Bronze which costs $7.05/kg is made by
combining copper which costs $6.20/kg with
tin which costs $8.70/kg. Find the number of
kg of copper and tin required to make 5 kg of
bronze.
Find the number of kg of copper and tin required to make 15.3 kg of bronze. (NO LINKS)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 3.3 kg of Cu, 1.7kg of Sn

I abbreviate copper as Cu and tin as Sn.

Step-by-step explanation:

For 5 kg of $7.05$/kg bronze:  Let x be the mass of Cu.  The mass of Sn would be 5-x.

Multiply these two masses by their respective element cost.

Cu = ($6.20/kg)x  [The total value of copper in 5 kg of bronze]

Sn = ($8.70/kg)(5-x)  [The total value of tin in 5 kg of bronze]

We know that:

($6.20/kg)x + ($8.70/kg)(5-x) = $7.05

Solve for x.  I get

x= 3.3 kg of Cu

5-x = 1.7kg of Sn

==

Check the result for 5 kg of bronze:

(3.3 kg of Cu)*($6.20/kg) = $20.46 cost of Cu

(1.7kg of Sn)*($8.70/kg) =     $14.79  cost of Sn

Thus, the total cost for 5kg of bronze is $35.25.  That makes it $7.05/kg.

If 15x + 20=a(bx + c), where a, b and c are integers, and a > 1,what is
the value of a? 3, 4, 5, 10, or 15

Answers

Since a > 1, b cannot be greater than 15, hence the value of a can be 3, 4, 5, and 10

Given the expression 15x + 20=a(bx + c),

To get the value of a, we will need to factor out the given expression as shown:

15x + 20=a(bx + c)

15x + 20=abx + ac

Comparing both sides

15x = abx

15 = ab

a = 15/b

Since a > 1, b cannot be greater than 15

Hence the value of a can be 3, 4, 5, and 10

According to financial reports, the average household credit card debt in 2010 was $7768 and in 2012 was $7117. What is the rate of change of the credit card debt per year? If this trend were to continue, how much would you expect the average household credit card debt to be in 2016?

Answers

Answer: 1953

Step-by-step explanation: You need to subtract 7768 and 7117 to find the average change in 2 years; you get 651, divide this by 2 to find the amount of change in 1 year and you'll get 325.5, now if we take 325.5 times 6 (the amount of years until 2016) you will find 1953 as the answer.

What is the domain and range of the function?
Domain:

Answers

Answer:

Domain: {x∈R}

Range: {f(x)∈R | f(x) ≥ 0}

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a function is, in simple terms, all the possible x values of a function (input values), and as the graph shows that all x values are possible (x, 0 and -x) meaning x can be any rational number, represented by the R and the subset symbol (∈).

The range is all the possible f(x) values (outputs/y values) and if you look at the graph you see that it isn't possible for the f(x)/output/y values to be negative so we write:

{f{x}∈R (f(x)/output/y value is rational) | (and) f(x) ≥ 0 (f(x)/output/y value is bigger or equal to 0, not negative)}

the distance between points S and T is 61 units. point S is located at (-6,8) and point T is at (x,-3). what could be the value of x?

Answers

The distance between two points is the number of units between them

The possible value of x is -66

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{S = (-6,8)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{T = (x,-3)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ST = 61}[/tex]

Distance ST is calculated using:

[tex]\mathbf{d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{d = \sqrt{(-6 - x)^2 + (8 - -3)^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{d = \sqrt{(-6 - x)^2 + (8 +3)^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{d = \sqrt{(-6 - x)^2 + 11^2}}[/tex]

Substitute 61 for d

[tex]\mathbf{ \sqrt{(-6 - x)^2 + 11^2} = 61}[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]\mathbf{ (-6 - x)^2 + 11^2 = 61^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ (-6 - x)^2 + 121 = 3721}[/tex]

Subtract 121 from both sides

[tex]\mathbf{ (-6 - x)^2 = 3721 - 121}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ (-6 - x)^2 = 3600}[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]\mathbf{ -6 - x = 60}[/tex]

Add 6 to both sides

[tex]\mathbf{ - x = 60 + 6}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ - x = 66}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -1

[tex]\mathbf{ x = -66}[/tex]

Hence, the possible value of x is -66

£800 is divided between Natasha, Richard & Stephen so that Natasha gets twice as much as Richard, and Richard gets three times as much as Stephen. How much does Richard get?

