Suppose you work for a large coffee distributor that has a secret coffee blend it sells to local stores. You
mix the Tanzanian blend with the Queen City blend, but always in the same proportion. Yesterday, you
mixed 40 pounds of the Tanzanian blend with 8 pounds of the Queen City blend. Today, there is 20 pounds
of the Tanzanian coffee left in stock. How many pounds of the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to
get your secret blend?

Answers

Answer 1

Quantity of Tanzanian blend used in my secret coffee blend = 40 pounds

Quantity of Queen city blend used in my secret coffee blend = 8 pounds

The ratio of Tanzanian blend to Queen city blend in my coffee blend = 40 : 8

Quantity of Tanzanian blend with me = 20 pounds

Quantity of Queen city bend needed to make my secret coffee blend =

Let the quantity of Queen city blend I will need be x .

[tex] \frac{40}{8} = \frac{20}{x} [/tex]

[tex]8 \times 20 = 40 \times x[/tex]

[tex]160 = 40x[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{160}{40} [/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Therefore , I need to mix 4 pounds of queen city blend with my 20 pounds of Tanzanian blend to get my secret coffee blend .

Answer 2

4 pounds of  the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to get your secret blend.

What is Ratio?

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0.

Given that,

Yesterday If we mixed 40 pounds of the Tanzanian blend with 8 pounds of the Queen City blend.

In the same proportion, today there is 20 pounds of the Tanzanian coffee left in stock.

We need to calculate how many pounds of the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to get your secret blend.

Let x be the pounds of the Queen City coffee should you mix with it

Let us form a equation

40/8=20/x

Apply cross multiplication

40x=160

Divide both sides by 40

x=4

Hence 4 pounds of  the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to

get your secret blend.

Work out the price of the car before it was reduced.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the original.price

so x * 75/100= 14625

x=19500

so the price of car before it was reduced was 19500

The price of the car before it was reduced is £19500.

What is a percentage?

A ratio or value that may be stated as a fraction of 100 is called a percentage. And it is represented by the symbol '%'.

Given that the price of the car with 25% price reduced is  £14625.

Now to find the price of the car before it was reduced,

for that we will find the price of car to 100 - 25 = 75 percentage.

Let P be the price of the car before it was reduced.

P × 75 / 100 = 14625

P = 14625 × 100 / 75

P = £19500

Therefore, the price of the car before it was reduced is £19500.

(3) An estate was to be divided among five people. The first person received 1/8 of the estate. The next two people each received 1/5 of the estate. The fourth person received 1/10 of the estate. What fractional part of the estate did the last person receive?

Answers

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

An estate has to be divided among the 5 persons.

Given that the 1st person received 1/8 of the estate,

the 2nd person received 1/5 of the estate,

the 3rd person received 1/5 of the estate,

and the 4th person received 1/10 of the estate.

Let the 5th person received the x part of the estate.

The sum of all the fractional parts of one estate equals to 1, so

[tex]\frac 1 8+\frac 1 5+\frac 1 5+\frac 1 {10}+x=1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 5 8 +x =1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x =1-\frac 5 8 =\frac 3 8.[/tex]

Hence, the last person received 3/8  of the estate.

Answer: discrete

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph would be discrete, because you can only order a whole number of pizzas. This means you cannot have 0.4 of a pizza or 3/5 of a pizza. Therefore, p can only be whole numbers, so you cannot draw a line through the points, since prices for non-whole pizzas are not possible.

Three hours later, the fish was at a depth that is LaTeX: 3\frac{1}{4}3 1 4feet below where it was at 1: 00 p.M. What rational number represents the position of the fish with respect to the water's surface at 4:00 p.M.?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{23}{4}[/tex] feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The depth of the fish to the surface of water at 1:00 pm = 2 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] feet

                                                                             =   [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] feet

The depth of the fish to its initial position at 4:00 pm = 3 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] feet

                                                                              = [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex] feet

The position of the fish with respect to the water's surface at 4:00 pm = the depth of the fish to the surface of water at 1:00 pm + the depth of the fish to its initial position at 4:00 pm

                                        =  [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex]

                                        = [tex]\frac{10 + 13}{4}[/tex]

                                         = [tex]\frac{23}{4}[/tex]

The position of the fish with respect to the water's surface at 4:00 pm is [tex]\frac{23}{4}[/tex] feet.
