In the x quarts of 2% fat milk, there is 0.02x quarts of fat.
in the y quarts of 4% fat milk there is 0.04y quarts of fat.
together, there is (x+y) quarts of milk, and 0.24 quarts of fat.
the equations are:
x+y=9
0.02x+0.04y=0.24
multiply the first equation with 0.02: 0.02x+0.02y=0.18
subtract this new equation from equaition 2 to eliminate x:
0.04y-0.02y=0.24-0.18
0.02y=0.06
y=3
x=9-3=6
x is twice as much as y.
He used twice as much as the 2% fat milk than the 4% fat milk. 
so the first choice is the correct answer.

There are two values of a for which the equation 5x2+ax+7x+5=0 has only one solution for x. What is the sum of those values of a
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

-14

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we know that 5x^2+ ax+7x +5=0 only has one root. That means that b^2 - 4ac=0, and we can use this to find the discriminant, ax + 7x.

Now, if we simplified 5x^2+ ax+7x +5=0, by dividing it all by 5, it would be x^2+(a+7)/5x + 1 = 0.

After, we can plug what we know into the formula, b^2 - 4ac=0. It would be:

(a+7)^2 / 25 - 4 = 0

(a+7)^2 / 25 = 4

(a+7)^2 = 100

Since this is a square root, a+7 can be both negative or positive.

a+7= 10, or a+7 = -10

a=3, or a=-17

The question asks for the sum of a, which is 3 + (-17) = -14

Therefore, the answer is -14.

:) have fun with your rsm problems, assuming you got this from the portal.

A fruit company sells two types of boxes large and small. A delivery of two large boxes and three small boxes has a total weight
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

the large box weight is 6.50 kg and the small box weight is 13.75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of each type of box weight is as follows:

Let us assume the large box be x

And, the small box be y

So,

2x + 3y = 47.......(i)

6x + 5y = 115........(ii)

Multiply by 3 in equation 1

6x + 9y = 141

6x + 5y = 115

Now subtract the last equation from the above one

4y = 26

y = 6.50

For x, it would be

2x+ 3(6.50) = 47

2x + 19.5 = 47

2x = 47 - 19.50

2x = 27.50

x = 13.75

Hence, the large box weight is 6.50 kg and the small box weight is 13.75 kg
