Answer:

%P = 8%

the percentage of fat in the mixture is 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The percentage of fat in the mixture is;

%P = total mass of fat in mixture/total mass of mixture × 100%

%P = F/T × 100% ….....1

Mass of fat in mixture is;

She purchases 5 pounds of ground beef which is 15% fat

F1 = 15% of 5 pounds = 0.15×5 pounds

F1 = 0.75 pound

and combines it with 7 pounds of ground turkey which is only 3% fat

F2 = 3% of 7 pounds = 0.03 × 7

F2 = 0.21 pound

Total mass F = F1 + F2

F = 0.75+0.21

F = 0.96 pound

Total mass of mixture T = 5 + 7 pounds

T = 12 pounds.

From equation 1,

%P = F/T × 100%

%P = 0.96/12 × 100%

%P = 0.08×100%

%P = 8%

the percentage of fat in the mixture is 8%

3. List the angles of the triangle in order from smallest to largest.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The list of angles of the triangle in order from smallest to largest will be: A < C < B

Hence, option 'e' is true.

i.e (A,C,B)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in a triangle the greater angle has the longer side opposite to it.

From the given triangle,

Side AC = 7.2 is the longer side. Thus, B is the largest angle as it is opposite to the longer side AC = 7.2.

Then comes the second-longest side AB=4.9. Thus, C is the 2nd largest angle it is opposite to the second-longest side AB=4.9.

Finally comes the shortest side BC = 3.2. Thus, A is the shortest angle as it is opposite to the shortest side BC = 3.2.

Thus, the list of angles of the triangle in order from smallest to largest will be: A < C < B

Hence, option 'e' is true.

i.e (A,C,B)

Find f(2) if f(x) = (x + 1)2.<br><br><br> 1. 9<br> 2. 6<br> 3. 5
kolezko [41]

Answer: f(2) = 6

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we are given the function

f (x) = (x + 1) 2 and we are asked to find f(2). In other words, if we put an "x" into our function, we get a (x + 1) 2 out.

f we put a 2 into the function, we get f(2) =  (2 + 1) 2 out. Now all we have to do is simplify on the right side.

2 + 1 gives us 3 and if we multiply 3 by 2, we get a product of 6.

Therefore, f(2) is 6.

So if you find the 1st term, you should write 1 instead of n
T1 = 6.1 -1
T1= 6-1
T1= 5
Hope it helps!
