Answer:

111/20 = 5.55

Step-by-step explanation:

He used a total of 1  3/4 and  3  4/5 salt.

Convert both these mixed numbers into fractions.

=> 7/4 + 19/5

Take the LCM of the denominators

=> 35/20 + 76/20

Add the numerators

=> 111/20 = 5.55

He used a total of 111/20 or 5.55 kgs of salt.

The total price of four oranges and five pears is $32 while the total price of three oranges and two pears is $17. How much is a pear?

Answers

Answer:

A pear is 3.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: A pear cost $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total price of four oranges and five pears is $32 then we could represent it by the equation  4x + 5y = 32   where x is cost of one orange and y is the cost of one pear.

The same way we could represent the second statement by the equation

3x + 2y = 17      

We know have the two systems of equations:

4x + 5y = 32

3x + 2y = 17         Solve using the elimination method

  Multiply the top equation by -3 and the down equation by 4 to eliminate x.

-3(4x + 5y) = -3(32) =  -12x - 15y = -96

 4(3x +2y) = 4(17)  =   12x + 8y = 68    

We now have the two new equations:

-12x -15y = -96      Add both equations

12x + 8y = 68            

      - 7y = -28

     y= 4    

Which means the cost of one pear is $4.

2. Describe the means-extremes property.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

Ex: 2:3 :: 6:9

In this question, the means are 3 and 6.

The extremes are 2 and 9.

We use this method to find whether the two ratios are equal or not.

We multiply the means and the extremes, and if there products are same, then these two ratios are proportional.

If these two ratios are proportional, their "means" = "extremes"

=> Means = Extremes

=> 3 x 6 = 2 x 9

=> 18 = 18

So, these two ratios are proportional.

what is the fewest number of 7's that can be added together to make their sum greater than 4000

Answers

Answer:

572 7s are needed to be added together

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, what we are asked here is the multiple of 7 which is closest to but above 4,000

Then, from this multiple , the number of 7s which are added together to give it is our answer.

By multiplication; 7 * 572 = 4,004

This is the closest multiple of 7 to 4000 which is also above it.

So the fewest number of 7s which we can add together is 572

The length of the major axis of the ellipse below is 10 What is the sum of the lengths of the red and blue line segments? A. 10 B. 5 C. 15 D. 20

Answers

Answer:

A. 10

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that

The length of the major axis of the ellipse is 10

i.e

2 a = 10

Also, the ellipse is the curve that consists of 2 focal points  in order that the total of the distance to the 2 focal points would remain constant for each and every point displayed in the curve

Now we assume that P is the curve point

So,

PF1 + PF2

i.e

2 a (blue line) + (red line)

2 a = 10

Therefore the sum of the length is 10

a) x^2 - 5x + 11 = 0
b) -2x^2 - 7x + 15 = 0
c) 4x^2 - 44x + 121 = 0​

Answers

Answer:

A. No real solution

B. 5 and -1.5

C. 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is:

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ - b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}} \end{array}[/tex], with a being the x² term, b being the x term, and c being the constant.

Let's solve for a.

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {5^2 - 4\cdot1\cdot11} }}{{2\cdot1}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {25 - 44} }}{{2}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {-19} }}{{2}}} \end{array}[/tex]

We can't take the square root of a negative number, so A has no real solution.

Let's do B now.

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {7^2 - 4\cdot-2\cdot15} }}{{2\cdot-2}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {49 + 120} }}{{-4}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {169} }}{{-4}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm 13 }}{{-4}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7+13}{4} = 5\\\frac{7-13}{4}=-1.5[/tex]

So B has two solutions of 5 and -1.5.

Now to C!

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ -(-44) \pm \sqrt {-44^2 - 4\cdot4\cdot121} }}{{2\cdot4}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 44 \pm \sqrt {1936 - 1936} }}{{8}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 44 \pm 0}}{{8}}} \end{array}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{44}{8} = 5.5[/tex]

So c has one solution: 5.5

Find the area and the perimeter of the shaded regions below. Give your answer as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations). The figures below are based on semicircles or quarter circles and problems b), c), and d) are involving portions of a square.

