Answer:

8lb of the cheaper Candy

17.5lb of the expensive candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cheaper candy be x

let the costly candy be y

X+y = 25.5....equation one

2.2x +7.3y = 25.5(5.7)

2.2x +7.3y = 145.35.....equation two

X+y = 25.5

2.2x +7.3y = 145.35

Solving simultaneously

X= 25.5-y

Substituting value of X into equation two

2.2(25.5-y) + 7.3y = 145.35

56.1 -2.2y +7.3y = 145.35

5.1y = 145.35-56.1

5.1y = 89.25

Y= 89.25/5.1

Y= 17.5

X= 25.5-y

X= 25.5-17.5

X= 8

You are recreating a scale drawing at a different scale. The original scale is 1 cm : 8 m. The new scale is 1 cm : 2 m. In the o

Answer:

The segment should be 36 centimeters long

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the ratio method to solve the question

∵ The original scale is 1 cm : 8 m

∵ In the original drawing, the length of a segment is 9 centimeters

→ By using the ratio method

→ cm : m

→ 1 : 8

→ 9 : x

→ By using the cross multiplication

∵ 1 × x = 9 × 8

∴ x = 72 m

∴ The actual length of the segment is 72 m

∵ The new scale is 1 cm : 2 m

∵ The actual length of the segment is 72 m

→ By using the ratio method

→ cm : m

→ 1 : 2

→ y : 72

→ By using the cross multiplication

∵ y × 2 = 1 × 72

∴ 2y = 72

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find y

∴ y = 36

∴ The drawing length of the segment is 36 cm in the new scale

∴ The segment should be 36 centimeters long

Triangle- interior angle<br> Please help !

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

x = 25

<B = 120 degrees

<C = 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Total angle measure of a triangle - 180 degrees

Add all the angles together to find the value of x

30 + 4x + 20 + x + 5 = 180

55 + 5x = 180

55 - 55 + 5x = 180 - 55

5x = 125

$\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{125}{5}$

x = 25

<B = 4(25) + 20

<B = 100 + 20

<B = 120

<C = 25 + 5

<C = 30
