Ella is cooking a turkey and a ham for Thanksgiving. It takes 15 minutes per pound to cook a turkey and 23 minutes per pound to

cook a ham. Ella is able to cook the turkey and the ham in 5 hours and 18 minutes. If the turkey weighs twice as much as the ham, how much do the turkey and the ham weigh?

Lets t be turkey and h be ham:

t=2h

5hr*60min/1hr=300min+18=318min

15t+23h= 318

15(2h)+23h=318

30h+23h=318

53h=318

h= 6 

t=2(6)=12

6-pounds ham and 12 pounds of turkey

Answer:

The exact answer in terms of radicals is x = 5*\sqrt[3]{25}

The approximate answer is x \approx 14.62009 (accurate to 5 decimal places)

===============================================

Work Shown:

Let y = \sqrt[5]{x^3}

So the equation reduces to  -7  = 8-3y

Let's solve for y

-7 = 8-3y

8-3y = -7

-3y = -7-8 ... subtract 8 from both sides

-3y = -15

y = -15/(-3) ... divide both sides by -3

y = 5

-----------

Since y = \sqrt[5]{x^3} and y = 5, this means we can equate the two expressions and solve for x

y = 5

\sqrt[5]{x^3} = 5

x^3 = 5^5 Raise both sides to the 5th power

x^3 = 3125

x = \sqrt[3]{3125} Apply cube root to both sides

x = \sqrt[3]{125*25}

x = \sqrt[3]{125}*\sqrt[3]{25}

x = \sqrt[3]{5^3}*\sqrt[3]{25}

x = 5*\sqrt[3]{25}

x \approx 14.62009

Find x. Assume that segments that appear tangent are tangent.
kipiarov [429]
Assuming that CB is tangent, this is just a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 20 and a side of 12 so by the Pythagorean Theorem:

20^2=12^2+x^2

400=144+x^2

x^2=400-144

x^2=256

x=16

I NEED HELP ON THIS QUESTION (I will give a Brainlist to the best one no links please.)
inysia [295]
The answer is 69.6 degrees because all of the angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees so adding 42 and 68.4 gets 110.4, and then subtracting that from 180 gets 69.9.
