The Jones have some friends drop in. They wish to serve sherry but do not have enough to serve all the same kind. So they mix some which is 20% alcohol with some which is 14% alcohol and have 5 quarts, which is 16% alcohol. How much of each king of sherry they have to mix

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

they have to mix 1.67 quarts 20% and 3.33 quarts 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

let x quarts of the 20 percent alcohol and y quarts of 14 percent alcohol be mixed to form 5 quarts

i.e

x + y = 5  -------------let this be equation 1

20%x + 14%y = 16%5

0.2x + 0.14y = 0.8

multiply through by 50

10x + 7y = 40 -------------let this be equ 2

so let multiply equation by -7

-7x - 7y = -35       ------------- let this be equ 3

add equ 2 and 3

3x + 0 = 5

x = 5/3 ≈ 1.67

substitute value of x in equation 1

5/3 + y = 5

y = 5 - 5/3

y = 10/3 ≈ 3.33

Therefore; they have to mix 1.67 quarts 20% and 3.33 quarts 14%

Estimate the diameter of a circle with a circumference of 80 feet
1. 12.74 feet
2. 25.48 feet
3. 40 feet
4. 50.96 feet

Answers

Answer:

2) 25.48

The diameter of the circle     d = 25.48                

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

we know that the diameter of a circle  d = 2 r

The circumference of the circle = 2π r

Given that the circumference of the circle = 80 feet

Step(ii):-

 The circumference of the circle = 2π r = 80

                                ⇒ π (2r )= 80

                               ⇒  πd = 80

                               ⇒ [tex]d = \frac{80}{3.14}[/tex]

                                  d = 25.477

Final answer:-

The diameter of the circle     d = 25.477                                

it costs $3 to rent bowling shoes. Each game costs $2.25. How many games can you bowl if you have $9.00?​

Answers

Answer:

2 games

Step-by-step explanation:

$2.25 + $2.25 = $4.50. $4.50 + $3 = $7.50. $9 - $7.50 = $1.50. You would have $1.50 as your change.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

BE is midsegment of ACDF

BE = 1/2(CD + FA)2(3x + 3) = 6x - 16 + 4x - 106x + 6 = 10x - 2610x - 6x = 6 + 264x = 32x = 8

Similarly, FA is midsegment of BEZW

FA = 1/2(BE + WZ)WZ = 2FA - BEWZ = 2(4x - 10) - (3x + 3)WZ = 8x - 20 - 3x - 3WZ = 5x - 23

Substitute x with 8:

WZ = 5*8 - 23 = 40 - 23 = 17

The answer is 132 ft

Find the solution of the system of equations.
4x – 2y = -6
x + 4y = -24

Answers

Answer:

-4,-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the system of equations, I can't see any way to add the equations together to eliminate a variable. So, I decided to use substitution. First, I created 2 new equations, x = -24 - 4y and Y=2X+3 by rewriting each equation to solve for x and y. Now, I can take one of these equations and insert it in the opposite equation and solve for a variable.

4(-24 - 4y) - 2y = -6

-96 -16y -2y = -6

-18y = 90

y = -5

Now, I can just insert this in one of my equations and solve for x, and get my solution, which gets me x = -4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

r = d/2

r = 4/2

r = 2

pi = 3.14

Circumference = 2 * pi * r

Circumference = 2 * 3.14 * 2

Circumference = 12.56

Area = pi r^2

Area = 3.14 * 2^2

Area = 4 * 3.14

Area = 12.56

A seasonal index for a monthly series is about to be calculated on the basis of three years’ accumulation of data. The three previous July values were 110, 150, and 130. The average over all months is 190. The approximate seasonal index for July is:

Answers

Answer:

0.684

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows

Seasonal index = Average value for July ÷ Average over all months

Where, Average value for July = ( 110 + 150 + 130 ) ÷ 3

= 390 ÷ 3 = 130

And, average over all months = 190

So by putting the value in the formula, we get

Seasonal index = 130 ÷ 190

= 0.684211 or 0.684

Hence, approximate seasonal index for July is 0.684.

Integrate [tex]e^{4x}\sqrt{1+e^{2x} } dx[/tex] please show work so i can learn

Answers

Answer:

[tex](\frac{(1+e^{2x}) ^{\frac{5}{2} } }{{5}} + \frac{(1+e^{2x} )^{\frac{3}{2} } }{{3}} )+C[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that the function

                    f(x) = [tex]e^{4x} \sqrt{1+e^{2x} }[/tex]

Now integrating on both sides, we get

                 [tex]\int\limits{f(x)} \, dx = \int\limits{e^{4x} \sqrt{1+e^{2x} } dx[/tex]

                               =    [tex]\int\limits{e^{2x} e^{2x} \sqrt{1+e^{2x} } dx[/tex]

                         

Step(ii):-

  Let  [tex]1 + e^{2x} = t[/tex]

           [tex]e^{2x} = t -1[/tex]  

          [tex]2e^{2x}dx = d t[/tex]

          [tex]e^{2x}dx = \frac{1}{2} d t[/tex]

                = [tex]\int\limits{( \sqrt{1+e^{2x} }) e^{2x} e^{2x} dx[/tex]

                  = [tex]\int\limits {\sqrt{t}(t-1)\frac{1}{2} dt }[/tex]

                 = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \int\limits {\sqrt{t} (t) -\sqrt{t} ) dt }[/tex]

                = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \int\limits {(t^{\frac{1}{2} } t^{1} +t^{\frac{1}{2} } ) } \, dx[/tex]

                [tex]= \frac{1}{2} \int\limits {(t^{\frac{3}{2} } +t^{\frac{1}{2} } ) } \, dx[/tex]

               = [tex]\frac{1}{2} (\frac{t^{\frac{3}{2} +1} }{\frac{3}{2}+1 } + \frac{t^{\frac{1}{2} +1} }{\frac{1}{2}+1 } )+C[/tex]

              =  [tex]\frac{1}{2} (\frac{t^{\frac{3}{2} +1} }{\frac{5}{2} } + \frac{t^{\frac{1}{2} +1} }{\frac{3}{2} } )+C[/tex]

             = [tex]\frac{1}{2} (\frac{t^{\frac{5}{2} } }{\frac{5}{2} } + \frac{t^{\frac{3}{2} } }{\frac{3}{2} } )+C[/tex]

            = [tex](\frac{(1+e^{2x}) ^{\frac{5}{2} } }{{5}} + \frac{(1+e^{2x} )^{\frac{3}{2} } }{{3}} )+C[/tex]

Final answer:-

= [tex](\frac{(1+e^{2x}) ^{\frac{5}{2} } }{{5}} + \frac{(1+e^{2x} )^{\frac{3}{2} } }{{3}} )+C[/tex]
