a grocer wants to mix kenyan beans that sell for $8.25 per pound with venezuelan beans that sell for $9.50 per pound to form a 50 pound batch of beans that sells for $9.00 per pound. how many pounds of kenyan beans should go
into the blend?

Answers

Answer 1

Grocer will mix 20 pounds of the kenyan beans $8.25per/lb one and another 30 pounds of the venezuelan beans $9.50per/lb one.

Let's x be the kenyan beans that sell for $8.25 per pound and y be venezuelan beans that sell for $9.50 per pound.

Altogether there are 50 pounds of beans.

The algebraic equation would be x + y = 18.

At $9.00 per pound, he will make 50 * $9.00 = $ 450.0

So, how many of the x and y kinds of coffee should he use to make the $9.00 per pound mixture which will net him $450.0.

The algebraic equation would be 8.25x + 9.50y = 450

We now have two equations

x + y = 50 --(i)

8.25x + 9.50y = 450 --(ii)

Substituting x= 50 - y in the second equation gives us

8.25(50-y) + 9.50y = 450

412.5 - 8.25y + 9.50y = 450

1.25y = 450 - 412.5

1.25y = 37.5

y = 30

Substitute the value of y in equation(i)

x + y = 50

x = 50 - 30

x = 20

Hence, Grocer will mix 20 pounds of the kenyan beans $8.25per/lb one and another 30 pounds of the venezuelan beans $9.50per/lb one.

Eleanor and Luke started on a trip to the mountains with their six-year old car. Their
odometer read 87,236.2 miles at the start of the trip and 87,626.2 miles at the end of the trip.
They used 14.5 gallons of gas on the trip. How many miles per gallon did they achieve with
their car?

Answers

They achieved 26.9 miles per gallon approximately with that car in this trip.

Given that the initial odometer reading is = 87236.2 miles

Final odometer reading after trip is = 87626.2 miles

So the distance of the total trip is = 87626.2-87236.2 = 390 miles

They used 14.5 gallons of gas on the tri[p.

So the mileage is = 390/14.5 = 26.9 miles per gallon approximately.

Their car achieved 26.9 miles per gallon approximately.

Mathematical Operations:  

Mathematical Operations are activities or mathematical processes used to solve given problems. The most used mathematical activities are adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing.

The basic operations and their symbols are given below
Addition (+); Subtraction (-); Division (÷);  and Multiplication (x).  

Here we have

Priya exchanged 250 dollars for 4250 pesos  

[Here we used division and multiplication to solve the problem ]

Then the value of 1 dollar in pesos = [tex]\frac{4250}{250}[/tex] = 17 pesos

⇒ 1 dollar = 17 pesos

⇒ 25 dollars = 25 × 17 = 425 pesos

⇒ 3 dollar = 3 × 17 = 51 pesos

Given the cost of the sweater = 510 pesos  

The cost of the sweater in pesos = [tex]\frac{250}{4250} \times510[/tex] = 30

To solve the system of equation below zach isolated X^2 in the first equation and then substituted into the second equation. What was the resulting equation

{x^2 + y^2 = 25
{x^2/16 - y^2/9 = 1

Answers

The resulting equation of isolation and substitution is  9y⁴-466 y² + 5481 = 0

How to get the resulting equation?

Given:

{x² + y² = 25

{x²/16 - y²/9 = 1

Zach isolated  x² in the first equation, we have:

x² + y² = 25

x² = 25- y²

Zach then substituted the x² into the second equation:

x²/16 - y²/9 = 1                           (put x² = 25- y²)

(25- y²)²/16 - y²/9 = 1                (Expand the bracket)

(625- 50y²+y⁴)/16 - y²/9 = 1      The LCM of 9 and 16 is 144

( 9(625- 50y²+y⁴) - 16 y² ) /144 = 1         Cross multiply

9(625- 50y²+y⁴) - 16 y² = 144

5625 - 450y² + 9y⁴-16 y² = 144

9y⁴-466 y² + 5625 = 144

9y⁴-466 y² + 5625-144 = 0

9y⁴-466 y² + 5481 = 0  

Therefore, the resulting equation is  9y⁴-466 y² + 5481 = 0

Answers

The speeds when converted are 29.648 km/h and 8.24 m/s

How to convert the units of speed?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Speed = 16 knots

Also, from the question, we have

1 nautical mile to be 1853 m

This means that

Speed = 16 * 1853 m per hour

Convert meters to kilometers

So, we have

Speed = 16 * 1.853 km per hour

Evaluate the products

Speed = 29.648 km/h

Also, we have

Speed = 16 * 1853 m per hour

Convert hour to seconds

8. Given that the total distance travelled is 1.4 km, and the
acceleration is 4 m/s² for the first T seconds, find:
a) the value of V
b) the value of T.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for distance travelled:

x= ut + 1/2at^2

x is 1.4km, convert this to m since acceleration is in m, = 1400m

u is initial velocity, in this case assume 0

a is acceleration, = 4m/s^2

t is unkown and what we want to find out

Substitute value into formula,

1400 = 0t + 1/2(4)t^2

1400 = 2t^2

t^2 = 1400/2

t^2 = 700

t = 26.458s

Formula for acceleration:

a = (v-u)/t

at= v-u

Substitute value,

4(26.458) = v - 0

v = 105.832 m/s

Polynomial function with real coefficients.Zeros: 3 and 4iLead coefficient of 1.

For any complex number  [tex]z=a+bi[/tex], the complex conjugate of the number is defined as  [tex]z^*=a-bi[/tex].  

If f(z) is a polynomial with real coefficients, and z₁ is a root of f(z)=0, then its complex conjugate z₁* is also a root of f(z)=0.
