If a bag of pumpkin seeds must weigh within 2.1 grams in order to be accepted, each bags must weigh between (400-2.1) grams and (400+2.1) grams. This means that if a bag weighs less than 397.9 grams (x<397.9) or more than 402.1 grams (x>402.1) it will be rejected. Therefore, 397.9>x>402.1 is the range of rejected bags.

Answer:

x397.9 \ grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of rejected bags is found by summing and subtracting the 400 grams to 2.1 grams, because the second one represent the acceptable margin.

So, we have:

(400-2.1) \ grams

However, this interval represents the accepted range. The rejected range would be the opposite. Therefore, the asked range is:

x397.9 \ grams

Suppose the 13 inch is aware cost $.78 at the same rate how much (in cents) will 33 inches of wire cost
miskamm [114]
When comparing to thing with same rate, set up a proportion:
Inches/cost

13/.78=33/x
(13)(x)=(.78)(33) [cross multiplied]
13x=25.74 [simplified]
13/13x=25.74/13 [division property]
x=1.98

33 inches of wire will cost $1.98.

(-4,5) and (4,0) find the distance between each pair of points
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

9.4339 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given with two coordinates and asked to determine the distance between them.

Here we are going to use the distance formula, which is given as under

D=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}

Where

(x_1,y_1) = (-4,5)

(x_2,y_2) = (4,0)

Replacing these values in the distance formula

D =\sqrt{(-4-4))^2+(5-0)^2}

D =\sqrt{(-8)^2+(5)^2}

D =\sqrt{64+25}

D =\sqrt{89}

D= 9.4339

Hence the distance is 9.4339 units

Eight times a number plus five another number is -13. The sum of the two numbers is 1. What are the numbers?
Pani-rosa [81]
Eight *(a number) plus 5*(another number) is -13.

translates to:

8(x) + 5(y) = -13

The sum of (the number) and (the other number) is 1.

translates to:

(x) + (y) = 1


We have a system of two equations involving two unknowns: x and y.

\rm 8x+5y=-13\\&#10;~~x+~~y=~~~~1

We can easily solve the system using Substitution or Elimination. Let's use Elimination this time.

We'll multiply the second equation by -8 so that the x's match up.

\rm ~~~8x+5y=-13\\ -8x-8y=-8

When we add the equations together, the x's will fall out of the equation, summing to zero. The 5y and -8y will sum to -3y and the right hand side will sum to -21.

\rm -3y=-21

Divide by -3,

\rm y=7

Plug back into one of your original equations to find the value of x,

\rm x+y=1\\&#10;x+7=1

Subtract 7,

\rm x=-6