Answers

Answer:

 

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded regions consist of a triangle and a semicircle

Area of shaded regions = Area of Triangle + Area of semicircle

Area of Triangle = (h x b) ÷ 2

Height, h = 10 cm

Base, b = 8 cm

Are of the triangle component = (10 x 8) ÷ 2

= 80 ÷ 2

= 40 cm^2

 Area of semicircle = πr^2 ÷ 2

Diameter, D = 8 cm

Radius, r = 8 cm ÷ 2 = 4 cm

Are of the semicircle component = [π(4^2) ÷ 2)

= 16π ÷ 2

= 16π cm^2

 Total area of shaded regions

= (40+16π) cm^2

= 8 (5 +2π) cm^2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf Area = 8\pi + 40\ cm^2}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\sf Perimeter = 4\pi + 22\ cm}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the figure:

Firstly: Area of semicircle:

[tex]\sf \frac{\pi r^2}{2} \\Where\ r = 4 \ cm\\\frac{\pi (4)^2}{2} \\\frac{16 \pi}{2}\\8 \pi \ cm^2[/tex]

Then Area of Triangle

[tex]\sf 1/2 (Base)(Height)\\1/2(10)(4)\\10*2\\20\ cm^2[/tex]

Area of Figure = Area of Semicircle + 2(Area of triangle)

=> 8π + 2(20)

=> 8π + 40 cm²

Perimeter of Semicircle:

Firstly, we'll have to find the hypotenuse

[tex]\sf c^2 = a^2+b^2\\c^2 = 4^2+10^2\\c^2 = 16+100\\c^2 = 116\\c = 11\ cm[/tex]

Then, Perimeter of the semi-circle:

=> πr

Where r = 4 cm

=> 4π

Now, the perimeter of the whole figure:

=> 4π + 2(11)

=> 4π + 22 cm

If p varies directly with T and p =105 when T=400.Find p when T =500

Answers

Answer:

p = 131.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The variation p varies directly with T is written as

p = kT

where k is the constant of proportionality

To find p when T =500 we must first find the formula for the variation

That's

when p = 105 and T = 400

105 = 400k

Divide both sides by 400

[tex]k = \frac{21}{80} [/tex]

So the formula for the variation is

[tex]p = \frac{21}{80} T[/tex]

when

T = 500

Substitute it into the above formula

That's

[tex]p = \frac{21}{80} \times 500[/tex]

Simplify

The final answer is

p = 131.25

In right triangle ΔABC (m∠C = 90°), point P is the intersection of the angle bisectors of the acute angles. The distance from P to the hypotenuse is equal to 4 in. Find the perimeter of △ABC if AB = 12 in.

Answers

Answer:

the perimeter of ΔABC is 32in

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that intersection point of the angle bisectors refers to the incenter of the triangle,.

Given tmthe radius of 4inch for the centre of the incircle.

One of the properties of the incircle is that the distances (d) from vertex C to the nearest touchpoints are equal and have the value

In an incircle , the distances (d) along vertex C and touchpoints have equal value and can be expressed as

d = 1/2(a +b -c)

And a, b, c represent lengths of the sides

We were given the hypotenuse (c) as 12 in, with the radius of 4inch for the

distance from the right-angle vertex C to the incircle touchpoints .

We can determine the sum a+b as

4 = (1/2)(a+b -12) .

4/(1/2)= (a+b -12)

8= (a+b -12)

20=a+b

Which is the addition of length of the two legs of the triangle.

We can determine the perimeter which is the addition of the leg lengths as well as the hypotenuse length.

perimeter = 20 in + 12 in = 32 in

Therefore, the perimeter of ΔABC is 32in
