Solve this application problem using a system of equations: Dan and June mix two kinds of feed for pedigreed dogs. They wish to make 70 pounds of feed worth $0.30 per pound by mixing Feed A worth $0.26 per pound with Feed B worth $0.40 per pound. How many pounds of the cheaper kind should they use in the mix

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

50 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Dan and june mix two kind of feed for pedigreed dogs

Feed A worth is $0.26 per pound

Feed B worth is $0.40 per pound

Let x represent the cheaper amount of feed and y the costlier type of feed

x+y= 70..........equation 1

0.26x + 0.40y= 0.30×70

0.26x + 0.40y= 21.........equation 2

From equation 1

x + y= 70

x= 70-y

Substitutes 70-y for x in equation 2

0.26(70-y) + 0.40y= 21

18.2-0.26y+0.40y= 21

18.2+0.14y= 21

0.14y= 21-18.2

0.14y= 2.8

Divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is 0.14

0.14y/0.14= 2.8/0.14

y= 20

Substitute 20 for y in equation 1

x + y= 70

x + 20= 70

x= 70-20

x = 50

Hence Dan and june should use 50 pounds of the cheaper kind in the mix

Find the measure of AngleJ, the smallest angle in a triangle with sides measuring 11, 13, and 19. Round to the nearest whole degree. 30° 34° 42° 47°

Answers

Answer:

  34°

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines is good for finding angles when only sides are known. We'll use the conventional sides a, b, c, and angles A, B, C. Yes, we know the problem statement calls the smallest angle "J". We trust you can make the translation.

  a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A) . . . . . for sides a, b, c and angle A

Solving for the angle, we get ...

  A = arccos((b² +c² -a²)/(2bc))

Filling in the numbers with "a" being the shortest side, we have ...

  A = arccos((13² +19² -11²)/(2·13·19)) = arccos(409/494)

  A ≈ 34.113°

The smallest angle, ∠J, is about 34°.

solve the systems by the addition method x - 2y = - 4 2x + y = 7

Answers

x - 2y = -42x + y = 7

To solve this system of equations by addition, our first goal is to cancel

out one of the variables by adding the two equations together.

However, if we add these two equations together right away, nothing

will cancel so we need to set things up so a variable will cancel.

Notice that we have an 2x in our second equation.

If we had a -2x in our first equation, then the x's would cancel out.

In order to create a -2x in the first equation, we simply

multiply both sides of the first equation by -2.

So we have (-2)(x - 2y) = (-4)(-2) which can be rewritten as -2x + 4y = 8.

Now rewrite both equations, as shown below.

-2x + 4y = 82x + y = 7

Now when we add the equations together, the x terms

will cancel out and we're left with 5y = 15.

Dividing both sides by 5, y = 3.

To solve for x, plug a 3 in for y in either one of our 2 original equations.

So let's go with our second equation.

Plugging a 3 in for y, we get 2x + (3) = 7.

Now subtract 4 from both sides to get 2x = 4.

Dividing both sides by 2, we fid that x = 2.

Since x = 2 and y = 3, our answer is the ordered pair (2, 3).

Answer:

  about 325

Step-by-step explanation:

On average, the mileage is about 21.7 miles per gallon, so 15 gallons would be good for about 325 miles.

If we look at the table for fills that total 15 gallons, we see the first and last total 330 miles, and the 3rd and 4th total 314 miles. So, we expect somewhere between these values, on average.

A formal average adds the miles driven and divides by the total of gallons used. That result is shown below. While we might estimate that we could drive 325 miles on 15 gallons, we have found that our mileage actually varies.

I think about 325

Because 198+115+154+160+132=759
9+5+7+8+6=35
759/35 is about 21.7

So it’s 21.7*15 is about 325 or 326

Find the coordinates of point BBB on \overline{AC}

start overline, A, C, end overline such that the ratio of ABABA, B to BCBCB, C is 2:12:12, colon, 1.

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of point B are (-2, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Point A (2,−8)

Point C (−4,7)

Point B divides the line AB such that the ratio AB:BC is 2:1.

To find: The coordinates of point B.

Solution:

We can use the segment formula here to find the coordinates of point B which divides line AC in ratio 2:1

[tex]x = \dfrac{mx_{2}+nx_{1}}{m+n}\\y = \dfrac{my_{2}+ny_{1}}{m+n}[/tex]

Where [tex](x,y)[/tex] is the co-ordinate of the point which  

divides the line segment joining the points [tex](x_{1}, y_{1})[/tex] and [tex](x_{2}, y_{2})[/tex] in the ratio [tex]m:n[/tex].

m = 2

n = 1

As per the given values  

[tex]x_{1} = 2\\x_{2} = -4\\y_{1} = 8\\y_{2} = 7[/tex]

Putting the values in the formula:

[tex]x = \dfrac{2 \times (-4)+1\times 2}{2+1}=\dfrac{-8+2}{3} =-2\\y = \dfrac{2\times 7+1 \times (-8)}{2+1} = \dfrac{6}{3} =2[/tex]

So, the coordinates of point B are (-2, 2).

