A cement mixture costs $33 a ton. It is composed of Grade A cement at $36 a ton and Grade B cement at
$24 a ton. How were these two cements mixed?

Answers

Answer 1
If we used “a” tons of grade A and “b” tons of grade B we would get a + b tons of mixture.
Converting to costs we get 36a + 24b = 33(a + b)
36a + 24b = 33a + 33b
36a - 33a = 33b - 24b
3a = 9b
a = 3b
This means the mixture contains 3 times as much of grade A than grade B
The ratio of grade A : grade B = 3 : 1

For example if we mixed 3 tons of A with 1 ton of B we would get 4 tons of mixture
The cost would be 3 x 36 + 1 x 24 = 108 + 24 = $132 for 4 tons = $33 per ton

A telephone pole has a wire attached to its top that is anchored to the ground. The distance from the bottom of the pole to the anchor point is 49 feet less than the height of the pole. If the wire is to be 14 feet longer than the height of the pole, what is the height of the pole?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  105 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the height of the pole. Then (x -49) is the distance from the pole to the anchor point, and (x+14) is the length of the wire from the top of the pole to the anchor point.

The Pythagorean theorem gives us the relation ...

  (x +14)² = x² +(x -49)²

  x² +28x +196 = x² +x² -98x +2401 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  x² -126x +2205 = 0 . . . . . . . . put in standard form

  x² -126x +3969 -1764 = 0 . . . . "complete the square)

  (x -63) = ±√1764 . . . . . . add 1764, take the square root

  x = 63 +42 = 105 . . . . . . highest value root. The pole must be higher than 49 feet

The height of the pole is 105 feet.

Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of13400cubic centimeters per min at the same time that water is being pumped into the tank at a constant rate. The tank has height8meters and the diameter at the top is6meters. If the water level is rising at a rate of24centimeters per minute when the height of the water is5meters, find the rate at which water is being pumped into the tank in cubic centimeters per minute.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  2,664,118.8 cm³/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter at the water level of 5 m is (5/8)(6 m) = 3.75 m, so the area of the water surface is ...

  A = (π/4)d² = (π/4)(3.75 m)² ≈ 11.044662 m²

When rising at the rate of 24 cm/min, the volume is increasing at the rate ...

  (110,446.62 cm²)(24 cm/min = 2,650718.8 cm³/min

The input volume must be sufficient to accommodate this increase as well as the leakage. Then the input volume is ...

  2,650718.8 cm³/min + 13,400 cm³/min = 2,664,118.8 cm³/min

Volume of the triangular prism = ½ × a × c × h

Where,

a = 8 m

c = 5.1 m

h = 10 m

Plug in the known values and solve

Volume = ½ × 8 × 5.1 × 10

Volume = 4 × 5.1 × 10

A canoeist traveling with the current traveled the 24 miles between two riverside campsites in 2 hours. The return trip against the current took 3 hours. Find the speed of the canoeist in still water and the speed of the current, both in miles per hour.

Answers

Answer:

Speed of canoiest is 10 miles/hour.

Speed of current is 2 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of canoiest is v and the speed of current is u.

distance = speed x time

24 = (v + u ) x 2

v + u = 12 ..... (1)

Now

24 = (v- u) x 3

v - u = 8 .... (2)

By solving (1) and (2)

2 v = 20

v = 10 miles/hour

u = 2 miles/hour

Answer: [tex]y^\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so when taking roots the number in the little corner at the left of the radical sign (if there is one) is the root you take. It could be the 4th root, 6th root, or the x root. You don't have to use the radical sign though, you can use an exponent to write it. All you have to do is take the reciprocal of the number to find what to write for the exponent. So for those examples it would be [tex]\frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{6} ,\frac{1}{x}[/tex]. The number in the top left of the radical sign is 8 so the answer would be [tex]y^\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
