We need 56 pints of the 55 % pure fruit juice and 84 pints of the 80 % pure fruit juice to prepare 140 pints of 70 % pure fruit juice.

In this problem we have to use two kinds of juice with different concentrations. To get a certain concentration, we must adjust quantities of each kind and weighted averages offers a method that is easy to apply:

70 · 140 = 55 · x + 80 · (140 - x)

70 · 140 = 80 · 140 - 25 · x

25 · x = 10 · 140

x = 56

We need 56 pints of the 55 % pure fruit juice and 84 pints of the 80 % pure fruit juice to prepare 140 pints of 70 % pure fruit juice.

We need 84 gallons of 3% butterfat milk and (84 * 3) = 252 gallons of 7% butterfat milk to obtain 336 gallons of 6% butterfat milk.  

Let x = number of gallons of 3% milk

Thus;

336 - x = number of gallons of 7% milk

Therefore;

0.03x + 0.07(336 - x) = 0.06(336)

0.03x + 23.52 - 0.07x = 20.16

-0.04x = -3.36

x = 84 gallons

If the total cost of two umbrellas and one cap is is $20 the total cost for one umbrella and two caps is $16 then the price of one umbrella is $8 and price of one cap is $4.

Given that the total cost of two umbrellas and one cap is is $20 the total cost for one umbrella and two caps is $16.

We have to find the price of one umbrella and one cap.

We have to form equations first to find the price of umbrella and cap.

Equation of two variables look like ax+by=c. It can be a linear equation, quadratic equation or a cubic equation.

let the price of umbrella be x and price of cap is y.

We know that total cost is equal to price of one unit multiplied by the units.

According to question.

2x+y=20----------1

x+2y=16-----------2

Multiply equation 2 by 2 and then subtract resulted equation from equation 1.

2x+y-2x-4y=20-32

-3y=-12

y=-12/-3

y=4

put the value of y in equation 2 to get the value of x.

x+2y=16

x+2*4=16

x+8=16

x=16-8

x=8

Hence the price of one umbrella is $8 and the price of one cap is $4.

Answer:

B: 8.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We will substitute 600 to the y, since our final answer will be a number that makes the value of the stock reach $600.

log (y) = 0.30x + 0.296

Replacing y with 600, the equation becomes:

log (600) = 0.30x + 0.296

2.78 = 0.30x + 0.296

To move all the x and real numbers to different sides, we take 0.296 away from both sides to form:

2.78 - 0.296 = 0.30x

2.484 = 0.30x

x = 8.28

The approximation of 8.28 will be rounded to 8.3.

Then our final answer will be B: 8.3

Based on the profit function given, the level of production that yields the maximum profit is 55 units. The maximum profit is $2,025.

Answer:

7/16

Step-by-step explanation:

(2+5)/(2+3+5+6) = 7/16

The probability of either a yellow or a red ball being drawn if only one is drawn is 7/16.

The probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event to happen. It measures the certainty of the event. The formula for probability is given by; P(E) = Number of Favourable Outcomes/Number of total outcomes.

According to the given question.

Numnber of yellow balls = 2

Number of green balls = 3

Number of red balls = 5

Number of black balls = 6

So,

The total number of balls in a bag = 2+ 3+ 5 + 6 = 16

And,

The sum of yellow and red ball = 2 + 5 = 7

Therefore,

The probability of either a yellow or a red ball being drawn if only one ball is drawn

= [tex]\frac{total\ number\ of \ red \ and \ yellow\ balls }{Total\ number\ of \ balls}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{7}{16}[/tex]

Hence, the probability of either a yellow or a red ball being drawn if only one is drawn is 7/16.

The dimensions and volume of the largest box formed by the 18 in. by 35 in. cardboard are;

The given dimensions of the cardboard are;

Width = 18 inches

Length = 35 inches

Let x represent the side lengths of the cut squares, we have;

Width of the box formed = 18 - 2•x

Length of the box = 35 - 2•x

Height of the box = x

Volume, V, of the box is therefore;

V = (18 - 2•x) × (35 - 2•x) × x = 4•x³ - 106•x² + 630•x

By differentiation, at the extreme locations, we have;

[tex] \frac{d V }{dx} = \frac{d( 4 \cdot \: {x}^{3} - 106 \cdot \: {x}^{2} + 630\cdot \: {x} ) }{dx} = 0[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex] \frac{d V }{dx} =12\cdot \: {x}^{2} - 212\cdot \: {x} + 630 = 0[/tex]

6•x² - 106•x + 315 = 0

[tex]x = \frac{ - 6 \pm \sqrt{106 ^2 - 4 \times 6 \times 315} }{2 \times 6} [/tex]

Therefore;

x ≈ 4.55, or x ≈ -5.55

When x ≈ 4.55, we have;

The number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

From the information given;

The bricklayer needs = 100 pieces of angle

The number of cuts = 54

Length of cuts = 3/ 16'' Inches

a. To determine the number of cuts form a 20% length, we have to multiply the length by the percentage and by the initial number of cuts

= 20/ 100 × 3/ 16 × 54

= 0. 2 × 0. 1875 × 54

= 2. 0

The number of cuts would be 2

b. To determine the number of pieces of 20' angle to have 100 pieces we would divide the initial number of pieces by the angle

= 100/ 20

= 5 pieces

The number of pieces of 20' angle is 5

Thus, the number of cuts from a 20% length is 2 and the number of 20' angle are needed in order to have the 100 pieces is 5

Answer:

Width = 5.5ft, Length = 8ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Rectangle = Length x Width

Let w be the Width of the rectangle.

From the information given from the question,

Length = 2w - 3 (3ft less than twice the width)

Area of Rectangle = [tex](2w-3)w\\=2w^{2} -3w[/tex] = 44

Now we can solve for w to find the dimensions.

[tex]2w^{2} -3w-44=0[/tex] (Quadratic Equations)

We can use the Quadratic formula to find w.

[tex]w=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

Since a = 2, b = -3 and c = -44,

[tex]w=\frac{-(-3)+/-\sqrt{(-3)^{2}-4(2)(-44) } }{2(2)} \\= 5.5 or -4 (reject)[/tex]

We reject negative values here.

Therefore, the width of the Rectangle = 5.5ft

While the length of the rectangle = 2(5.5) - 3 = 11 - 3 = 8ft

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of exterior angles is 360°. We can use this fact to find the number of sides. The perimeter is the total length of all of the congruent sides.

The measure of an exterior angle of the regular polygon is the supplement of the adjacent interior angle:

  exterior angle = 180° -156° = 24°

The total of n of these angles is 360°, so n is ...

  24°×n = 360°

  n = 360°/24° = 15

The polygon has 15 exterior angles, hence 15 sides

The perimeter is the total length of the 15 congruent sides:

  P = 15×(10 cm) = 150 cm

The perimeter of the regular polygon is 150 cm.