Finding the midpoint:

[tex]( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )[/tex]

[tex] = ( \frac{3 + 2}{2} , \: \frac{7 + ( - 1)}{2} )[/tex]

[tex] = ( \frac{5}{2} , \: \frac{7 - 1}{2} )[/tex]

Answer:

(2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Welol to find the line of (3,7) and (2,-1) we need to use the following formula,

[tex]\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}[/tex]

So -1 is y2 7 is y1 so -1 - 7 = -8

2-3 = -1

Hence, the slope of the line is 8.

And graphing more points on the graph using the slope we can see the y intercept is -17.

So the equation is y = 8x - 17

The equation of the graphed line is 2x – y = –6. A coordinate plane with a line passing through (negative 3, 0) and (0, 6). What is the x-intercept of the graph?

Answers

Answer:

A: -3

Step-by-step explanation:

I got it right on my quiz!

If  equation of the graphed line is 2x – y = –6 then the x-intercept of the graph is -3.

To find the x-intercept of the graph, we need to determine the x-coordinate where the line intersects the x-axis.

At the x-intercept, the y-coordinate is zero.

Given the equation of the line as 2x - y = -6.

we can substitute y = 0 since it is the y-coordinate at the x-intercept.

2x - 0 = -6

2x = -6

Divide both sides by 2:

x = -6/2

x = -3

Therefore, the x-intercept of the graph is -3.

Calculate the amount of paint needed to cover the following door:
Note: You do not paint the window on the inside.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The door is shape is a combination of a rectangle and a semicircle with a square window.

Area of the door = Area of rectangle + area of a semi circle

Area of a rectangle = Length * Width (LW)

area of a semicircle = πr²/2 where r is the radius of the semi circle.

Given the length of the rectangle = 2m and its width = 1m

Area of rectangle = 2*1 = 2m²

Given the radius of the semicircle = 1/2 m

Area of the semi circle = π(0.5)²/2

= 0.25π/2

= 0.785/2

Area of the semicircle= 0.3925m²

Area of the door = 2+0.3925

Area of the door = 2.3925m²

Since we are not to paint the window, we will subtract the area of the window from the total area.

Area of the window = area of a square = 0.2*0.2

= 0.04m²

Area to be painted = Area of door - Area of the square

Area to be painted = 2.3925m² - 0.04m²

Area to be painted  = 2.3535m²

Note that there was no enough information for us to calculate the amount of paint needed but knowing the area of the part to be painted can guide us.

Quota Sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

Quota Sampling is a non-probability sampling method in research, where the researcher forms subgroups of individuals who are representative of the entire population through random selection. Quota sampling is often used by researchers who want to get an accurate representation of the entire population. It saves time and money especially if accurate samples are used.

In the example given above, where the research creates subgroups of 30 pre-school children by dividing them into 10 two-year-old children, 10 three-year-old, and 10 four-year-old children, he has applied the quota sampling.  These subgroups would give a proper representation of the preschool children in local daycare centers.

STEP 2:Since POQ is a right angled triangle, by pythagoras theoram.

STEP 3:After applying formula , PQ =10cm .length of each side of rhombus is 10cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the first image is a rhombus with its diagonals 12cm and 16cm

You can see that the diagonals divide the rhombus into four right triangles and that the hypotenuse of each triangle is one side of the rhombus.

In the second image I picked out one triangle from the rhombus and slashed the length of the diagonals of the rhombus in half to get the sides of the triangle.

Now all you have to do is use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse of the triangle which will give you the length of side of rhombus

6² + 8² = hypotenuse²

36 + 64 = h²

100 = h²

h = √100

h = 10

All the side of the rhombus are equal so all the sides of the rhombus are 10cm

27 An old-fashioned bicycle has two differently sized wheels. The circumference of the front wheel is 9 feet larger than the circumference of the back wheel. Thomas biked for a while and, according to his equipment, the front wheel went all the way around 500 times and the smaller wheel went all the way around 1400 times. How far, in feet, did Thomas bike?

Answers

Answer:

Half ans is in pic...

now, the circumference of the smaller wheel, will just be C = 2πr, with a radius of "r".

we also know that the large wheel has a circumference that is 9 feet larger than the small one, so, since the small one has a circumference of 2πr, then the large one will have a circumference of 2πr + 9.

after Thomas cycled for a while, the large did 500 revolutions, or times around, whilst the small one did 1400, since it's smaller.  On that time, they covered however, the same amount of ground, since they're on the same bike.

The amount covered by the small one in 1400 cycles, is 1400(2πr), that's how much ground it covered.

The amount covered by the large one in 500 cycles, is 500(2πr + 9).

And we know that ground covered, is the same for both, therefore, we also know that   1400(2πr)  =  500(2πr + 9).
