Ashley sells 18.6 kg bags of mixed nuts that contain 60% peanuts. To make her product she adds peanuts to Brand A's mixed nuts which contain 20% peanuts. How much of each does she combine?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She combines 9.3 kg of each.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = amount of brand A in kg

Let y = amount of peanuts in kg

First we deal with the amount of each product she uses.

"Ashley sells 18.6 kg bags of mixed nuts that contain 60% peanuts."

x + y = 18.6

Now we deal with just the amount of peanuts.

"To make her product she adds peanuts to Brand A's mixed nuts which contain 20% peanuts."

Brand A contains 20% peanuts, so x kg of brand A contains 0.2x kg of peanuts.

The peanuts she adds are pure peanuts, so all of y is peanuts.

The result is 18.6 kg of a mixture that is 60% peanuts, so the amount of peanuts in the bags she sells is 0.6 * 18.6 kg.

0.2x + y = 0.6 * 18.6

0.2x + y = 11.16

We have a system of equations:

x + y = 18.6

0.2x + y = 11.16

We have y in both equations, so let's subtract the second equation from the first equation to eliminate y.

0.8x = 7.44

Divide both sides by 0.8

x = 9.3

Plug in 9.3 for x in the first equation of the system and solve for y.

x + y = 18.6

9.3 + y = 18.6

y = 9.3

Answer: She combines 9.3 kg of each.

Ross walked 3 m east and 6 m north. How far is he from the starting point

Answers

Answer:

3 sqrt(5) meters

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle so we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

a^2 +b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

3^2+6^2 = c^2

9+36 = c^2

45 = c^2

Taking the square root

sqrt(45) = sqrt(c^2)

sqrt(9*5) = c

sqrt(9) sqrt(5) =c

3sqrt(5) = c

Answers

Answer:

  180 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The Nissan had traveled (120 km/h)(1/3 h) = 40 km when it had the puncture. It started from that location when the puncture was repaired at t = (1/3+1/2) = 5/6, where t is in hours. Then the two vehicles met (again) when ...

  90t = 40+120(t -5/6)

  0 = 40 +30t -100 . . . . . . subtract 90t, eliminate parentheses

  60 = 30t . . . . . . . . . . . add 60

  2 = t . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2 hours after leaving, the cars meet again

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between (-3, -4) and (3, 5) can be found using the distance formula.

  d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)

  d = √((3 -(-3))^2 +(5 -(-4))^2) = √(6^2 +9^2) = √117

  d ≈ 10.8

Emily is entering a bicycle race for charity. Her mother pledges $0.30 for every 0.5 mile she
bikes. If Emily bikes 10 miles, how much will her mother donate?
Her mother will donate $

Answers

Answer:

The mother will donate $5

We know that her mother will donate 0.30 for every 0.5 miles she bikes. We can convert this to one mile, which is 0.60 cents per mile. We can now multiply by ten. This will gives us $6.

Another way to solve this is divide 10 by 0.5. This gives us 20, and if we multiply 20 by 0.30 we get $6.

Part A: Using the formula for circumference, solve for the value of pi for each circle. (4 points)

Part B: Use the formula for area and solve for the value of pi for each circle. (4 points)

Part C: What observation can you make about the value of pi for circles A and B? (2 points)

Answers

Answer:

The observation I can make for the values of pi for circles A and B is that the value of pi remains the same whether we find pi using the circumference of the circle or the Area of the circle, the value of pi remains the same for both circles.

Pi = π = 3.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Using the formula for circumference, solve for the value of pi for each circle. (4 points)

The formula for the circumference of circle when Diameter is given = πD

π = Circumference / Diameter

For Circle A :

Circle A has a diameter of 7 inches, a circumference of 21.98 inches.

π = 21.98 inches/7 inches

π = 3.14

For Circle B

The diameter of circle B is 6 inches, the circumference is 18.84 inches

π = 18.84 inches/6 inches

π = 3.14

Part B: Use the formula for area and solve for the value of pi for each circle. (4 points)

The formula for the area of the circle = πr²

Circle A has a diameter of 7 inches, an area of 38.465 square inches.

r = Radius = 7 inches ÷ 2

= 3.5 inches

π = Area / Radius²

π = 38.465 in²/(3.5 inches)²

π = 3.14

For Circle B

The diameter of circle B is 6 inches, and the area is 28.26 square inches.

r = Radius = 6 inches ÷ 2

= 3 inches

π = Area / Radius²

π = 28.26 in²/(3 inches)²

π = 3.14

Part C: What observation can you make about the value of pi for circles A and B? (2 points)

The observation I can make for the values of pi for circles A and B is that the value of pi remains the same whether we find pi using the circumference of the circle or the Area of the circle, the value of pi remains the same for both circles.

