Answer:

Necesitamos agregar 40 libras del café La Finca

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea x el número de libras de café de La Finca a mezclar.

Entonces, la cantidad total de libras que obtendremos en la mezcla será (x + 80) libras.

Ahora trabajemos con los precios; Tenemos x libras de La Finca a $ 5 por libra, con 80 libras de café a $ 2 por libra para dar una mezcla de (x + 80) a $ 3 Así, sumaremos el precio de La Finca más la otra variante para llegar al costo de la nueva mezcla.

Matemáticamente;

5 (x) + 2 (80) = 3 (x + 80)

5x + 160 = 3x + 240

5x -3x = 240-160

2x = 80

x = 80/2 x = 40

What is the volume of a cube whose sides are each 1 3/4 ft?
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

5.4 (rounded)

Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a cube is length*width*height so here all three are 1 3/4 (same as 1.75) and so you multiply 1.75 * 1.75 * 1.75 and that gives you 5.4 when rounded.

A half-filled cylindrical water tank has a water level of 20 feet high. The tank can hold 6000 cubic feet of water. Find the dia
Anettt [7]

Answer:

d = 13.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Because we are talking about cubic feet of water, we need the formula for the VOLUME of a cylinder.  That formula is

V=\pi r^2h

We will use 3.141592654 for pi; if the tank HALF filled with water is at 20 feet, then the height of the tank is 40 feet, so h = 40; and the volume it can hold in total is 6000 cubic feet.  Filling in then gives us:

6000=(3.141592654)(r^2)(40)

Simplify on the right to get

6000=125.6637061r^2

Divide both sides by 125.6637061 to get that

r^2=47.74648294

Taking the square root of both sides gives you

r = 6.90988299

But the diameter is twice the radius, so multiply that r value by 2 to get that the diameter to the nearest tenth of a foot is 13.8

Gunther invested $10,000 in two mutual funds. One of the funds rose 6% in one year and the other rose 9% in one year. If his inv
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

$7200 in the fund rose 6% n $2800 in the fund rose 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the amount in the fund rose 6%

gain in one year=x*6%=0.06x

total amount is 10000

so amount in the fund rose 9% = 10000-x

gain in one year=(10000-x)*9%=900-0.09x

total gain=0.06x+900-0.09x=900-0.03x

=684

900-684=0.03x

0.03x=216

x=7200

the other fund amount=10000-7200=2800
