15/3x = 9/(2x-1)

Cross multiply

15(2x-1) = 9(3x)

Expand the brackets

30x -15 = 27x

Collecting like terms

30x-27x = 15

3x = 15

Divide through by 3

x= 15/3

x= 5

5) A recipe for cookies calls for 2 cups of milk for 3 cups of Flour. You decide that you want to make more cookies than the recipe calls for. You have enough to use 9 cups of flour. How many cups of milk is needed if you use 9 cups of flour?

Answers

Answer: If you want to make more cookies then what is called for in this situation then you would need 6 cups of milk.

Step-by-step explanation: You have 2 cups of milk and 3 cups of flour of course. In order to make a complete batch you need 2 cups of milk and 3 cups of flour. In order to make a second batch you need the same things as you did for the first batch. Therefore two batches of cookies requires 4 cups of milk and 6 cups of flour. In this situation you want to make 3 batches of cookies. The required items are 6 cups of milk and 9 cups of flour.

6 cups of milk because that’s the only logical answer

The end points of AB are A(2,3) and B(8,1). The perpendicular bisector of AB is CD and point C lies on AB. The length of CD is √10 units. The coordinates of point C are?

Answers

The answer is A took that test

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The coordinates of C are (5 , 2)

The slope of CD is 3

The coordinates of D are (6 , 5) and (4 , -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Now lets study the problem

- The ends points of line AB are A = 2 , 3) and B = (8 , 1)

- CD is the perpendicular bisector of AB, and C lies on AB

- That means:

# C is the mid-point of AB

# The slope of AB × the slope of CD = -1 (one of them is a multiplicative

 inverse and additive inverse of the other)

-Ex: the slope of one is a/b, then the slope of the other is -b/a

* The mid-point between two points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

 [(x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2]

∵ C is the mid-point of AB

∴ C = [(2 + 8)/2 , (3 + 1)/2] = [10/2 , 4/2] = (5 , 2)

* The coordinates of C are (5 , 2)

- The slope of a line passing through points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

the slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

∴ The slope of AB = (1 - 3)/(8 -2) = -2/6 = -1/3

∵ CD ⊥ AB

∴ The slope of CD × the slope of AB = -1

∴ The slope of CD = 3

* The slope of CD is 3

- The length of a line passing through points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

the length = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

∵ The length of CD = √10

∵ Point D is (x , y)

∴ (x - 5)² + (y - 2)² = (√10)²

∴ (x - 5)² + (y - 2)² = 10 ⇒ (1)

∵ The slope of CD is (y - 2)/(x - 5) = 3 ⇒ by using cross multiply

∴ (y - 2) = 3(x - 5) ⇒ (2)

- Substitute (2) in (1)

∴ (x - 5)² + [3(x - 5)]² = 10 ⇒ simplify

* [3(x - 5)]² = (3)²(x - 5)² = 9(x - 5)²

∴ (x - 5)² + 9(x - 5)² = 10 ⇒ add the like terms

∴ 10(x - 5)² = 10 ⇒ ÷ 10 both sides

∴ (x - 5)² = 1 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ x - 5 = ± 1

∴ x - 5 = 1 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ x = 6

* OR

∴ x - 5 = -1 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ x = 4

- Substitute the values of x in (2)

∴ y - 2 = 3(6 - 5)

∴ y - 2 = 3 ⇒ add 2

∴ y = 5

* OR

∴ y - 2 = 3(4 - 5)

∴ y - 2 = -3 ⇒ add 2

∴ y = -1

* The coordinates of D are (6 , 5) and (4 , -1)

So you have to use the Pythagorean Theorum which is [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex] and in this case a is 70 and b is 40.

So if we plug those numbers in we have to square a and b and add them which is 6,500 and to find c we have to find the square root of 6500 which is about 80 so lines PR and QR are different

Determine the value of k that would make these two functions inverses.

Answers

Answer: K = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If you find the inverse of the inverse function, it will return back to initial function.

The inverse of r^-1 (x) will give r(x).

To find the inverse of r^-1(x), let it be equal to y. Interchange y and x for each other and make y the subject of formula. That is,

Y = 2x^2 - 14

Interchange y for x

X = 2y^2 - 14

2y^2 = x + 14

Y^2 = x/2 + 14/2

Square both side

Y = sqrt ( x/2 + 7 )

It is only when K = 6, that will can get the value above.

Bud's cheeseburger and fries contained 1310 milligrams and 350 milligrams of sodium, respectively. Together they contained 66.4% of the recommended daily intake of sodium for
diet. What is the daily recommended intake of sodium for a 2,000 calorie diet? ​

Answers

Answer:

The recommended daily intake of sodium for a 2000 calorie diet is 2500 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the daily intake of sodium we first need to calculate the mass of sodium present in both snacks, this is given by their sum.

[tex]\text{total sodium} = 1310 + 350 = 1660 \text{ mg}[/tex]

We can now apply a rule of three for which the total sodium from the snacks is related to 66.4% in the same proportion as "x" mg, which is the value we want to know, is related to 100%. So we have:

[tex]\frac{1660}{x} \frac{mg}{mg} = \frac{66.4\%}{100\%}[/tex]

[tex]66.4*x = 1660*100\\x = \frac{166000}{66.4} = 2500 \text{ mg}[/tex]

The recommended daily intake of sodium for a 2000 calorie diet is 2500 mg.

Answer:

2,500 mg

1,310 + 350 = 1,660

1,660 is 66.4% of 2,500

James earns $1000 weekly base pay as a sales-person and gets a 10% commission on everything he sells. It is said that he sold $20,000 worth of merchandise last month, how much did he earn for the month? Provide an explanation :)) A. $4,000 B. $22,000 C. $6,000 D. $2,000

Answers

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that James earns $1000 weekly base pay as a sales-person.

We know that, we have 4 weeks in a month. So, monthly salary of james is

Monthly income [tex]=\$1000\times 4=\$4,000[/tex]

It is said that he sold $20,000 worth of merchandise last month and he gets a 10% commission on everything he sells.

Commission [tex]=\$20,000\times \dfrac{10}{100}=\$2,000[/tex]

Total amount = Monthly income + Commission

          [tex]=\$4,000+\$2,000[/tex]  

          [tex]=\$6,000[/tex]  

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answers

Answer: The answer is the second one/b.

Answer:

D. 22/1=x/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Well what you multiply by the top you must do the bottom and opposite way also goes, sometimes so to get three as shown in (x/3) you must use the 1 from (22/1) times something to equal 3. In this it would be 1*3=3 so I multiplied three to the bottom and what I do the the bottom I haft to do to the top so 22*3=x and x is equal to 66 witch makes (D. 22/1=x/3) the correct option. If you want or need to check a good way to is to use a calculator to multiply 22*3 just as a small check up.
