Answer:
50 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
we can use the equation 60+80/100x=1(x+50)
we get 80/100 x because the gummy candies are 80 cents or 80/100x
we get 60 from multiplying 1.20$ x 50 = 60
solve:
60+80/100x = x+50
60 = x-80/100x+50
60-50 = 20/100x
10 = 20/100x
x= 10 x 100/20 = 10x5= 50 pounds
Using proportions, it is found that he should add 50 pounds of gummy candies that cost 80 cents per pound.
What is a proportion?A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.
This problem is organized as follows:
There is a total of 50 + x pounds.Of those, 50 cost $1.2 per pound.x cost $0.8 per pound.The selling price is of $1.Hence:
[tex]\frac{50}{50 + x}1.2 + \frac{x}{50+x}0.8 = 1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{60 + 0.8x}{50 + x} = 1[/tex]
[tex]50 + x = 60 + 0.8x[/tex]
[tex]0.2x = 10[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{10}{0.2}[/tex]
[tex]x = 50[/tex]
He should add 50 pounds of gummy candies that cost 80 cents per pound.

This is a pond in the shape of a prism. It is completely full of water
Colin uses a pump to empty the pond.
The level goes down by 30 cm in the first 30 minutes.
Work out how many minutes Colin has to wait for
the pond to completely empty.
Kindly check picture to the question below.
Answer:
150 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of prism = height * base area
Height of prism = 1m
Base area = area of a trapezium
Area of trapezium = 0.5(a + b) h
a, b = parallel sides, h= height of trapezium
Area of trapezium = 0.5(1.4+0.6)*2
Area = 0.5(2)*2 = 2m²
Hence,
V of prism = area of trapezium * height of prism
Volume = 2m² * 1m = 2m³
Decrease in water level due to pumping
20cm decrease in 30minutes
(20/100)m in 30 minutes
0.2 m decrease in height of water
Hence, height of water in prism after 30 minutes pumping :
height - 0.2 = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8m
Volume after 30 minutes of pumping :
Base area * new height
2m² * 0.8m = 1.6m³
Decrease in volume over 30 minutes :
(Initial volume - volume after pumping)
2m³ - 1.6m³ = 0.4m³
If ;
0.4m³ = 30 minutes
1.6m³ = x
0.4x = 48
x = 48 / 0.4
x = 120
Hence, it takes 120 minutes for the remaining 1.6m³ to be emptied.
Hence, total wait time :
120 minutes + 30 minutes
= 150 minutes

Use 3.14 as pi
∠A and \angle B∠B are vertical angles. If m\angle A=(6x-11)^{\circ}∠A=(6x−11) ∘ and m\angle B=(5x+4)^{\circ}∠B=(5x+4) ∘ , then find the measure of \angle B∠B.
Answer: [tex]\angle B=79^{\circ}.[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
When two lines cross each other , then the opposite angles are known as vertical angles.
Vertical angles are equal.
Here, ∠A and ∠B are vertical angles.
So, ∠A = ∠B
If [tex]\angle A=(6x-11)^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]\angle B=(5x+4)^{\circ}[/tex]
Then , [tex]6x-11=5x+4[/tex]
Subtract 5x from both sides, we get
[tex]x-11=4[/tex]
Add 11 on both sides, we get
[tex]x=15[/tex]
Now , [tex]\angle B=(5(15)+4)^{\circ}=79^{\circ}[/tex]
Hence, the measure of [tex]\angle B=79^{\circ}.[/tex]

Sam writes on a white board the positive integers from 1 to 6 inclusive, once each, She then writes p
additional fives and q sevens on the board. The mean of all the numbers on the board is then 5.3.
What is the smallest possible value of q?
Answer: The smallest possible value of q is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have the set of N numbers:
{x₁, x₂, x₃, ..., xₙ}
The mean of this set is:
M = (x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + ... + xₙ)/N
Now, in this case our set is:
{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, p times 5, q times 7}
Then we have a total of:
6 + q + p numbers.
The mean of this set will be:
Mean = 5.3 = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + p*5 + q*7)/(6 + p + q)
This is the equation that we will use now.
First, we can simplify this as:
5.3 = (21 + p*5 + q*7)/(6 + p + q)
Now we can pass the denominator in the right to the other side as:
5.3*(6 + p + q) = (21 + p*5 + q*7)
31.8 + p*5.3 + q*5.3 = 21 + p*5 + q*7
Now we want to isolate the variable p in one side of the equation.
p*5.3 - p*5 = 21 - 31.8 + q*7 - q*5.3
p*0.3 = q*1.7 - 10.8
p = (q*1.7 - 10.8)/0.3 = q*(1.7/0.3) - 36
p = q*(1.7/0.3) - 36
p = q*(17/10)*(10/3) - 36
p = q*(17/3) - 36
Now we can see that the denominator is 3, so q should be a multiple of 3.
We want to start with the smallest multiples of 3, but if we use q = 3, then we will have a negative value of p (the same happens if we use 1 = 6)
We do not want that, then we need to use q = 9
p = 9*(17/3) - 36
p = 3*17 - 36
p = 15
Then we have;
9 times the number 7
15 times the number 5 (plus one, because it was already on the first 6 numbers that Sam wrote)
The smallest possible value of q is 9.
Now we want to get the smallest possible value of q.
Remember, p and q need to be positive numbers.
What is the mean of 84 85 85 86 90 92
Answer: The mean is 87
84+ 85 + 85+ 86 +90+ 92 = 522/6 = 87
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
87
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the mean of the a set of numbers, we first need to add all the numbers and divide by the number of terms in the set.
84 + 85 + 85 + 86 + 90 + 92 = 522
There are 6 terms so we divide by 6
522/6 = 87
