Three ounces of cinnamon cost 2.40. If there are 16 ounces in 1 pound, how much does cinnamon cost per pound?

Mathematics

To find how much cinnamon per pound you first divide the $2.40 by the 3 oz to find how much per ounce...so $2.40/3 = 80 cents. Then u multiply that by the 16 oz to get the amount for 1 pound...so .80x16= $12.80 per pound.
Hope it helps!

Algebra 2 help. Solving equations containing two radicals
Marysya12 [62]

These are 3 questions and 3 answers.

Question 1.

Answer: bot equations have the same potential solutions, but equation A may have extraneous solutions

Explanation:

1) Equation A

\sqrt{x^2+3x-6}=\sqrt{x+2}\\ \\  x^2+3x-6=x+2\\ \\  x^2+2x-8=0\\ \\  (x+4)(x-2)=0\\ \\  x=-4 ; x =2

Replace x = -4 in the right side of the equation:

\sqrt{x+2} =\sqrt{-4+2} =\sqrt{-2}

Which is not defined, so this is a extraneous solution.

2) Equation B.

Since it is a cube root, it is defined for any (negative, zero, and positive) values of x.

Question 2.

Answer: cubing both sides once.

Explanation:

\sqrt[3]{5x-2} -\sqrt[3]{4x} =0\\ \\  \sqrt[3]{5x-2} =\sqrt[3]{4x}\\  \\  (\sqrt[3]{5x-2} )^3=(\sqrt[3]{4x})^3\\  \\  5x-2=4x\\ \\  5x-4x=2\\ \\  x=2

3) Question 3.

Answer: c - 2 = 25 + c + 10√c

Explanation:

\sqrt{c-2} -\sqrt{c} =5\\ \\ \\  \sqrt{c-2} =\sqrt{c} +5\\ \\  (\sqrt{c-2})^{2}  =(\sqrt{c}+5)^2\\  \\  c-2=c+10\sqrt{c} +25\\ \\  c-2=25+c+10\sqrt{c}

Nelly runs a 10 mile race in 88 minutes. At this rate, how long would it take him to run a 6.5 mile race?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

A. 57.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Nelly runs =  10-mile race in 88 minutes. At the same rate but 6.5-mile race

To find: How long it would take him to run a 6.5-mile race

Solution: To calculate the how long;

<u>How to calculate running pace</u>

  • Divide your run time by your distance
  • If you ran 3 miles in 30 minutes:  30 min ÷ 3 mi = 10 minutes per mile pace

<u>How to calculate run distance</u>

  • Divide your running time by your pace
  • If your pace is 8 minutes per mile and you ran for 32 minutes:  32 min ÷ 8 min per mi = 4 miles

<u>How to calculate run time</u>

  • Multiply your pace by your distance
  • If your pace is 9.5 minutes per mile and you ran 3 miles:  9.5 min per mi × 3 mi = 28.5 minutes = 28 minutes, 30 seconds

<u>How to calculate running speed</u>

  • Divide your run distance by your run time
  • If you ran 2.5 miles and you ran for 20 minutes: 2.5 mi ÷ 20 min = 0.125 miles per minute

A man purchased a car selling for RM12,750 by making instalment payments. If he was charged 4% based on the reducing balance and
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

48 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of car = RM12,750

interest charged = 4% = 0.04

total interest paid = RM1,041.25

Now,

Using the Constant Ratio formula

r = \frac{24\times\textup{i}}{\textup{P(n+1)}}

here,

i is the interest paid

P is the principle

n is the number of monthly installments

r is the interest rate

on substituting the respective values, we get

0.04 = \frac{24\times\textup{1041.25}}{\textup{12,750(n+1)}}

or

n + 1 = 49

or

n = 48 months

Saved Suppose that the population of deer in a state is 1,500 and is growing 2% each year. Predict the population after 4 years.
mestny [16]
<h2>Steps</h2>

So for this, we will be creating an equation using the exponential formula - which is y=ab^x (a = initial value, b = growth/decay).

Firstly, we know that the original population of the deer is 1,500 so that will be our a value.

Next, we know that the population is growing by 2% annually. With this, we will <em>add</em> 1 and 0.02 (2% in decimal form) since the population is <em>increasing</em>.

  • 1 + 0.02 = 1.02

1.02 will be our b variable. Now putting it together, our equation is: y=1500(1.02)^x

Now that we have our equation set up, plug 4 into the x variable and solve for y as such (Remember to not round until the very end):

y=1500*(1.02)^4\\y\approx 1624

<h2>Answer</h2>

<u>After 4 years, the deer population will be 1,624.</u>
