Answer:

B = 87.08 pounds @ $0.32

A = 22.92 pounds @ $0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

cost of beans (A)= $ 0.08/pound

and another beans cost (B) = $ 0.32 /pound

total weight of the pound = 110 pound

selling price of mixture = $ 0.27/pound

cost of each bean = ?                    

A + B = 110                                

A = 110 - B-------(1)                        

0.08 A + 0.32 B = 0.27 x 110

0.08 A + 0.32 B = 29.7                

Putting value of A                    

0.08(110 - B) + 0.32 B = 29.7

8.8 - 0.08 B + 0.32 B = 29.7

0.24 B = 20.9

B = 87.08 pounds @ $0.32

A = 22.92 pounds @ $0.08

Help me plssss <br> its for a math test and im braindead atm
Gwar [14]

Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 + 1/4

To add these fractions, you need a lowest common denominator.  Both 4 and 8 "go into" 8, so the lowest common denominator is 8.

In order to change the denominator 4 to 8, you need to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2.  So, 1/4 becomes 2/8.

Now, the problem is 3/8 + 2/8.  

You can add the numerators, because the denominator is the same for each fraction.

3/8 + 2/8 = 5/8

The graph below is a portion of a complete graph. Which graph below is the complete graph assuming it is an even function?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Option b

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is even if and only if f(-x) = f(x).

This means that there is the same value of y for x_0 and for -x_0

Where x_0 is any point belonging to the function .

Therefore you must select a graph whose ordered pairs are of the form (x_0, y_0) and (-x_0, y_0)

Therefore the correct answer is option b. Assume that each box in the graph equals 1 unit. Then, for x = 2 y = -3 and for x = -2 y = -3. Then it is shown that the function is even.

Grade 11  15            16               10
Grade 12  12              6                11

Probability = number of positive outcomes / number of possible outcomes

Probability that a student in grade 9 is in favor of extending the school day =

number of students in 9 grade in favor / number of students in grade 9

number of students in 9 grade in favor = 5

number of students in 9 grade = 5 + 3 + 9 = 17

Probability = 5 / 17

Answer: 5 / 17
