Answer the questions below. Do not do any rounding.
(a) How many grams of copper are in the resulting mixture?
(b) What percentage of the resulting mixture is copper?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  (a)  68 grams

  (b)  42.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

You mix 100 g of 35% copper with 60 g of 55% copper to form an alloy. You want to know the number of grams and the percentage of copper in the mixture.

Copper

The total amount of copper is ...

  0.35·(100 g) +0.55·(60 g) = 35 g + 33 g = 68 g

There are 68 grams of copper in the resulting mixture.

Percentage

The percentage of copper in the mixture is ...

  (68 g)/(100 g + 60 g) × 100% = 68/160 × 100% = 42.5%

The resulting mixture is 42.5% copper.

Michelle sells new and used kayaks. She makes a 10.5% commission on every kayak she sells and she also gets paid $495.50 per week.
a) Develop an equation for the way Michelle is paid.
b) Last month, the total value of the kayaks she sold was $19 425. Use the equation you’ve developed to find out how much Michelle was paid for that month.

Answers

Part a

The equation for the way Michelle is paid is

Total weekly payment y = 495.50 + 0.105x

Part b

The total payment in a  month = $4021.625

She makes a 10.5% commission on every kayak she sells

Consider the total value of kayaks she sold = x

The rate of commission = 10.5%

The amount of commission = x × (10.5/100)

= 0.105x

The weekly fixed payment = $495.50

Total weekly payment y = 495.50 + 0.105x

Part b

The total value of the kayaks she sold = $19425

Total number of weeks in a month = 4

Then the total payment in a month = (4 × 495.50) + (0.105×19425)

= 1982 + 2039.625

= $4021.625

Hence,

part a

The equation for the way Michelle is paid is

Total weekly payment y = 495.50 + 0.105x

Answers

The price of each bag of apples is $3.5 and price of  each bag of potatoes is $2.

Given:

a person can buy two bags of apples and two bags of potatoes for $11 at a farmers market the same person by two bags of apples and three bags of potatoes for $13.

Let x be the apples and y be the potatoes.

2x + 2y = 11

2x + 3y = 13

The height of a cone is two times its base diameter. What is the volume of the cone in terms of its base radius r

Answers

                  The volume of cone will be [tex]\frac{88r^{3} }{21}[/tex]

Cone:

        A cone is a three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat base.

Given,

        The height of a cone is two times its base diameter.

         we have to find the volume of cone in terms of base radius.

let us assume the base radius of cone is equal to r units

                    so diameter(d) of cone will be, d= 2r units

so,

     height(h) of cone will be equal to, h = 2d units

                                                           h = 2x2r units

                                                           h = 4r  units

We know,

              Volume of the cone(V) = [tex]\pi r^{2} h/3[/tex]

                Where,

                             r = radius of base

                            h = height of cone

                            π = 22/7

Thus by using formula,

                                   Volume of cone(V) = [tex]\pi r^{2} h/3[/tex]

                                                                 = 22/7 * [tex]r^{2}[/tex] * 4r/3

                                                                 = 88[tex]r^{3}[/tex]/21

                                                                 = [tex]\frac{88r^{3} }{21}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

38.88in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of shaded region = Area of square - Area of semi circle

First lets find the area of the square and semi circle

Area of square = s²

Where s = side length

Here we have a given side length of 8in

So s = 8

This means area = 8² = 64in²

Area of semicircle = (πr²)/2

Where r = radius

Here, the side length of the square and the diameter of the semicircle is shared meaning they are congruent. This means the diameter of the semicircle = 8in

To convert from diameter to radius we simply divide by 2

So radius = 8 / 2 = 4

Now we have Area = (πr²)/2

==> plug in r = 4 and π = 3.14

Area = (3.14(4)²))/2

==> simplify exponent

Area = (3.14(16))/2

==> multiply 3.14 and 16

Area = 50.24/2

==> simplify division

Area = 25.12in²

Area of shaded region

We now subtract the two areas

Area of shaded region = Area of square - Area of semi circle

Area of square = 64in² and Area of semicircle = 25.12in²

Area of shaded region = 64in² - 25.12in² = 38.88in²

Cost for each pound of chocolate chips: $
Cost for each pound of walnuts: $

Answers

Cost for each pound of chocolate chips is equal to $3.5.

