Answer: 13.12 pounds of the candy that sells for $1.80 per pound 1.88 pounds of the candy that sells for $3 per pound should be in the mixture.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of the candy that sells for $1.80 per pound that should be in the mixture.
Let y represent the number of pounds of the candy that sells for $3.00 per pound that should be in the mixture.
The total pounds of both candies in the mixture is 15. It means that
x + y = 15
Since he wants to sell the mixture for $1.95 per pound, the cost of the mixture per pound would be 1.95(x + y)
The equation would be
1.8x + 3y = 1.95(x + y)- - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 15 - y into equation 1, it becomes
1.8(15 - y) + 3y = 1.95(15 - y + y)
27 - 1.8y + 3y = 29.25
- 1.8y + 3y = 29.25 + 27
1.2y = 2.25
y = 2.25/1.2
y = 1.88
x = 15 - y = 15 - 1.88
x = 15 - 1.88 = 13.12
Answer:
the grocer should mix approximately 13.12 pounds of 1st candy.
the grocer should mix approximately 1.88 pounds of 2nd candy.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information.
let x represent the pounds of the first candy and y represent the pound of the second candy
We are being told that the grocer wants to sell a total of 15 pounds,
so;
[tex]x+y = 15 \\ \\x= 15-y[/tex] ----- (1)
also; we are being informed that one kind sells for $1.80 per pound, and the other sells for $3.00 per pound. and he wants to mix a total of 15 pounds and sell it for $1.95 per pound.
So;
[tex]1.80 x + 3y = 15(1.95)[/tex]
[tex]1.80x + 3y = 29.25[/tex] ------(2)
Replacing equation (1) into 2 ; we have :
1.8(15 - y) + 3y = 29.25
27 - 1.8y + 3y = 29.25
- 1.8y + 3y = 29.25 - 27
1.2y = 2.25
y = 2.25/1.2
y = 1.88
Therefore, the grocer should mix approximately 1.88 pounds of 2nd candy.
Replacing the value of y into equation (1)
x = 15 - y
x= 15 - 1.88
x = 13.12
Therefore, the grocer should mix approximately 13.12 pounds of 1st candy.

Answer:
a) 50π cm^2
b) π/8
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The formula for the area of a semicircle is ...
A = (1/2)πr^2 = (1/2)π(d/2)^2 = (π/8)d^2
For a diameter of 20 cm, the area is ...
A = (π/8)(20 cm)^2 = 50π cm^2 . . . . . the area of the semicircle
__
The formula for the area of a quarter circle is ...
A = (1/4)πr^2
For a radius of 20 cm, the area is ...
A = (π/4)(20 cm)^2 = 100π cm^2 . . . . . the area of the quarter circle
__
The shaded area is the difference of the areas of the quarter circle and semicircle:
shaded area = (100π cm^2) -(50π cm^2)
shaded area = 50π cm^2
__
b) The ratio of the shaded area to the square area is ...
shaded area / square area = (50π cm^2)/(20 cm)^2 = π/8

The interior angles of a triangle are 60,45and 75.the shortest side is 10cm less than the longest side, determine the perimeter of the triangle to the nearest cm.include a diagram please and thank you!!
Answer:
20 cm.Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the permiter is defined as
[tex]P=L+S+M[/tex]
Where [tex]L[/tex] is the longest side, [tex]S[/tex] is the smallest and [tex]M[/tex] is the middle side.
If [tex]L=x[/tex] then, [tex]S=x-20[/tex], where we need to find an expression for [tex]M[/tex] using the law of cosines.
[tex]M^{2} =L^{2}+S^{2}-2 \times L \times S \times cos(60\°)\\M=\sqrt{x^{2}+(x-20)^{2}-x(x-20)}\\M=\sqrt{x^{2} +x^{2}-40x+400-x^{2}+20x}=\sqrt{x^{2}-20x+400}[/tex]
Replacing all expression, the perimeter is
[tex]P=x+x-20+\sqrt{x^{2}-20x+400}\\P=2x-20+\sqrt{x^{2}-20x+400}[/tex]
Using a calculator, the perimeter is 20 units centimeters.

