Generic sugar which costs $2.23/kg is made by combining brand X sugar which costs $1.18/kg with brand Y sugar which costs $3.98/kg. Find the number of kg of brand X sugar and brand Y sugar required to make 40 kg of generic sugar.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

X = 14 kg

Y= 7 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

LET  X and Y equal the amounts of brand X and Y

X = kg of brand X

Y = kg of brand Y

we know:

1)   X    +    Y   =   21    (kg)

2)   1X  +   4Y  =   2(X + Y)        (This is the cost/kg * amounts for total cost)  

Coefficients 1,4,2  are the cost/kg)

substitute eq. 1 (X+Y), = 21 into right side of equation 2

1X + 4Y = (21)*2

use elimination to solve 2 equations

X   +   Y = 21

X   + 4Y = 42        (now subtract,       note:  I wrote the 1X as just X)

------------------

0     -3Y  = -21       OR   Y = 7 kg   so X = (21-7) OR   X = 14 kg

Tom made a vegetable pizza and a pepperoni pizza. he cut the vegetable pizza into 5 slices and the pepperoni pizza into 10 equal slices Tom's friends ate 2 slices of vegetable pizza and 4 slices of pepperoni pizza. Construct Arguments Tom says his friends ate the same amount of vegetable pizza as pepperoni pizza how could that be true?**​

Answers

I may not be the best at this but I believe that Tom’s friends ate the same amount of pepperoni pizza to vegetable pizza because He cut the pizza into 5 slices as to the pepperoni into 10 slices is. The fraction of Vegetable to Pepperoni is 1/2 so 2 vegetable slices is the same amount as 4 slices because the pepperoni pizza is in smaller sizes compared to the Vegetable pizza.

Answer:

That could be true because they are equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

They are equivalent because one slice of the vegtable pizza is equal to 2 little slices 1/5=2/10 , 2/5 = 4/10 , 3/5 = 6/10 , 4/5 = 8/10 5/5 = 10/10 . So you basicly cut each fifth into half

Abbigail brought 47 bags of candy for the party. Each bag contained 21 pieces of candy. If there are 500 people at the party, does she have enough to give everybody 2 pieces of candy?

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

because you multiply 21 times 47 =987 and there is 500 people if Abbigali wants to give ereyone 2 he has to have 1,000

Answer: no

Step-by-step explanation:

47 bgs tims 21 in each bag gives

47 x 21 = 987 candies in all

if there are 500 people then lets divide the number of candies by the number of people to see how much each person gets

so 987/500  = 1.97

so NO there would not be enough candies for each person to get 2

as you see each person will get 1.97

The median in statistics is discussed below.

What are algebraic expressions?In mathematics, an expression or mathematical expression is a finite combination of symbols that is well-formed according to rules that depend on the context.Mathematical symbols can designate numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping to help determine order of operations and other aspects of logical syntax.

Given is the median value.

The median is the value in the middle of a data set, meaning that 50% of data points have a value smaller or equal to the median and 50% of data points have a value higher or equal to the median.Mathematically, we can write -

        [tex]$\mathrm{Med}(X) = \begin{cases} X[\frac{n+1}{2}] & \text{if n is odd} \\ \frac{X[\frac{n}{2}] + X[\frac{n}{2}+1]}{2} & \text{if n is even} \end{cases}[/tex]

Therefore, the median in statistics is discussed above.

Step-by-step explanation:

M is the increase in value by one square point via b.

B is the y axis beginning position.

I could be wrong, though.

Answer:

m=1/2 b=1

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

The y-intercept is b, and the slope is m.

Let's see, the slope is rise/run. the first coordinate is (0,1) and the second is (4,3). 2/4 would be 1/2, so the slope would be 1/2. S0, m is 1/2.

y-intercept is the starting point. We can easily see that the y-intercept is 1, because the first point was (0,1).

so the final equation: y=1/2x+1

For problem 3, the solution is x = 105For problem 4, the solution is x = 75

==========================================================

Explanation for problem 3

For any convex polygon, the sum of the interior angles is equal to 180(n-2), where n is the number of sides.

In this case, we have a hexagon with 6 sides, so n = 6

The interior angles for the hexagon add to 180(n-2) = 180(6-2) = 720

We'll add the given angles and set that sum equal to 720, then solve for x.

135+110+125+120+125+x = 720

615+x = 720

x = 720-615

x = 105

-------------------------------------

Explanation for problem 4

We'll use the same formula and idea as the previous problem.

This time we have n = 4 sides. This is a quadrilateral.

The interior angles add to 180(n-2) = 180*(4-2) = 360 degrees

So,

x+90+80+115 = 360

x+285 = 360

x = 360-285

x = 75

Note: the square angle marker represents 90 degrees

A water well drilling rig has dug to a height of -60 feet after one full day of continuous use.
Assuming the rig drilled at a constant rate, what was the height of the drill after 15 hours?

Answers

The answer should be -37.5 feet unless it is 15 more hours then it is -97.5

Answer:

-3.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If the water well drilling rig dug to a depth of -60 feet after one full day of continuous use, we can assume that the rig drilled at a constant rate throughout the day.

To determine the height of the drill after 15 hours, we need to calculate the average rate of drilling per hour.

PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST

The rate of drilling can be calculated by dividing the total depth (-60 feet) by the total time (24 hours):

Rate of drilling = Total depth / Total time

= -60 feet / 24 hours

= -2.5 feet per hour

Now we can calculate the height of the drill after 15 hours using the rate of drilling:

Height of the drill after 15 hours = Rate of drilling × Time

= -2.5 feet per hour × 15 hours

= -37.5 feet

Therefore, the height of the drill after 15 hours is -37.5 feet.
