By eating 1 egg, 1 cupcake, and 1 slice of pizza, a child consumes 300 mg of cholesterol. If the child eats 3 cupcakes and 4 slices of pizza, he or she takes in 86 mg of cholesterol. By eating 2 eggs and 1 cupcake, a child consumes 566 mg of cholesterol. How much cholesterol is in each item?

Answers

Answer:

cholesterol in egg= 273 mg

cholesterol in cupcake = 18 mg

cholesterol in slice of pizza = 9 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

1 egg , 1 cupcake , 1 slice of pizza  = 300mg

3 cupcakes , 4 slices of pizza = 90mg

2 eggs , 1 cupcake = 564mg

Let egg be x , let cupcake be y and let pizza be y

x + y + z = 300 (equation 1)

0x + 3y + 4z = 90 (equation 2)

2x + y + 0z = 564 (equation 3)

Using equation 1 and equation 2

x + y + z = 300 (Multiply equation by 3)

0x + 3y + 4z = 90

3x + 3y +3z =900

0x +3y +4z = 90  (Subtracting the equations)

3x - z = 810  (equation 4)

Using equation 2 and equation 3

0x + 3y + 4z = 90

2x + y + 0z = 564 (Multiply equation by 3)

0x + 3y + 4z = 90

6x +3y + 0z = 1692 (Subtracting the equations)

-6x +4z =-1602  (equation 5)

Solving equation 4 and equation 5

3x - z = 810  therefore z =3x -810

Substituting z into equation 5

-6x +4(3x - 810) =-1602  

-6x + 12x - 3240 = -1602

6x = -1602+3240

6x = 1638

x = 273

Substituting x into z = 3x - 810

z = 3(273) - 810

z = 819-810

z = 9

Using equation 1 to find y

x + y + z = 300

273 + y + 9 = 300

282 + y = 300

y = 300-282

y = 18

If a+b=8, b+c=10 and c+a=12, what is the value of a+b+c?

The puzzle is solved by defining each variable in terms of another variable & a number & then making substitutions. Begin by taking each sum to define one of the variables in terms of the other. (Different combinations are available, but I’ll follow the a,b,c order.)

a+b=8 becomes a=8-b

b+c=10 becomes b=10-c

c+a=12 becomes c=12-a

Now subtract two of the equations that contain the same variable. I’ll pick two that contain an a: c+a =12 & a+b=8. Subtracting the latter from the former eliminates the “a”s, leaving c-b=4. Adding b to both sides to isolate c gives c=b+4. From above we can take b=10-c to substitute for b in c=b+4, giving us c=(10-c) + 4). Simplify the right side to c=14-c, add c to both sides, giving 2c=14, & then divide both sides by 2 to obtain c=7.

Replace the c in b=10-c with 7 to

If A = B and B = C, does A = C?

In mathematics = is assumed to be a transitive relationship. Transitivity means precisely what you stated: A = B and B = C implies A = C.

While it’s possible to use = to represent a non-transitive relationship this would be considered an abuse of notation. A ~ B or R(A, B) would be a better way to express the relation in this case.

Similar assumptions are made about operators like + and *. + is generally assumed to be commutative, whereas * can be used for noncommutative operations like matrix multiplication. E.g. A * B != B * A.

Equality in programming is another story entirely.

In many languages = is the assignment operator and == is the equality operator. Assignment is not transitive - it’s not even a relation.There are cases where the equality operator doesn’t define a transitive relation.

She paddles across the lake for one hour longer than she paddled up the river. find the speed of the boat as she paddles the lake if the river current is 2 km/h. Pls answer. You'll get 100 points.

Answers

Answer:

5 km/h or 6 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the boat be xSpeed against the current in the river is x - 2

Time in the river:

6/(x - 2)

Time in the lake:

15/x

The difference:

6/(x - 2) = 15/x - 1

Solve for x to find the speed of the boat

Multiply both sides by x(x - 2) to clear the fraction:

6x = 15(x - 2) - x(x - 2)6x = 15x - 30 - x² + 2xx² - 11x + 30 = 0(x - 5)(x - 6) =0x -5 = 0, x - 6 = 0x = 5 km/h, x = 6 km/h

A company produces two types of jackets; windbreakers and rainbreakers. The company has at most 61 hours of finishing time per week and 67 hours of packaging time per week. Each windbreaker jacket takes 59 minutes of finishing time and 21 minutes of packaging time per week, whereas each rainbreaker jacket takes 58 minutes of finishing time and 34 minutes of packaging time per week. The company's profit for each windbreaker and rainbreaker jacket is 28 and 41, respectively. Let x denote the number of windbreaker jackets they should produce and y denote the number of rainbreaker jackets they should produce. The company wants to maximize profit. Set up the Linear Programming Problem for this situation.

