Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let j represents water in one glass jag while p' represents the water in one plastic container,

According to the question,

j-p' = 6p+8 --------(1)

And, 2j+2p'=56p --------(2)

2 × equation (1)

2 j - 2 p' = 12p + 16 ---------(3)

Equation (2) + equation (3)

We get, 4 j = 12 p + 72

⇒ j = 3 p + 18

Putting this value in equation (1),

We get, 3p+18-p'=6p+8

p' = -3p + 10 = 10 - 3p

Thus, water in a plastic container, p'= 10 - 3 p

b) If p=3

Water in a glass container = 3 × 3 + 18 = 27 quarts

Water in a plastic container = 10 - 3 × 3 = 1 quarts

3. Formulate 900 lbs of a 35% CP ration using Soybean Meal (46% CP) and Oats (12% CP). How many pounds of soybean meal will be u
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Soybean Meal has 46% CP and Oats has 12% CP.

The total amount of ration is 900 lbs of 35% CP.

Let x pounds of Soyabean has been used, so,

the amount of Oats = 900-x lbs.

The CP amount in 900 lbs mixture will be equal to the sum of CP amounts in x lbs Soyabean and 900-x lbs Oats, i.e

35% of 900 = 46% of x + 12% of (900-x)

\Rightarrow \frac{35}{100}\times 900=\frac{46}{100}\times x+\frac{12}{100}\times (900-x)

\Rightarrow  35\times 900 = 46x + 12\times 900 - 12 x

\Rightarrow 34x= 900(35-12)

\Rightarrow x = (900\times 23)/34

\Rightarrow x = 608.82 lbs.

So, the amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Marigold Industries collected $104,000 from customers in 2019. Of the amount collected, $24,400 was for services performed in 20
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

\text{Net accrual income}=\$31,600

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Marigold Industries collected $104,000 from customers in 2019. Of the amount collected, $24,400 was for services performed in 2018. In addition, Marigold performed services worth $39,000 in 2019, which will not be collected until 2020.

Let us find revenue earned in 2019 by subtracting revenue earned from 2018 and adding revenue earned in 2019 to total revenue as:

\text{Revenue in 2019}=\$104,000-\$24,400+\$39,000

\text{Revenue in 2019}=\$118,600

Marigold Industries also paid $73,900 for expenses in 2019. Of the amount paid, $29,100 was for expenses incurred on account in 2018. In addition, Marigold incurred $42,200 of expenses in 2019, which will not be paid until 2020.

Now, we will find expenses in 2019 by subtracting expenses in 2018 and adding expenses in 2019 to total expenses as:

\text{Expenses in 2019}=\$73,900-\$29,100+\$42,200

\text{Expenses in 2019}=\$87,000

To find accrual net-income, we will subtract$87,000 from $118,600 as:

\text{Net accrual income}=\$118,600-\$87,000

\text{Net accrual income}=\$31,600

Therefore, the net accrual income for 2019 would be $31,600.

Find the midpoint of the line segment defined by the points: (5, 4) and (−2, 1) (2.5, 1.5) (3.5, 2.5) (1.5, 2.5) (3.5, 1.5)
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf (1.5 , 2.5)}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint is the point that bisects a line segment or divides it into 2 equal halves. The formula is essentially finding the average of the 2 points.

(\frac {x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac {y_1+ y_2}{2})

In this formula, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the 2 endpoints of the line segment. For this problem, these are (5,4 ) and (-2, 1).

  • x₁= 5
  • y₁= 4
  • x₂= -2
  • y₂= 1

Substitute these values into the formula.

( \frac {5+ -2}{2}, \frac {4+1}{2})

Solve the numerators.

  • 5+ -2 = 5-2 = 3
  • 4+1 = 5

( \frac {3}{2}, \frac{5}{2})

Convert the fractions to decimals.

(1.5, 2.5)

The midpoint of the line segment is (1.5 , 2.5)
