A store is having a sale on almonds and jelly beans. For 2 kilograms of almonds and 3 kilograms of jelly beans, the total cost is $11. For 6 kllograms of almonds and 5 kilograms of jelly beans, the total cost is $23. Find the cost for each kilogram of almonds and each kilogram of jelly beans.
Find cost for each kilogram of almonds :?
Ans find the cost for each kilogram of jelly beans :?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of each kg of almonds is $1.75

The cost of each kg of jelly beans is $2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the system of linear equations to solve the question

Assume that the cost of 1 kg of almonds is $x, and the cost of 1 kg of jelly beans is $y

∵ For 2 kilograms of almonds and 3 kilograms of jelly beans,

   the total cost is $11

→ Multiply 2 by x and 3 by y, then equate their sum by 11

2x + 3y = 11 ⇒ (1)

∵ For 6 kilograms of almonds and 5 kilograms of jelly beans, the

   total cost is $23

→ Multiply 6 by x and 5 by y, then equate their sum by 23

6x + 5y = 23 ⇒ (2)

Now we need to solve this system of equations to find the values of x and y

→ Multiply equation (1) by -3 to make the coefficient of x in it equals

  the coefficient of x in equation (2) in values and differences in signs

∵ -3(2x) + -3(3y) = -3(11)

-6x + -9y = -33 ⇒ (3)

→ Add equations (2) and (3) to eliminate x

∵ (6x + - 6x) + (5y - 9y) = (23 + -33)

∴ -4y = -10

→ Divide both side by -4 to find the value of y

∵  [tex]\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{-10}{-4}[/tex]

y = 2.5

→ Substitute the value of y in equation (1) to find x

∵ 2x + 3(2.5) = 11

∴ 2x + 7.5 = 11

→ Subtract 7.5 from both sides

∵ 2x + 7.5 - 7.5 = 11 - 7.5

∴ 2x = 3.5

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of x

∵ [tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{3.5}{2}[/tex]

x = 1.75

∵ x represents the cost of 1 kg of almonds

The cost of each kg of almonds is $1.75

∵ y represents the cost of 1 kg of jelly beans

The cost of each kg of jelly beans is $2.5

The points C, D, E and F all lie on the same line segment, in that order, such that the ratio of CD:DE:EFCD:DE:EF is equal to 3:2:1.3:2:1. If CF=42,CF=42, find DF.DF.

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The required length of the DF on the line segment is 21 units.

Given that,
The points C, D, E, and F all lie on the same line segment, in that order, such that the ratio of CD:DE: EF is equal to 3:2:1, If CF=42,
To determine the length of the segment DF

What is the Ratio?

The ratio can be defined as the proportion of the fraction of one quantity towards others. e.g.- water in milk.

Here,
Total of the ratios
CF = 3x + 2x + 1x
CF = 6x
6x = 42
x = 7
Now,

DF = DE + DF
DF = 2x + 1x
DF = 2 * 7 + 7
DF = 14 + 7
DF = 21

Thus, the required length of the DF on the line segment is 21 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Put the value of x in the expression and see what the angle measure is.

  m∠A = 4x +12 = 4(15) +12 = 60 +12 = 72

The angle is less than 90°, so is acute.

DO you know the answer ? help me out if you can

Answers

Answer:

The answer would be B. Benefit would decrease by $7,020 annually

Step-by-step explanation:

One way you can find a percentage of any number is to take the percentage and move the decimals to the left twice, 13% into 0.13. With this decimal you would multiply it by the main number you want the percentage from, $54,000. 0.13 × 54,000 would give you a product of 7,020 thus your answer.

This isn't completely necessary but if you would like to check your answer you could do this process backwards, to do such you would take your answer you received, 7,020, and divide that by your main number, 54,000. The quotient would be your percentage as a decimal 7,020 ÷ 54,000 = 0.13. Thus meaning your answer is correct.

lim x>-1 x^2-x-2/x+1

Answers

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

If we directly evaluate the function at -1, we get 0/0, meaning we may still have a limit to find.

In this case, factoring the polynomial at the top would be helpful.

The polynomial can be factored to (x+1)(x-2), so the function would now turn out to be (x+1)(x-2)/(x+1)

The (x+1) cancel out, leaving you with (x-2), which you can directly evaluate by plugging in x as -1:

-1-2 = -3

Quick disclaimer: the function is still undefined at -1; it's just that the function gets closer and closer to -3 as you approach -1.

I hope this helped you.

Is x=-4 a solution to the equation —3z + 10 = 5?

Answers

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note that there is no variable x inside the equation. Therefore, there is nothing for the -4 to plug into.

However, if you meant to put the same variable, it still will not work.

Plugging in -4 for z (if you meant z = -4), would give you the following:

Assuming that z = -4

-3(-4) + 10 = 5

-12 + 10 = 5

-2 ≠ 5.

Therefore, even if you did mean to put the same variable, it will still not be correct.

~

For the given equation, there is no variable x but z is a variable in the linear equation. Since x is not a variable of the equation, we can't put the value given.

But if we plug the value of -4 in place of z:

➝ -3(-4) + 10

➝ 12 + 10

➝ 22 which is not equals to 5.

Hence, this equation is not satisfying for the value of variable given that is 4. Thus, -4 is not a solution to the given equation[tex].[/tex]