Given the explicit formula, calculate the first four (4) terms.
1. f(n) = 9+8n
2. f(n)=8(n+1)-13
3. f(n)=65-9n
plz help me out
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following explicit formula, we are to calculate the first four (4) terms of the sequence.
1) f(n) = 9+8n
When n = 1
f(1) = 9+8(1)
f(1) = 17
when n = 2
f(2) = 9+8(2)
= 9+16
= 25
When n = 3
f(3) = 9+8(3)
f(3) = 33
when n = 4
f(4) = 9+8(4)
= 41
= 25
The first four terms are 17, 25, 33 and 41
2) f(n) = 8(n+1)-13
When n = 1
f(1) = 8(2)-13
f(1) = 3
when n = 2
f(2) = 8(3)-13
= 24-13
= 11
When n = 3
f(3) = 8(4)-13
f(3) = 32-13
= 19
when n = 4
f(4) = 8(5)-13
= 40-13
= 27
The first four terms are 3, 11, 19 and 27
3) f(n) = 65-9n
When n = 1
f(1) = 65-9(1)
f(1) = 56
when n = 2
f(2) = 65-9(2)
= 65-18
= 47
When n = 3
f(3) = 65-9(3)
f(3) = 65-27
= 38
when n = 4
f(4) = 65-9(4)
= 65-36
= 29
The first four terms are 56, 47, 38 and 29
the graph shows the speed of a vehicle during the final 50 seconds of a journey at the start of the 50 seconds the speed is k metres per second
Answer:
a) 27 m/s
b) 30 m/s
c) i) 3
ii) Deceleration
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not complete, the correct question is given as:
The graph shows information about the speed of a vehicle during the final 50 seconds of a journey. At the start of the 50 seconds the speed is k metres per second. The distance travelled during the 50 seconds is 1.35 kilometres.
(a) Work out the average speed of the vehicle during the 50 seconds
(b) Work out the value of k.
(c) (i) Calculate the gradient of the graph in the final 10 seconds of the journey
(ii) Describe what this gradient represents
Answer:
The graph is attached. The total time = 50 seconds, total distance = 1.35 km = 1350 m
a) The average speed is the ratio of the total distance traveled to the total time taken to cover this distance. The average speed is given by the formula:
[tex]Average \ speed=\frac{total\ distance}{total\ time}\\ Substituting: \\ Average \ speed=\frac{1350\ m}{50\ s} = 27\ m/s[/tex]
b) From the graph, the total distance covered is the area of the graph. The graph is made up of a rectangle and triangle, the area of the graph is equal to the sum of area of rectangle and area of triangle.
[tex]Total \ distance=Total\ area=Area\ of \ rectangle+Area\ of \ triangle\\Total \ distance=(length *breadth)+\frac{1}{2}base*height\\1350 \ m=(40*k)+0.5*10*k\\1350=40k+5k\\45k=1350\\k=1350/45\\k=30\ m/s[/tex]c) i) The gradient in the last 10 seconds is the ratio of change in speed to change in time
[tex]Gradient=\frac{change\ in\ speed }{change\ in\ time}=\frac{0-k}{50-40} \\ bt \ k=30\\Gradient=\frac{0-30}{50-40}= \frac{-30}{10} =-3[/tex]
ii) Since the gradient is negative it means it is deceleration. That is in the in the last 10 seconds the vehicle decelerates at a rate of 3 m/s²
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a)34 m/s
b) 40k=34
k=34/40
k=0.85 m/s
It is known that 60% of the students at a large university have a job and 40% do not have a job. If three of these students are randomly selected, what is the probability at least one does not have a job? (Hint: the compliment of this event is all three have jobs.)
Answer:
78.4% probability at least one does not have a job
Step-by-step explanation:
For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a job, or they do not have a job. The probability of a student having a job is independent of other students. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
60% of the students at a large university have a job
This means that [tex]p = 0.6[/tex]
Three of these students are randomly selected
This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
What is the probability at least one does not have a job?
Either all of them have a job, or at least one does not. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So
[tex]P(X < 3) + P(X = 3) = 1[/tex]
We want P(X < 3). Then
[tex]P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.6)^{3}.(0.4)^{0} = 0.216[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3) = 1 - 0.216 = 0.784[/tex]
78.4% probability at least one does not have a job

