Answer: She should blend 98 lbs of high-quality beans.

She should blend 72 lbs of cheaper beans

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pounds of high quality beans that she should blend.

Let y represent the number of pounds of cheaper beans that she should blend.

She needs to prepare 170 lbs of blended coffee beans. This means that

x + y = 170

She plans to do this by blending together a high-quality bean costing $4.75 per pound and a cheaper bean at $2.00 per pound. The blend would sell for $3.59 per pound. This means that the total cost of the blend would be 3.59×170 = $610.3. This means that

4.75x + 2y = 610.3 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 170 - y into equation 1, it becomes

4.75(170 - y) + 2y = 610.3

807.5 - 4.75y + 2y = 610.3

- 4.75y + 2y = 610.3 - 807.5

- 2.75y = - 197.2

y = - 197.2/-2.75 = 71.9

y = 72 pounds

x = 170 - y = 170 - 71.9

x = 98.1

x = 98 pounds

What is the shaded portion of the circle
blagie [28]

Answer:

(5\pi-11.6)\ ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of the sector minus the area of the triangle

step 1

Find the area of the circle

the area of the circle is equal to

A=\pi r^{2}

we have

r=5\ ft

substitute

A=\pi (5)^{2}

A=25\pi\ ft^{2}

step 2

Find the area of the sector

we know that

The area of the circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

so

by proportion find out the area of a sector by a central angle of 72 degrees

\frac{25\pi}{360}=\frac{x}{72}\\ \\x=72*25\pi /360\\ \\x=5\pi\ ft^{2}

step 3

Find the area of triangle

The area of the triangle is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(2.9+2.9)(4)= 11.6\ ft^{2}

step 4

Find the area of the shaded region

Subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the sector

(5\pi-11.6)\ ft^{2}

57:22 5 What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the po
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

C. y + 3 = ¼(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Find the slope of the given line:

Slope = ∆y/∆x = -(4/1) = -4

The line that is perpendicular to the given line on the graph would have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of -4.

Thus, the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the line on the graph would be ¼.

m = ¼.

Since the line passes through (-4, -3), to write the equation in point-slope form, substitute a = -4, b = -3, and m = ¼ into y - b = m(x - a)

Thus:

y - (-3) = ¼(x - (-4))

y + 3 = ¼(x + 4)

Need answer to 2/3+5/4
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

23/12 or 1 and 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Your first step is that you need to gain a common denomitor. In this scenario, this is 12. To get this, you can either go through the given factors such as 3 having the factors of 6, 9, and 12 and 4 having the factors of 8, and 12.

Another method is the multiply the two given denominators together, but there are certain instances where you shouldn't do that.

Now that you have a common denominator, you need to change the numerators to accomadate the denominators. For 3 to turn into 12, you need to multiply it by 4, thus you have to do the same to the numerator. For 4 to turn into 12, you need to multiply it by 3. This will give you these two new fractions:

8/12 + 15/12

Add the numerators to get 23/12 and then simplify the two numbers to get the mixed number of 1 and 11/12.

Hope this helps!

A student concludes that for all values of x,x^2+x+1 produces a prime number. Which value of x serves as counterexample to prove
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

j

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values into x² + x + 1 and check if result is prime

x = - 4

(- 4)² - 4 + 1 = 16 - 4 + 1 = 13 ← prime

(- 2)² - 2 + 1 = 4 - 2 + 1 = 3 ← prime

(- 3)² - 3 + 1 = 9 - 3 + 1 = 7 ← prime

4² + 4 + 1 = 16 + 4 + 1 = 21 ← not prime

x = 4 serves as a counterexample to disprove this conclusion