The observation is that the values of [tex]\pi[/tex] remain 3.14 when [tex]\pi[/tex] is calculated from the areas and circumferences of both circles

The circumference of a circle

The given parameters are:

Circle A

Diameter = 7 inchesCircumference = 21.98 inches

Circle B

Diameter = 6 inchesCircumference = 18.84 inches

The circumference of a circle is:

[tex]C= \pi d[/tex]

Make [tex]\pi[/tex] the subject

[tex]\pi = \frac{C}{d}[/tex]

For circle A, we have:

[tex]\pi_A = \frac{21.98}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\pi_A = 3.14[/tex]

For circle B, we have:

[tex]\pi_B = \frac{18.84}{6}[/tex]

[tex]\pi_B = 3.14[/tex]

Hence, the value of [tex]\pi[/tex] in both circles is 3.14

The area of a circle

The given parameters are:

Circle A

Diameter = 7 inchesArea = 38.465 square inches.

Circle B

Diameter = 6 inchesArea = 28.26 square inches

The area of a circle is:

[tex]A= \pi \frac{d^2}{4}[/tex]

Make [tex]\pi[/tex] the subject

[tex]\pi = \frac{4A}{d^2}[/tex]

For circle A, we have:

[tex]\pi_A = \frac{4 * 38.465 }{7^2}[/tex]

[tex]\pi_A = 3.14[/tex]

For circle B, we have:

[tex]\pi_B = \frac{4 * 28.26 }{6^2}[/tex]

[tex]\pi_B = 3.14[/tex]

Hence, the value of [tex]\pi[/tex] in both circles is 3.14

The value of pi

The observation is that the values of [tex]\pi[/tex] in both circles when area and circumference are used is 3.14

Mr. Sun borrowed $15,600 for 54 months at simple interest to pay for a new swimming pool. If Mr. Sun paid the bank a total of $21,567.00, what was the simple interest rate of the loan?

Answers

Given:

Mr. Sun borrowed $15,600 for 54 months at simple interest.

Mr. Sun paid the bank a total of $21,567.00.

To find:

The rate of simple interest.

Solution:

We know that,

12 months = 1 year

1 month = [tex]\dfrac{1}{12}[/tex] year

54 months = [tex]\dfrac{54}{12}[/tex] year

54 months = 4.5 years

Simple interest is:

[tex]S.I.=Amount-Principal[/tex]

[tex]S.I.=21567-15600[/tex]

[tex]S.I.=5967[/tex]

Formula for simple interest is:

[tex]S.I.=\dfrac{P\times r\times t}{100}[/tex]

Where, P is principal, r is the rate of interest in percent and t is the number of years.

Putting [tex]S.I=5967,P=15600,t=4.5[/tex], we get

[tex]5967=\dfrac{15600\times r\times 4.5}{100}[/tex]

[tex]596700=70200r[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{596700}{70200}=r[/tex]

[tex]8.5=r[/tex]

Therefore, the rate of simple interest is 8.5%.

For 10 consecutive weeks, Craig recorded the number of inches it rained in his hometown. The data he gathered is listed below. Weekly Rainfall (inches) 5, 3, 5, 4, 3, 3, 2, 3, 2, 5 Create a dot plot that correctly displays the data.

Answers

Answer:

In a dot plot, we have a horizontal axis that represents the different events, and for each time that one of these events happened, we mark a dot on top of the individual event.

In this case, each event is the inches of weekly rainfall.

The data that we have is:

5, 3, 5, 4, 3, 3, 2, 3, 2, 5

For example, we can see that the event "5" (which means a rainfall of 5 inches) appears 3 times, so we would put 3 dots on top of the event "5"

Reordering these, we have:

{2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5}

So:

for 2 inches we would have 2 dots.

for 3 inches we would have 4 dots

for 4 inches we would have 1 dot

for 5 inches we would have 3 dots.
