The Coffee Counter charges ​$8.00 per pound for Kenyan French Roast coffee and ​$10.00 per pound for Sumatran coffee. How much of each type should be used to make an 18 pound blend that sells for ​$9.00 per​ pound?
The Coffee Counter should mix ___ pounds of Kenyan Roast coffee and ___ pounds of Sumatran coffee to make 18 pounds of a blend that sells for ​$9.00 per pound.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 9

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Let :

Kenyan French roast coffee = x

Cost per x = $8

Sumatran Coffee = y

Cost per y = $10

x + y = 18 - - - - (1)

8x + 10y = 9 * 18 ;

8x + 10y = 162 - - - - (2)

From (1):

x = 18 - y

Put x = 18 - y in (2)

8(18 - y) + 10y = 162

144 - 8y + 10y = 162

2y = 162 - 144

2y = 18

y = 9

x = 18 - y

x = 18 - 9

x = 9

Answer:

  B, D, E, A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

The main idea here is to use your English comprehension skill to determine the meaning of the phrase, then use your math understanding to write it in symbols. Turning off your brain at the sight of a "word problem" will not be productive.

The wording "some number" or "a variable" or "unknown value" all refer to a variable, typically represented by a single letter. Letters commonly use are {a, b, c, x, y, z}, but variables are not restricted to that set (nor to single letters, nor lower case letters).

In most cases, the math expression is a direct translation of the English expression using the usual math symbols. Values are generally increased by addition, decreased by subtraction, squared using an exponent of 2. A product is the result of multiplication, and a quotient is the result of division.

In the accompanying diagram, ABC is isosceles, BC is extended to D. AB = AC. and M

Answers

Answer:

m∠ACD = 130

Step-by-step explanation:

If ABC is an isosceles, AB = AC and m∠A = 80°, then m∠B and m∠C is equal to 50°.

This is because angles in a triangle adds up to 180°.

180° - 80° = 100°/2 = 50°

∴ m∠ACD = 130°, this is because the interior opposite angles in a triangle is supplementary to the opposite exterior angle:

50° + 80° = 130°

Or

Angles on a straight line adds up to 180°.

180° - 50° = 130°

the perimeter of a rectangular painting is 304 CM. If the width of the paint is 63 cm what is the length​

Answers

Answer:

The PERIMETER P is the distance around the rectangle.

Let's call the width of the rectangle W and the length of the rectangle L.

As you go around the edge there two equal lengths and two equal widths.

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P=2*L+2*W.

P=2L%2B2W

Substitute 290 for P and 62 for the width.

290=2L%2B2%2862%29

Solve for L.

290=2L%2B2%2862%29

290=2L%2B124

290-124=2L

2L=166

L=83

The equation L=83 means that the length is 83 cm.

CHECK your work.

2(62)+2(83) = 124+166 = 290cm.

The length of the rectangle is 83cm.

An angle of depression is measured from the horizon downwards and an angle of elevation is measured from the horizon upwards.

When solving for the sides or angles of a right triangle you can use trigonometry. The sine of an angle is found by the ratio of the opposite side and the hypotenuse. The cosine of an angle is found by the ratio of the adjacent side and the hypotenuse. The tangent of an angle is found by the ratio of the opposite side and the adjacent side.

The opposite side is always the leg opposite the angle that you are using. The adjacent side is the leg that forms one of the sides of the angle you are talking about and the hypotenuse is always across from the right angle.

If you know two lengths you can find the third leg length by using the Pythagorean Theorem.

What’s the distance ?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem asks one to find the length of the given line. Another way to think about this problem is to believe that the problem asks one to find the distance from one point to another. The endpoints on this line are the following,

[tex](4,2), (5, 5)[/tex]

The formula to find the distance between two points on a 2-dimensional coordinate plane is as follows,

[tex]D=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2*(y_1-y_2)^2}[/tex]

Substitute the endpoints of the line into the formula and solve for the distance between the points,

[tex]D=\sqrt{(4-5)^2*(2-5)^2}[/tex]

Simplify, solve for the distance between the two points,

[tex]D=\sqrt{(4-5)^2*(2-5)^2}[/tex]

[tex]D=\sqrt{(-1)^2*(-3)^2}\\\\D=\sqrt{1*9}\\\\D=\sqrt{9}\\\\D=3[/tex]

Part B: Find the elements you described in Part A , explain your work.

Part C: Verify if Point L is on the perpendicular bisector of JK. Justify your conclusion.

Answers

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

For point a:

Bisector Theorem: When a point has been on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, the perpendicular bisector is equivalent towards the segment endpoints. They understand that conversation also valid in addition to the Theorem including its perpendicular bisector. So the distance b/w L and J, L, and k must be found. Examine it then.

For point b:

Calculating the distance among two point:

[tex]d_0 = \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2 +(y_1-y_2)^2}[/tex]

Calculating the distance among J and L

[tex]d_1 = \sqrt{((-9)-(-7))^2 + (5)-(-8))^2}[/tex]

    [tex]=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(13)^2}\\\\ = \sqrt{173}[/tex]

Calculating the distance among  K and L  

[tex]d_2 = \sqrt{((-9)-(1))^2 + (5)-(4))^2}[/tex]

    [tex]=\sqrt{(10)^2+(1)^2}\\ = \sqrt{101}[/tex]

For point c:

As these two distances are not equal, L doesn't really lie on the JK bisector.
