Keiko's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee cost Keiko $4.15 per pound, and type B coffee costs $5.25 per pound. This month's blend used four times as many pounds of type B coffee as type A, for a total cost of $980.85. How many pounds of type A coffee were used?

Answers

Answer:

39 pounds of type A coffee were used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost of type A coffee is $4.15 per pound and cost of type B coffee is $5.25 per pound. Also, blend used four times as many pounds of type B coffee as type A.

To find: How many pounds of type A coffee were used.

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the number of pounds of type A coffee and [tex]y[/tex] be the number of pounds of type B coffee.

Then, according to question,

[tex]4.15x+5.25y=980.85[/tex] and [tex]y=4x[/tex]

Substituting [tex]y=4x[/tex] in [tex]4.15x+5.25y=980.85[/tex], we get

[tex]4.15x+5.25(4x)=980.85[/tex]

⇒[tex]4.15x+21x=980.85[/tex]

⇒[tex]25.15x=980.85[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=\frac{980.85}{25.15}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=39[/tex]

Therefore, 39 pounds of type A coffee were used.

Roxie is picking out some movies to rent, and she is primarily interested in horror films and foreign films. She has narrowed down her selections to 20 horror films and 8 foreign films. How many different combinations of 3 movies can she rent if she wants at least two horror films?

Answers

Answer:

She has 2,660 combinations

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the number of different combinations of 3 movies that can be rented

The condition is at least two horror movies

What this means is that she can select 2 or 3 horror movies

if two horror movies, then 1 foreign film

The combination is as follows;

20 C 2 * 8 C 1

= 190 * 8 = 1,520

If she is selecting 3 horror movies, then no foreign film will be selected

Number of ways this can be done is;

20 C 3 = 1,140

So the

number of different combinations would be;

1,140 + 1,520 = 2.660

The amount of time six randomly selected volleyball players play during a game.
Is it: Discrete or Continuous

Answers

Answer: continuous random variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

A discrete random variable is defined as a random variable which consists of countable number. Examples include numbers of shoes, number of sales etc.

A continuous random variable is a random variable whereby the data can take several values. It is a random variable that takes time into consideration.

Therefore, the amount of time six randomly selected volleyball players play during a game will be a continuous random variable since time so involved.

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that it is not a function because there are two different y-values for a single x-value.

Hence, option D is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a function is a relation where each input or x-value of the X set has a unique y-value or output of the Y set.

In other words, we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

From the graph, we can determine the table such as:

x            y

-2           -5

-1            3  

1             -2  

3            0  

4            4

4            -2

It is clear that the values of x = 4, is repeated twice.

In other words, the input value x = 4 is duplicated.

We know that we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

Therefore, we conclude that it is not a function because there are two different y-values for a single x-value.

Hence, option D is true.

Two boats traveling the same direction leave a harbor at noon. After 3 hr they are 60 miles apart, if one boat travels twice as fast as the other find the average rate of each boat

Answers

Answer: The boat 1 moves with a speed of 40mi/h, and boat 2 moves with a speed of 20mi/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know the relation:

Distance = Speed*Time.

We can define the average rate of the boats as the average speed of the boats.

Now, we know that two boats travel in the same direction, let's define:

S₁ = speed of boat 1.

S₂ = speed of boat 2.

We know that one travels twice as fast as the other, then we can write:

S₁ = 2*S₂

We also know that after 3 hours of travel, they are 60mi apart, then if the slower one travelled a distance D in 3 hours, then:

S₂*3h = D

And the faster one will travel D + 60mi

S₁*3h = (D + 60mi)

Then we have the equations:

S₂*3h = D

S₁*3h = (D + 60mi)

We can replace S₁ by 2*S₂ to get:

S₂*3h = D

(2*S₂)*3h = (D + 60mi)

Now we have isolated D in the above equation, we can just replace it in the second equation to get:

(2*S₂)*3h = (S₂*3h + 60mi)

Now we can solve this for S₂

S₂*6h = S₂*3h + 60mi

S₂*6h - S₂*3h = 60mi

S₂*3h = 60mi

S₂ = 60mi/3h = 20mi/h

The speed of boat 2 is 20mi/h

And we knew that:

S₁ = 2*S₂

then:

S₁ = 2*(20mi/h) = 40mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the expression: [tex]2\frac{3}{5}\div \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

We need to divide both the terms.

Solving:

[tex]2\frac{3}{5}\div \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Now, multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator

[tex]\frac{39}{10}[/tex]

Now, we will convert into mixed fraction

[tex]3\frac{9}{10}[/tex]

The ratio of men to women working for a company is 5 to 8. If there are 232 women working for the company, what is the total number of employees?

