To determine price per lb, divide dollar amount by lbs.
- Company A sells 2 1/2lbs (2.5lbs) for $32.50
So, Company A's price / lb = ($32.50/2.5lbs) = $13.00/lb

- Company B sells 2 3/4lbs (2.75lbs) for $35.00
And, Company B's price / lb = ($35.00/2.75lbs) = $12.73/lb

Therefore, Company B is offering the lowest price/lb at $12.73/lb.

In a fruit cocktail, for every 15 ml of orange juice you need 5 ml of apple juice and 50 ml of coconut milk. What is the ratio o
Kruka [31]

Answer:

1/14:5/7:3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since orange=15

Apple=5

Coconut milk=50

50+15+5

70

So

Orange=15/70

Divide both by 5

=3/14

Apple=5/70

Divide both by 5

=1/14

Coconut milk=50/70

Divide both by 10

=5/7

So the ratio of apple to coconut to orange

1/14:5/7:3/14

If v = 6i + 3j, what is ||-10v||
tia_tia [17]

The values of ||-10v|| is 51.96 units

  • Complex numbers are square roots of negative numbers. They are expressions that consist of both the real and imaginary axis.

  • The general form of a complex number is expressed as z = x + iy

Given the complex number v = 6i + 3j,

10v is expressed as 10(6i + 3j)

10(6i + 3j) = 60i + 30j

Take the modulus of the complex number:

|10v|=\sqrt{60^2+30^2}\\|10v|= \sqrt{1800+900}\\|10v|= \sqrt{2700} \\|10v|=51.96units

Hence the values of ||-10v|| is 51.96 units

Consider the incomplete paragraph proof.
Leya [2.2K]

The hypotenuse is c = a\sqrt{2}  times the length of each leg 'a'. Triangle XYZ is a isosceles right triangle, therefore the Pythagoras theorem becomes  and this can be evaluated by using properties of isosceles triangle.

According to the statement

we have given that a theorem and we have to prove it.

So, For this purpose,

The given information is :

Isosceles triangle XYZ where Angle X = 45^{0} Angle Y = 45^{0} Angle Z = 90^{0}

Let the sides of triangle XYZ be a, b, and c. Then side XY = c, YZ = b and ZX = a.

Now, it is given that triangle XYZ is isosceles triangle therefore, the shorter sides must be equal that is, a = b.

Now use Pythagoras theorem

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

But here a= b then the equation become

a^{2} + a^{2} = c^{2}

Then after solving it become

2a^{2} = c^{2}

And here we have to find the value of the hypotenuse,

so we solve it for c.

Then

c = a\sqrt{2}

From this it is clear that the

it can be concluded that the hypotenuse is  times the length of each leg 'a'.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-6, – 7) and is perpendicular to the line 6x + 5y = 30?
fomenos

Answer :6x + 5y = 30

5y = 30 - 6x

y = 6 - (6/5) x

So slope = -6/5

Perpendicular line has slope 5/6   (product of the slopes is -1)

So y = 5/6 x            +   b

Passed through (-6, -7) so           -7  =   -5  + b

Sp b = -2

So y = (5/6)x - 2
