Answer:

.009 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{7.5}{10}\frac{feet}{minutes} * \frac{1}{5280} \frac{miles}{feet} *\frac{60}{1}\frac{minutes}{hour}$

This is the method you should take with unit conversions in general, just set up fractions so the units cancel out, like the 7.5 feet cancels out with the feet in the 1/5280 so miles is left on top.

Eric's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee costs Eric $5.50 per pound, and type B

115.2 pounds of type A coffee were used.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation?</h3>

A mathematical statement that has an "equal to" symbol between two expressions with equal values is called an equation.

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side. It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides. We have LHS = RHS (left hand side = right hand side) in every mathematical equation. To determine the value of an unknown variable that represents an unknown quantity, equations can be solved.

Let the number of pounds of type A coffee be x and the number of pounds of Type B coffee be y.

According to the question, the equations are,

5.50x + 4.40y = 762.30

x = 4y

So, the solution of the equation is obtained as follows:

5.50(4y) + 4.40y = 762.30

26.40y = 762.30

y = 762.30/26.40

y = 28.8 pounds

x = 4*28.8 = 115.2 pounds

Describe the pattern in the numbers. write the next number in the pattern

noname [10]

The pattern in the first set of numbers is times 3, to find the next number multiply 54 by 3 to get 162.
The pattern in the second set of numbers is plus 4, to find the next number add 4 to 0 to get 4.
The pattern in the last set of numbers timed -3, to find the next number multiply -81 by -3 to get 243.

Answer:

solution,

$a. \: 17 \: cos \: p = 8 \\ cos \: p = \frac{8}{17} \\ sec \: p = \frac{1}{cos \: p} \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{17}{8} \\ \\ b. \: sin \: p = \sqrt{1 - ( \frac{8}{17}) ^{2} } \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \sqrt{1 - \frac{64}{289} } \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \sqrt{ \frac{1 \times 289 - 64}{289} } \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \sqrt{ \frac{225}{289} } \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \sqrt{ { \frac{15}{ {17}^{2} } }^{2} } \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{15}{17}$

hope this helps...
