Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

129-(-1) = 130

Answer:

n = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

This is Arithmetic sequence

a = -1

Common difference = 4 - (-1) = 4 +1 = 5

an = a + (n-1)d

129 = -1 + (n-1)*5

129 + 1 = (n-1)*5

130 = (n-1)*5

130/5 = n - 1

26 = n - 1

n = 26 + 1

n =27

a metal worker has a metal alloy that is 20% copper, and another metal alloy that is 60% copper. How many kilograms (kg) of each
emmainna [20.7K]

Let X = the 29% alloy and Y = the 60% alloy.

They want a total of 80kg, so you have X +Y = 80

Rewrite that to get X = 80-Y


You also want 0.20X + 0.60Y = 0.52(80)

Replace X with 80-y:

0.20(80-y) + 0.60y = 0.52(80)

Simplify:

16 - 0.20y + 0.60y = 41.6

Combine like terms:

16 +0.40y = 41.6

Subtract 16 from each side:

0.40y = 25.6

Divide both sides by 0.40

y = 25.6 / 0.40

y = 64


Now you have Y replace y with 80 in X = 80-Y

X = 80 - 64

X = 16

They need 64 Kg of the 60% alloy and 16 Kg of the 20% alloy.

How to convert a repeating decimal to a fraction when only 1 digit is repeating?
Alecsey [184]
Example 0.777777

x = 0.77
10(x = 0.77) ----(10 because it is repeating by the tenth digit. if repeating by 2 digits like 0.2828, you'll multiply by 100)

10x = 7.77
-(x = 0.77)
9x = 7.00
x = 7/9

A recipe from Sally’s "Chocoholic’s Cookbook" requires 70\frac{1}{6} grams of chocolate for each chocolate fudge cake. How many
erik [133]

Answer:

842 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

70\frac{1}{6} =\frac{421}{6}

\frac{421}{6} *12\\\\842

One cake consists of 421/6 grams of chocolate.

Since Sally wants to give 1 cake to 12 friends, we multiply 421/6 and 12.

To make 12 cakes, she needs 842 grams of chocolate.

The area of the bottom of a shoebox can be written as a(x) = 2x2 - 4 and the height of the shoebox can be written as h(x) = 3x +
Helga [31]

Answer:V(x) = 6x³ + 4x² - 12x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The shoe box can either be cube shaped or cubiod shaped. The volume of the box is length × breadth × height

Since Area = Length × Breadth

Volume = Area × Height

V(x) = A(x) × H(x)

A(x) = 2x² - 4

H(x) = 3x + 2

V(x) = (2x² - 4)(3x + 2)

V(x) = 6x³ + 4x² - 12x - 8