Answer:
1-year: $2200, 2-year: $3200, 3-year: $6600
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume y = Amount invested for 1 year.
y + 1000 = investment amount for 2 years
12000 - (y + y + 1000 ) = amount invested for 3 years
11000 - 2y = amount invested for 3 years
Total interest
Multiplying each by its corresponding rate
(0.02 × y) + (0.05 × (y+1000)) + (0.06 × (11000-2y)) = 600
0.02y + 0.05y + 50 + 660 - 0.12y = 600
-0.05y + 710 = 600
-0.05y = 600 - 710
-0.05y = - 110
y = 2200
Therefore first year = y = $2200
Investment for 2 years =y + 1000 = 2200 + 1000 = $3200
Investment for 3 years = 11000 - 2y = (11000 - (2*2200)) = (11000 - 4400) = $6600
There are three types of tickets to enter the amusement park of a particular city. The normal ticket costs R $ 52.00, the child ticket costs R $ 20.00 and the elderly ticket costs R $ 28.00. A group of friends went to the park and paid in total R $ 480.00. In this group, each adult (normal or senior) took two children. How many normal tickets purchased?
Answer:
3 normal tickets were sold, 3 tickets were sold for the elderly, and 12 tickets were sold for children
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = normal ticket number
Let y = child ticket number
Let z = elderly ticket number
The total amount spent is 480, so we can create this equation:
52 * x + 20 * y + 28 * z = 480
They also tell us that each adult took two children, so:
y = 2 * (x + z)
We have two equations and three unknowns, therefore we must simplify and do trial and error. First, let's substitute "y" in terms of "x" and "z" in the first equation, then simplify:
52 * x + 20 * y + 28 * z = 480
52 * x + 20 * 2 * (x + z) + 28 * z = 480
52 * x + 40 * (x + z) + 28 * z = 480
52 * x + 40 * x + 40 * z + 28 * z = 480
92 * x + 68 * z = 480
23 * x + 17 * z = 120
Let's solve for x in terms of e:
23 * x = 120-17 * z
x = (120-17 * z) / 23
We know that (120 - 17 * z) has to be a multiple of 23 for "x" to be an integer. So let's look at testing some values of "z" to make valid values for "x":
120-17 (0) = 120 (not multiple of 23)
120-17 (1) = 103 (not multiple of 23)
120-17 (2) = 86 (not multiple of 23)
120-17 (3) = 69 (multiple of 23)
120-17 (4) = 52 (not multiple of 23)
120-17 (5) = 35 (not multiple of 23)
120-17 (6) = 18 (not multiple of 23)
120-17 (7) = 1 (not multiple of 23)
After that, we get negative values for "x", so here there is only one possible value for "x", so we know that z = 3:
Now we can solve for "x" and "y":
x = (120-17 * 3) / 23
x = (120-51) / 23
x = 69/23
x = 3
Now for and:
y = 2 * (x + y)
y = 2 (3 + 3)
y = 12
Therefore, 3 normal tickets were sold, 3 tickets were sold for the elderly, and 12 tickets were sold for children.

