Cost of one kg of copper = £5

Cost of one kg of zinc = £3.20

Also, copper and zinc are mixed in the ratio 4:1.

Let the quantity of copper be 4x and the quantity of  zinc 1x.

Weight of brass = 7kg

⇒ 4x + 1x = 7

⇒ 5x = 7

⇒ x = [tex]\frac{7}{5}[/tex]

⇒ x = 1.4

Weight of copper, 4x = (1.4)(4) = 5.6kg

Weight of zinc, 1x = (1) ×(1.4)  = 1.4kg

Therefore,

The cost of 7kg of brass

= (5.6)×(£5) + (1.4)(£3.20)

= 28 + 4.48

= £ 32.48

Therefore, the cost of 7kg of brass is £32.48

Arithmetic mean of nine observations is calculated as 38. But in doing so, mistakenlythe observation 27 is taken instead of 72. Find the actual mean of the data.​

Answers

Answer:

Actual Mean = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Mean = 38

No of observations = 9

we know,

Mean = Sum / N

38 = Sum/ 9

Sum = 38 x 9 = 342

Since the observation 27 was mistakenly taken instead of 72, we subtract 27 from the sum and add 72.

New sum = 342 - 27 = 315 again, 315 + 72 = 387

The no. of observations stays the same.

Actual mean = New Sum / N

= 387/9

=43

Step-by-step explanation:

arithmetic mean =38

n=9

mean=sum/n

sum=mean×n=38×9=342

mistakenly observation 27 is taken instead of 72

new sum becomes =342+72-27=387

now

new mean =new sum/n=387/9=43

the actual mean of the data is 43.

Answer:

9.32 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

60 miles x 5280 feet per mile = 316,800 feet per hour

316,800 feet per hour/60 minutes per hour = 5280 feet per minute

5280 feet per minute/60 seconds per minute = 88 feet per second

An arrow is shot up in the air from a height of 3 feet. The height of the arrow, in feet,can be modeled with the function h= -2t^2+12t+3where his the height in feet and is the time in seconds.Enter the average rate of change, in feet per second, from 1 second to 4 seconds

Answers

Answer:

The average rate of change is two feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of an arrow shot up into the air from a height of three feet is given by the function:

[tex]h(t)=-2t^2+12t+3[/tex]

And we want to find its average rate of change from one second the four seconds.

The average rate of change is synonymous with the slope. Therefore, we can evaluate the height of the arrow after the first and fourth seconds, and find the slope between them.

After the first second, the height of the arrow is:

[tex]h(1)=-2(1)^2+12(1)+3=13[/tex]

And after the fourth second, the height of the arrow is:

[tex]h(4)=-2(4)^2+12(4)+3=19[/tex]

This yields two points: (1, 13) and (4, 19).

The slope between them is:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{19-13}{4-1}=\frac{6}{3}=2[/tex]

Therefore, the average rate of change from one second to four seconds is two feet per second.

ANSWER: 54.3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Label each side of the Triangle

Using the SOH CAH TOA method we can label zy as H (the longest line is always H). We can label xz as O (it is opposite the angle). We can label xy as A (it's the remaining side).

2. Cross out the 'useless' side

Now, we need to cross out the label which doesn't have an appointed piece of information to it. Meaning that A will remain as it labels 7cm. H will also remain as it labels the angle. O does not label anything and so we can cross it out.

3. Decide which method is correct

We are using the SOH CAH TOA method, this means we can either use SOH, CAH, or TOA to solve the problem. We know which method to use by seeing which of them does not contain the letter we crossed out. CAH does not contain O so it is the correct method.

4. Know the formula

Now we will use the formula of our found method. CAH begins with C and so does Cos. Therefore, Cos is our formula.

Cos( ) = A/H

5. Substitute in your numbers

Then, we will put in our numbers into the formula. The first slot we must fill in is within the brackets. Usually the angle goes inside of the brackets during trigonometry but we obviously do not know it. This means we will use 'x' inside of the brackets. Our formula now looks like this:

Cos(x)

Substitute in A and H. A will be the information appointed to the side we labelled A. H will be the information appointed to the side we labelled H.

Our formula will look like this:

Cos(x) = 7/12

6. Reverse it and calculate

Now we need to input an equation into our calculator. I don't know why but we will need to reverse our previous formula and type it into the calculator as:

cos-^1(7/12)

The result should say 54.31466529.

7. Round

Now we will round it by 1 decimal place. To do this we need to look at the number next to 3, it is not 5 or above 5. This means we will not round up,

 our answer is 54.3 degrees.

For a certain value of k, the system

x + y + 3z = 10,
-4x + 3y + 5z = 7,
kx + z = 3
has no solutions. What is this value of k?

Answers

Answer:

k = 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system:

x + y + 3z = 10, -4x + 3y + 5z = 7, kx + z = 3

Substitute z in the first two equations with z = 3 - kx:

x + y + 3(3 - kx) = 10 ⇒ (1 - 3k)x + y = 1 ⇒ y = (3k - 1)x + 1-4x + 3y +5(3 - kx) = 7 ⇒ -(4 + 5k)x + 3y = -8 ⇒ y = 1/3(5k + 4) - 8

In order the two equations above not to have a solution, the lines should be parallel. Parallel lines have equal slopes.

Solve the following equation for k:

3k - 1 = 1/3(5k + 4)9k - 3 = 5k + 44k = 7k = 7/4