Answers

Answer:  Natasha = 480; Richard = 240, Stephen = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N, R, and S stand for the amounts Natasha, Richard and Stephen receive.  The problem tells us that:

N = 2R, and

R = 3S

We know that N+R+S = 800

Since N=2R and R=3S, N = 6S

N+R+S = 800

6S+3S+S=800

10S=800

S=80

R=3S or 240

N=2R or 480

Conclusion:

N gets 480

R gets 240,

and S gets 80

That adds to 800.

. . .  AND the last conclusion is that I need to meet Natasha.  Please send Stephen home.

explain how the inverse and the contopositivve of a conditional are alike and how they are different

Answers

Answer:

See explanation!

Step-by-step explanation:

The contrapositive of a conditional is similar to, yet different from, the inverse of the conditional.

The best way to explain this is to create an example. You should start by creating a conditional; you can then form the conditional's inverse and contrapositive.

Here is an example:

Conditional: If C, then D. (starting statement)

Inverse: If not C, then not D. (opposite of the conditional)

Contrapositive: If not D, then not C. (reversed opposite of the conditional)

Based on the information from the example, you can conclude:

Primary Similarity:

Both the contrapositive and the inverse are opposites of the conditional (both contain not, implying something would not happen under the given circumstances, rather than something would happen under those circumstances).

Primary Difference:

The contrapositive is a reversed version of the inverse; this causes them to most commonly have different meanings.

I am sure you could find more similarities/differences, but these were the two that stood out to me the most!

(2x - 3)(5x^2 - 2x + 6) = (3x-2)(5x^2 - 2x + 6)
ANSWER AND EXPLANATION:​

Answers

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution 1

The easy way is to compare the leading terms or constants.

LHS

The leading term is:

2x*5x² = 10x³

The constant is:

(-3)*6 = -18RHS

The leading term is:

3x*5x² = 15x³

The constant is:

(-2)*6 = -12

We see both the leading terms (10x³ ≠ 15x³) and constants (-18 ≠ -12) are different so the equation is false.

Solution 2

We see one of the factors is same on both sides:

5x² - 2x + 6

The other factors are:

2x - 3 = 3x - 2

Since this factor is different on both sides, the equation is false

False

How?

Let 5x^2-2x+6 be A

The expression will be

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto A(2x-3)=A(3x-2)[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x-3=3x-2[/tex]

But it's impossible

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x-3\neq 3x-2[/tex]

The quotient of a number and 4 is less than -1.

Answers

Answer:

inequality: n/4 < -1

n < -4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. "The quotient of a number and 4" means that we're dividing a number, n, by 4: [tex]\frac{n}{4}[/tex]. "Less than -1" means that we have to use the < (less than) sign and put -1 after it. When we put these terms in a quantity, they look like this: [tex]\frac{n}{4} < -1[/tex].

2. Now, let's solve the inequality above.

Step 1: Multiply both sides by 4.

[tex]\frac{n}{4}*4 < -1 * 4[/tex] [tex]n < -4[/tex]

Therefore, the inequality is n/4 < -1, and the solution to that inequality is n < -4.

what fraction of a clockwise revolution does the hour of a clock turn through when it goes from a) 4 to 7 b) 8 to 2 c) 1 to 10 ​

Answers

Answer:

a) 3/12 = 1/4

b) 6/12 = 1/2

c) 9/12 = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance traveled by the hour hand, subtract the beginning position from the ending position. For example, in a, the distance traveled between 4:00 and 7:00 is three hours. Since there are 12 total hours on a clock, the fraction would be 3/12 (traveled/whole revolution). Simplify further to get 1/4.

The other two problems are very similar to the explanation above. Treat the second problem's ending time as 14:00, since it is two hours after 12:00.
