The amount in gallons of each milk containing 9% butterfat and milk containing 4% butterfat which must be used to obtain the desired 365 gallons are;

  • 219 gallons of 9% fat.
  • 146 gallons of 7% fat.

<h3>What quantity of each type of milk is required for the desired 365 gallon?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the quantity of each type of milk required to arrive at the targeted fat content and quantity of milk are to be determined.

Let x = quantity of 9% fat milk and

Let y = quantity of 4% fat milk

Therefore, by mass balance; we have;

x + y = 365.

Where; y = 365 - x.

Also, by fat balance; we have;

(9% × x) + (4% × y) = (7% × 365)

9x + 4y = 2555

Therefore, the two equations to be solved simultaneously by substituting y from the first equation into the second equation as follows;

9x + 4 (365 - x) = 2555

5x = 1095

x = 1095/5

x = 219 gallons.

Also, y = 365 - 219 = 146 gallons.

Which expression gives the distance between the points
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

C. sqrt((-3-6)² + (4+2)²)

Step-by-step explanation:

as we are using Pythagoras and asking for the distance as a side length (actually the Hypotenuse, the side opposite of the 90 degree angle) in a right-angled triangle, only an expression of a square root of a sum of squares can be right.

so, A and B are automatically out without even further analysis.

for the distance between 2 points on a coordination grid we build the mentioned right-angled triangle with the difference in x-direction as one side (e.g. "a"), the difference in y-direction as a second side (e.g. "b").

and the direct distance is then the Hypotenuse "c".

you remember Pythagoras :

c² = a² + b²

and therefore

c = sqrt(a² + b²)

in our example "a" is the difference between the 2 x-values.

a = (-3 - 6)

and "b" is the difference between the 2 y-values.

b = (4 - -2) = (4 + 2)

since we have to square them for the formula, the direction of what is subtracted from what is irrelevant, as the square of a negative value is also positive.

c = sqrt((-3 - 6)² + (4 + 2)²)

and that is answer option C

Answer this question please.
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability both spiners land on red: 0,5*0,6=0,3 (0,5 is A spine lands on red and 0,6 is B spiner lands on red)

The number of both spiners land on red is 84.

So we have:

X——>100%

84——->30%

X=8400/30

X=280

The total number of all spines A and B for onse.

The probability to both spiners land on blue is:

0,5*0,4=0,2 (0,5 is probabiliti to A lands on blue, 0,4 is B lands on blue)

The number of both spiners land on blue is:

280*0,2=56
