Answer:the truck load of fruit weigh 440 pounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total weight of the truck load of fruit weigh x pounds.

The truck carries apples, grapes, and blackberries in the ratio of 4:3:4

The total ratio is the sum of the proportions of apples, grapes, and blackberries. It becomes 4+3+4 = 11

if the apples weigh 160 pounds, it means that

4/11 × x = 160

4x/11 = 160

4x = 160×11 = 1760

x = 1760/4

x = 440

A chemist has 10% and 40% solutions of acid available. How many liters of each solution should be mixed to obtain 120 liters of
kaheart [24]

Answer:

100 liters of  10% solution is used and 20 liters of  40% solution is used

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "X" amount of 10% solution is used. Then the amount of 40% solution used is equal to 120-X

Now

10% of X + 40% of (120-X) = 15% of 120

On solving the above equation, we get

0.1 X + 0.4 (120-X) = 0.15 *120\\0.1 X + 48 -0.4X = 18\\0.3 X = 30\\X = 100liters

Amount of 40% solution used  = 120 -X = 120-100 = 20 liters

100 liters of  10% solution is used and 20 liters of  40% solution is used

Find the measure of each angle that is labeled on the diagram shown below.
Elza [17]
Lets take it in order:

1) 90 deg because the angle right next to it is a right angle
2) 128 deg becasue of the angle directly across from it
3) x = 180 - 128 = 52 deg
4) 180 = 90 + 52 + x so x = 180 - 90 - 52 = 38
5) 180 = 38 + x so x = 180 - 38 = 142
6) Same as 4
7) Same as 5

Check my math, as I just did it in my head

How to find all real solutions
AlladinOne [14]
\bf \sqrt{\sqrt{x-5}+x}=5\leftarrow \textit{squaring both sides}
\\\\
\sqrt{x-5}+x=25\implies \sqrt{x-5}=25-x\leftarrow \textit{squaring both sides}
\\\\
x-5=(25-x)^2\implies x-5=625-50x+x^2
\\\\
0=x^2-51x+630\implies 0=(x-30)(x-21)

and surely you'd know what the roots are