Answer:
69.08 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of each container
= l*b*h
= 20cm*30cm*50cm
= 30000cm ^3
= 0.03 m^3
The volume of 200 of these containers
= 0.03*200
= 6 m^3
The volume of the tank is also equal to 6m^3
Volume of tank = πr^2h
πr^2h= 6
πr^2= 6/4
r^2 = 6/4*7/22
= 42/88
= 0.477
r= √0.477
= 0.6908m
= 69.08cm
Answer:
Base radius = 69.08 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of each container = 20*30*50
= 30,000 cm^3
200 of these has a volume of
200 * 30000
= 6,000,000 cm^3.
The volume of the cylinder = π r^2 h
= π r^2 * 400 = 6000000
r^2 = 6000000 / (π * 400)
r^2 = 4774.65
r = 69.08 cm.
Pencils that were selling at three for 25 cents are now on sale at five for 29 cents. How much money, in cents, would you save by buying 60 pencils at the sale price
Answer:
We would save $1.52 cents
Step-by-step explanation:
3 the pencil were at sale for 25 cent
1 pencil = 25 cent/3 =8.33 cent per one pencil
5 the pencil were at sale for 29 cent
1 pencil = 29 cent/5 =5.8 cent per one pencil
If we bought 60 pencil in group of 3 for 25 cent
=60/3= 20 pencil
25cents * 20 pencil = 500 cent per 60 pencil
If we bought 60 pencil in group of 5 for 29 cent
=60/5= 12 pencil
29cents * 12 pencil = 348 cent per 60 pencil
From the analysis, the 5 pencil for 29 cent is cheaper are we are going to save: 500-348= 152 cents

Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of boys who do play = 1593/2451 = 0.6499 or 64.99% (if you times by 100 to change to percentage)
Probability of boys who do not play =858/2451 = 0.35 or 35%
Probability of girls who do play = 1361/2996 = 0.4542 or 45.42%
Probability of girls who do not play = 1635/2996 = 0.5457 or 54.57%
Probability of boys and girls who play = 2954/5447 = 0.5423 or 54.23%
Probability of boys and girls who do not play = 2493/5447 =0.4577 or 45.77%
you can see the correct statement is
Probability of girls who do play = 1361/2996 = 0.4542 or 45.42%
total number of girls is 2996 and we found out almost 54% do not play and almost 45% play

Which statement is true about f(x) + 2 = 1/6 |x-3| ?
A) The graph of f(x) has a vertex of (–3, 2).
B) The graph of f(x) is a horizontal compression of the graph of the parent function.
C) The graph of f(x) opens downward.
D) The graph of f(x) has range of f(x) ≥ –2.
Answer:
Option D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Statement given,
f(x) + 2 = [tex]\frac{1}{6}|x - 3|[/tex]
Or f(x) = [tex]\frac{1}{6}|x-3|[/tex] -2
Parent function, g(x) = |x|
Absolute value function g(x) when shifted 3 units right,
g'(x) = |x - 3|
Vertically compressed by [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] units and shifted 2 units down, then the new function will be
f(x) = [tex]\frac{1}{6}|x - 3|-2[/tex]
Characteristics of the graph of this function:
1). Vertex at (3, -2).
2). Vertical compression of the parent function by [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex].
3). Graph opens upwards.
4). Range of the graph f(x) is f(x) ≥ -2.
Therefore, Option D will be the answer.

Find the distance between the points.
(4,6),(9,6)
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the difference between coordinates:
(x²-x1) = (9 - 4) = 5
(y²-y1) = (6 - 6) = 0
Square the results and sum them up:
(5)² + (0)² = 25 + 0 = 25
Now Find the square root

What I did was I multiplied each number by 5, then added 5.
the vertex of this parabola is at (4,-3). When the x-value is 5, the y-value is -6. what is the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola's equation
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The work form of this upside down parabola is
[tex]y=-|a|(x-h)^2+k[/tex]
It's VERY important that you remember that the negative value there in front of the absolute value of a just means that the parabola is upside down. a itself will not be negative (and we know that because of the absolute value symbols there!). Filling in the x, y, h, and k values we were given allows us to solve for the |a|:
[tex]-6=-|a|(5-4)^2-3[/tex] and
[tex]-6=-|a|(1)^2-3[/tex] and
[tex]-6=-|a|1-3[/tex] and
[tex]-6=-|a|(-2)[/tex] and
3 = -|a|
Again, the negative simply tells us the parabola is upside down, so the absolute value of a = 3, choice c.
