A Christian relief agency is sending two types of medical supply boxes overseas. The original plan is to send 3 boxes of medicines and 7 boxes of non-medicine supplies worth a total value of $9,000. Shortly before the supplies are shipped, the agency receiving the supplies communicates that they only need 2 boxes of medicines. If a box of non-medicine supplies is worth $300, how many boxes of non-medicine supplies can be sent if only 2 boxes of medicine are included in the shipment

Answers

Answer 1

The number of non-medicine that can be sent is approximately 14 boxes.

From the given statement we can form the following equation:

let the worth of a boxes of medicine = x

3x + 7(300) = 9,000

solve for x:

3x + 7(300) = 9,000

3x + 2,100 = 9,000

3x = 9,000 - 2,100

3x = 6,900

[tex]x = \frac{6,900}{3} = 2,300[/tex]

A box of medicine worth $2,300

If only 2 boxes of medicine will be sent, then the number of boxes of non-medicine is calculated as;

let the worth of all the boxes of non-medicine = y

2(2,300) + y = 9,000

4600 + y = 9,000

y = 9,000 - 4600

y = 4,400

Now we solve for the number of boxes of non-medicine as follows:

n(300) = 4,400

[tex]n= \frac{4400}{300} = 14.67 \approx 14 \ boxes \ of \ non-medicine \ can \ be \ sent[/tex]

Thus, the number of non-medicine that can be sent is approximately 14 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

use the Bodmas method

=3×9-5+20×2

=62

The value of the expression {[3 x (3+6) - 5] + 20 x 2 will be 62. so option A is correct.

How to evaluate a given mathematical expression with variables if values of the variables are known?

We can simply replace those variables with the value you know of them and then operate on those values to get a final value. This is the result of that expression at those values of the considered variables.

So, use the Bodmas method

=[3 × 9 - 5 ]+ 20 × 2

= [27 -5] + 40

= 22 + 40

=62

Therefore,  the value of the expression {[3 x (3+6) - 5] + 20 x 2 will be 62. so option A is correct.

Answer: Choice B

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{65}}<-4, 7>[/tex]

===============================================================

Explanation:

Consider a right triangle with legs a = 4 and b = 7. Through the pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse is

c = sqrt(a^2+b^2) = sqrt(4^2+7^2) = sqrt(65)

This represents the length of the vector <-4,7>

Dividing each component by the length will normalize the vector. This is the same as multiplying by [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{65}}[/tex] which is what choice B shows. The phrasing "normalize the vector" means "make the vector to be of length 1". A common application of normalizing vectors will come up in computer graphics.

The original vector and the vector mentioned in choice B point in the same direction. The only thing that has changed is the length from sqrt(65) to 1.

Need step by step answers

Answers

Answer:

Step by step answers are key,... and they're below,... ;->

Step-by-step explanation:

This is your equation:

[tex]5 \frac{6}{30} + 1\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Make both fractions improper fractions (this makes them easier to work with) All you did to convert your two mixed number into improper fractions is:

Multiply the denominator (the bottom number in a fraction in this case 30) by the number not in the fraction (5), 30x5=150 and then add the product (150) to the numerator (the top number in a fraction (which in this case is 6))

[tex]5\frac{6}{30} = \frac{156}{30}[/tex]

Do the same to the other mixed number (turning it into a improper fraction), Multiply the 4x1=4, add the product to the numerator 4+3=7 and then you have your second improper fraction

[tex]1\frac{3}{4} = \frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Your new equation:

[tex]\frac{156}{30} +\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Now you need to get both denominators the same so you can add the together,... the easiest way to do this is to multiply the two denominators together,... 30x4=120

[tex]\frac{x}{120} + \frac{x}{120}[/tex]

But how do we know what the numerator are to be? What you have to do is the following,... you had to multiply 30 by 4 to get to 120, so you have to multiply the 156 by 4 to make an equivilant fraction,... 156x4=624

[tex]5\frac{6}{30} = \frac{156}{30} = \frac{624}{120}[/tex]

Like wise you had to multiply 4 by 30 to get to 120 so you have to multiply the numerator by 30 to make the fraction hold the same value,... 7x30=210

[tex]1\frac{3}{4} = \frac{7}{4} =\frac{210}{120}[/tex]

Now all that is left is to add:

[tex]\frac{624}{120} +\frac{210}{120} =\frac{834}{120}[/tex]

The answer is 835/120 simplify is or 6 19/20 or 6.95
