I stores having a sale on jellybeans in trail mix. For 2 pounds of jellybeans and 12 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $23. For 5 pounds of jellybeans and 3 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $17. Find the cost for each pound of jellybeans and each pound of trail mix

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The cost of each pound of jellybean is $2.5

The cost for each pound of trail mix is $1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost for each pound of jellybeans be x.

Let the cost of each pound of trail mix be y.

Based on the information given, we can form an equation which will be:

For 2 pounds of jellybeans and 12 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $23. This will be:

2x + 12y = 23 ...... i

For 5 pounds of jellybeans and 3 pounds of trail mix, the total cost is $17. This will be:

5x + 3y = 17...... ii

2x + 12y = 23 ...... i

5x + 3y = 17...... ii

Multiply equation i by 5

Multiply equation ii by 2

10x + 60y = 115 ...... iii

10x + 6y = 34 ..... iv

Subtract iv from iii

54y = 81

y = 81/54

y = 1.5

The cost for each pound of trail mix is $1.5

From equation i

2x + 12y = 23

2x + 12(1.5) = 23

2x + 18 = 23

2x = 23 - 18

2x = 5

x = 5/2 = 2.5

The cost of each pound of jellybean is $2.5

Soda is sold in aluminum cans that measure 7 inches in height and 2.8 inches in diameter.
How many cubic inches of soda are contained in a full can?

Answers

Answer:

Volume of soda in soda can = 43.1 inches³ (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of soda can = 7 inches

Diameter of soda can = 2.8 inches

Find:

Volume of soda in soda can

Computation:

Radius of soda can = Diameter of soda can / 2

Radius of soda can = 2.8 / 2

Radius of soda can = 1.4 inches

Volume of soda in soda can = Volume of cylinder

Volume of soda in soda can = πr²h

Volume of soda in soda can = (3.14)(1.4)²(7)

Volume of soda in soda can = (3.14)(1.96)(7)

Volume of soda in soda can = 43.1 inches³ (Approx.)

If Volume of a Prism=36 m3

, then what is the volume of a pyramid?​

Answers

Answer!12 m³Solution!

V(volume of pyramid) = ⅓ x V(volume of prism)

V(pyramid) = 1 x 36 m³/3V(pyramid) = 12 m³

___________________________

And, to get the volume of prism, simply multiply the volume of pyramid by 3.

if volume of pyramid=12m³, then volume of prism is 36 .

Solution;:

V(volime of prism) = V(volume of pyramid) x 3

V(prism) = 12m³ x 3V(prism) = 36 m³

___________________________

Hence, there are 3 pyramids, and each pyramid has a volume of 12m³, these can exactly fit inside a prism with a volume of 36m³.

[tex]d \to[/tex] distance between Hank and Mirror

[tex]D \to[/tex] distance between tree and Mirror

From the question, we have:

Make H the subject

[tex]H = \frac{h}{d} * D[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]H = \frac{172* 475cm}{190}[/tex]

[tex]H = \frac{81700cm}{190}[/tex]

[tex]H = 430 cm[/tex]

Consider the function f(x) = 2^x
and function g
g(x) = f(x) + 6
How will the graph of function g differ from the graph of function ?

Answers

Answer:

The graph of function g is the graph of function f shifted 6 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plug in the values, [tex]g(x) = 2^{x} + 6[/tex]. If the 6 was added or subtracted from the x in the exponent, it would shift horizontally (left and right), but adding 6 to f(x) separately moves the graph vertically (up and down). Hope this helps.

In the year 2000, the average car had a fuel economy of 22.6 MPG. You are curious as to whether the average in the present day is less than the historical value. What are the appropriate hypotheses for this test

Answers

Answer:

The appropriate null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: \mu = 22.6[/tex]

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_1: \mu < 22.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The average car had a fuel economy of 22.6 MPG. Test if the current average is less than this.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the current average is still of 22.6 MPG, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 22.6[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the current mean has decreased, that is, if it is less than 22.6 MPG. So

[tex]H_1: \mu < 22.6[/tex]