Answers

Answer:

The total number of employees is 377.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You divide total number of women (232) by the ratio of women. (8)

232/8 =29

2. You take 29 and multiply it by the amount of men in the ratio. (5)

29*5=145

3. Finally you just add the total amount of men (145) and the total amount of women. (232)

232+145=377

I hope this helps!

I tried to explain to the best of my ability.

Answer: 377 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of men to women can be represented as [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] where the numerator represents how many men are in the company, and the denominator represents how many women are in the company. Given that there are 232 women in the company, we can replace denominator with 232, and then cross multiply.

[tex]\frac{5}{8}= \frac{x}{232}[/tex]    After cross multiplying, the expression left would be 8x = 1160. To get the final answer, we would only need to simplify this. It would give us a total of 145, which is how many men work in the company.

Lastly, add the the number or men and women working in the company, and that would be the total people that work in the company

Find the approximate area of the shaded region below, consisting of a right triangle with a circle cut out of it.

Use 3.14 as an approximation for π .

Answers

Answer:

1,254 sqaure ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the radius of the circle, 202=10, to find the area of the circle: A=πr2=π(10)2=π⋅100≈3.14⋅100=314square meters. The area of the triangle is: A=12b⋅h=12⋅56⋅56=12⋅3,136=1,568 The area of the shaded region equals the area of the triangle minus the area of the circle. This is approximately 1,568-314=1,254 square meters.

The area of the shaded region is 1,254 square ft, consisting of a right triangle with a circle cut out of it.

What is the area of the circle?

The area of the circle is equal to the product of the square of the radius of the circle and pi.

A = πr²

where 'r' is the radius of the circle

Use the radius of the circle, 20/2 =10, to find the area of the circle:

A = πr²= π(10)² = π⋅100 ≈ 3.14⋅100 = 314 square meters.

The area of the triangle is:

A=12b⋅h = 12⋅56⋅56 = 12⋅3,136 = 1,568

The area of the shaded region equals the area of the triangle and subtracts the area of the circle.

This is approximately 1,568 - 314 = 1,254 square meters.

Hence, the correct answer would be an option (B).

Which of the following is a solution to the system of two equations 4x + y = 51 and 2x – 6y = 6?

Answers

Answer:

The solution to the system of equations given is:

y = 3x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must see our two equations given:

4x + y = 512x – 6y = 6

We can use the reduction method, with this, we must eliminate a variable, in this case, de x variable, this can do multiply the equation 2 by (-2) and add the two equations:

(2x – 6y = 6)*(-2) = (-4x+12y = -12)

     3. -4x+12y = -12

Now, we operate the equations 1 and 3:

(4x + y = 51) + (-4x+12y = -12) = (13y = 39) "The variable x dissapears because   4x - 4x = 0"

     4. 13y = 39

We solve the equation 4 and obtain the value for "y":

13y = 39y = 39/13y = 3

With the value of "y," we can replace this value in equation 1 or 2 to obtain the value of "x," in this case, we're gonna use the equation 1:

4x + y = 514x + 3 = 514x = 51 - 34x = 48x = 48/4x = 12

In this form, we know the solution to the system of two equations is: x = 12 and y = 3.

The equation of line t is y = -2x + 9. Perpendicular to line t is line u, which passes through
the point (-10, 4). What is the equation of line u?
Write the equation in slope-intercept form. Write the numbers in the equation as proper
fractions, improper fractions, or integers.

Answers

Answer:

Equation of line u in slope-intercept form is: [tex]\mathbf{y=\frac{1}{2}x+9 }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line t : y = -2x + 9.

We need to find equation of line u, which is perpendicular to line t and passes through point (-10,4)

The equation must be in slope-intercept form.

The general equation of slope-intercept form is: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is slope and b is y-intercept

Finding Slope:

If two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are opposite i.e [tex]m=-\frac{1}{m}[/tex]

Slope of line t: y=-2x+9 we get m =-2 (Comparing with general form y=mx+b, we get m =-2)

Slope of line u: [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

So, we get Slope of line u: m= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Finding y-intercept:

Using slope m= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and point(-10,4) we can find y-intercept

[tex]y=mx+b\\4=\frac{1}{2}(-10)+b\\4=-5+b\\b=4+5\\b=9[/tex]

Equation of line u:

So, equation of line u, having slope m= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and y-intercept b=9, we get:

[tex]y=mx+b\\y=\frac{1}{2}x+9[/tex]

So, Equation of line u in slope-intercept form is: [tex]\mathbf{y=\frac{1}{2}x+9 }[/tex]

Can anyone solve this? And I’d appreciate if you explain how to do it.
