Puppies : Adults = 1 : 4

Total parts = 1 + 4 = 5

5 parts = 100 dogs
1 part = 100 ÷ 5 = 20 dogs

In a box there are 21 identical pieces that have been enumerated using odd numbers from 5 to 45. How many tiles should be drawn

Orlov [11]

These are the only combinations of exactly 3 tiles that add to 33.

5,7,21

5,9,19

5,11,17

5,13,15

7,9,17

7,11,15

9,11,13

All tiles with numbers above 21 do not help you. 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45. There are 12 of them.

Every three-number combination must have one of the numbers 5, 7, or 9, so if the six numbers from 13 to 21 are picked, in addition to the 12 higher numbers mentioned above, you already picked 18 tiles, and you still have no solution. To obtain the solutions 5,7,21; 5,9,19; 7,9,17; he needs two more numbers in addition to the 18 he already has, so he needs 20 tiles in total to be guaranteed three of them add to exactly 33.

Answer: 20 tiles

Suppose you work for a large coffee distributor that has a secret coffee blend it sells to local stores. You mix the House blend

TiliK225 [7]

The ratio House blend/Organic Free Trade blend is the same and must remain the same.

So, the proportion is:

$\frac{140}{168}=\frac{130}{x}$

Where x is the unknown amount of the Organic Free Trade blend.

So, from the proportion, we have:

$\begin{gathered} 140\cdot x=168\cdot130 \\ 140x=21840 \\ \frac{140x}{140}=\frac{21840}{140} \\ x=156 \end{gathered}$

Answer: 156 pounds of Organic Free Trade blend

Find the length of the diameter of circle 0

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Diameter = 19.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Imaging a radius line from O to the endpoints of the 7. call this line R.

Label the part of the vertical line from O to the 90 degree intersection y.

Now you have a right triangle.

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

R² = 7² + y²

also

y = R - 3

substitute for y:

R² = 49 + (R-3)²

R² = 49 + R² - 6R + 9

simplify:

0 = 58 - 6R

6R = 58

R = 9.6667

Diameter = 2(9.6667) = 19.33