Cost for each pound of walnuts is equal to $1.75

How to determine the cost for each pound of chocolate chips and each pound of walnuts?

In order to solve this word problem, we would assign variables to the cost for each pound of chocolate chips and each pound of walnuts respectively, and then translate the word problem into algebraic equation as follows:

Let the variable c represent the amount of cost for each pound of chocolate chips.Let the variable w represent the cost for each pound of walnuts.

For 3 pounds of chocolate chips and 2 pounds of walnuts, we have:

3c + 2w = 14              .....equation 1.

For 5 pounds of chocolate chips and 6 pounds of walnuts, we have:

5c + 6w = 28      .....equation 2.

Solving the system of equations by using the elimination method, we have:

3 × (3c + 2w = 14) = 9c + 6w = 42

                                5c + 6w = 28_

4c = 14

c = 14/4

c = $3.5

For the cost for each pound of walnuts, we have:

3c + 2w = 14

3(3.5) + 2w = 14

10.5 + 2w = 14

2w = 14 - 10.5

2w = 3.5

w = 3.5/2

w = $1.75.

For the parabola f(x) = -3x² - 30x - 74, the domain is all real numbers (-∞, ∞), and the range is also all real numbers (-∞, ∞).

To determine the domain and range of the given parabola f(x) = -3x² - 30x - 74, we need to understand the behavior of parabolas.

The domain of a function represents all the possible x-values for which the function is defined. In this case, there are no restrictions on the x-values for the given quadratic function. Therefore, the domain is all real numbers, expressed as (-∞, ∞).

The range of a function represents all the possible y-values that the function can produce. For a parabola, if the coefficient of the squared term (in this case, -3) is negative, the parabola opens downward. Since the coefficient is negative, the parabola will have a maximum value. In this example, there is no minimum or maximum specified; thus, the range will also be all real numbers.

Answers

The equation of a circle with a center at (-4, 0) that passes through the point (-2, 1) is (x + 4)² + y² = 5. Option C is correct.

The standard equation of a circle is given by:

(x – h)² + (y – k)² = r²

Where (h, k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius.

We are given:

The circle has a center at (–4, 0) and passes through the point (–2, 1).

Substitute (h, k) with (–4, 0) in the above equation, we will get;

(x – (-4))² + (y – 0)² = r²

(x + 4)² + y² =  r²

Substitute (x, y) with (–2, 1) in the above equation to get the value of r:

(-2 + 4)² + 1² =  r²

(2)² + 1² =  r²

r² = 5

Put the value r² = 5 in (x + 4)² + y² =  r², we will get;

(x + 4)² + y² =  5

So, the equation of the circle is (x + 4)² + y² =  5.

Thus, the equation of a circle with a center at (-4, 0) that passes through the point (-2, 1) is (x + 4)² + y² = 5. Option C is correct.

How to find the relation between x and y?

We know that y is directly proportional to x³, then we can write the equation:

y = k*x³

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

In this case, we know that when x = 10, the value of y is 250, then we can replace these values in the above equation to find the value of x:

250 = k*10³

250 = k*1,000

and Ashley travels 8 mph how long until they meet?
hours

Answers

The time taken by Ashley and Laura to meet each other is 3 hrs

Relationship Between Time, Speed & Distance:

The speed of an object tells us how slow or fast an object moves. The formula for speed is given below

           Speed = Distance/Time  

The speed of an object is directly proportional to Distance and Inversely proportional to Time. Hence,

           Distance = Speed X Time  

Here we have,

Ashley and Laura are 60 miles apart, traveling toward each other

This means the distance between Ashley and Laura is 60 miles

Speed of Laura = 12 mph

Speed of Ashley = 8 mph

Let us assume that Both Ashley and Laura meet after t hours

Then

The distance traveled by Laura in t hours = 12 mph × t hrs = 12t m

The distance traveled by Ashley in t hours = 8 mph × t hrs = 8t m

As we know the distance between Laura and Ashley is 60 miles

=>  12t m + 8t m = 60 miles

=>  20t miles = 60 miles

=> t = 60/20

=> t = 3hrs