Answers

Answer:

Max p = 28x + 41y

Subject to

59x + 58y ≤ 3660

21x + 34y ≤ 4020

x  ≥  0, y ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

As given ,

                                       Windbreakers          Rain breakers              Total

Finishing time                         59 min                     58 min                   61 hr

Packaging time                        21 min                      34 min                   68 hr

Profit                                          28                                41

Let

The number of windbreaker jackets they should produce = x

The number of rain breaker jackets they should produce = y

As given,

The company wants to maximize profit.

⇒ Maximum Profit , p = 28x + 41 y

Now,

As 1 hour = 60 min

⇒61 hours = 61×60 = 3660 min

and 67 hours = 67×60 = 4020 min

∴ we get

The equations become

59x + 58y ≤ 3660

21x + 34y ≤ 4020

x  ≥  0, y ≥ 0

So, the Linear Programming Problem (LPP) for this problem is -

Max p = 28x + 41y

Subject to

59x + 58y ≤ 3660

21x + 34y ≤ 4020

x  ≥  0, y ≥ 0

The function f (x) = -1.330x + 5.149x +5.517 can be used to estimate the amount of country A funding for country B security forces, in billions of dollars, x years after January 2007. In what year was the amount of country A funding for country B security forces about $ 10.5 billion?

Answers

Answer:

2009

Step-by-step explanation:

The question can be interpreted as:

[tex]f(x) = -1.330x^2 + 5.149x + 5.517[/tex]

Required

Determine x when f(x) = 10.5

Substitute 10.5 for f(x) in [tex]f(x) = -1.330x^2 + 5.149x + 5.517[/tex]

[tex]10.5 = -1.330x^2 + 5.149x + 5.517[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]-1.330x^2 + 5.149x + 5.517-10.5=0[/tex]

[tex]-1.330x^2 + 5.149x -4.983=0[/tex]

Using quadratic formula

[tex]x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]a = -1.330[/tex]

[tex]b = 5.149[/tex]

[tex]c = -4.983[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-5.149 \± \sqrt{5.149^2 - 4*-1.330*-4.983}}{2*-1.330}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-5.149 \± \sqrt{0.002641}}{-2.660}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-5.149 \± 0.0514}{-2.660}[/tex]

Split:

[tex]x = \frac{-5.149 + 0.0514}{-2.660}\ or\ x = \frac{-5.149 - 0.0514}{-2.660}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{-5.0976}{-2.660}\ or\ x = \frac{-5.2004}{-2.660}[/tex]

[tex]x = 1.92\ or\ x = 1.96[/tex]

Both values of x approximates to 2.

So:

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

2 years after 2007 is 2009.

The ratio is the relationship of two numbers. ... A rate is a little bit different than the ratio, it is a special ratio. It is a comparison of measurements that have different units, like cents and grams. A unit rate is a rate with a denominator of 1.

The difference between ratio and unit rate is that both of them are measures of two units and are written in the form of a numerator and a denominator but the unit rate denominator must be one.

What is a ratio?

It shows how many times one value is contained in another value.

The ratio shows how many times one value is contained in another value.

Ratio and unit rate

Ratio and unit rate both are written in the form of a numerator and a denominator.

The ratio is a measure of two units contained in a whole amount.

Example: 3 apples and 3 mangoes are contained in a bag

The ratio of apple and mango is 3:3 = 1:1

The unit rate is also a measure between two units but the denominator should always be one.

Example: A man can run 10 miles in 10 hours

In one hour 1 mile.

The unit ratio is 10miles per hour.

Thus,

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimum and Maximum points occur when the gradient of the function is equal to 0. Graphically this looks like a bend such that the function dips from decreasing to increasing (the gradient goes form being negative to positive) and vice versa.

A minimum point occurs where all the nearby values are higher than that of the point in question.

A maximum point occurs where all the nearby points are lower than the point in question.

By looking at the graph, there is a maximum point around (4.5, 1.5) which is consistent with B but not A (since A talks about a minimum point)

What is the mean absolute deviation for 299, 281, 285, 269, 280, 269, 286, 287?

Answers

Answer:

the answer is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean absolute deviation of the scores 299, 281, 285, 269, 280, 269, 286, 287 is, 7.5

What is Division method?

Division method is used to distributing a group of things into equal parts. Division is just opposite of multiplications.

For example, dividing 20 by 2 means splitting 20 into 2 equal groups of 10.

Now, We know that;

The mean absolute deviation (MAD) is a measure of the dispersion of a set of data. It is calculated as the average absolute difference between each data point and the mean of the set.

Hence, To find the MAD for the given scores, first find the mean of the scores:

= (299 + 281 + 285 + 269 + 280 + 269 + 286 + 287) / 8

= 280.5

Then, find the absolute difference between each score and the mean, and take the average of these differences:

= (|299 - 280.5| + |281 - 280.5| + |285 - 280.5| + |269 - 280.5| + |280 - 280.5| + |269 - 280.5| + |286 - 280.5| + |287 - 280.5|) / 8

= (18.5 + 0.5 + 4.5 + 11.5 + 0.5 + 11.5 + 5.5 + 6.5) / 8

= 7.5

So, the mean absolute deviation of the scores is 7.5.
