Step-by-step explanation:
Mixture problems are really easy because the table never varies from one problem to another and they don't have a lot of variations in them like motion problems do. The table for us will look like this, using T for Terraza coffee and K for Kona:
#lbs x $/lb = Total
T
K
Mix
Now we just have to fill this table in using the info given. We are told that T coffee is $9 per pound, and that K coffee is $13.50 per pound, so we will fill that in first:
#lbs x $/lb = Total
T 9
K 13.50
Mix
Next we are told that the mix is to be 50 pounds that will sell for $9.54 per pound
#lbs x $/lb = Total
T 9
K 13.50
Mix 50 9.54
Now the last thing we have to have to fill in this table is what goes in the first column in rows 1 and 2. If we need a mix of 50 pounds of both coffees and we don't know how many pounds of each to use, then under T we have x and under K we have 50 - x. Notice along the top we have that the method to use to solve this problem is to multiply the #lbs by the cost per pound, and that is equal to the Total. So we'll do that too:
#lbs x $/lb = Total
T x x 9 = 9x
K 50 - x x 13.50 = 675 - 13.50x
Mix 50 x 9.54 = 477
The last column is the one we focus on. We add the total of T to the total of K and set it equal to the total Mix:
9x + 675 - 13.5x = 477 and
-4.5x = -198 so
x = 44 pounds. This means that the distributor needs to mix 44 pounds of T coffee with 6 pounds of K coffee to get the mix he wants and to sell that mix for $9.54 per pound.
Tan 37,4 = opposite/adjacent
tan 37,4 = x/12,8
• then multiply both sides by 12,8
12,8tan 37,4 = x
Therefore x = 9, 79 x 100
= 97, 86
= 100
( I guess that’s how you can round it to the nearest hundred, please correct me if I’m wrong)
Second one:
I think that you assumed that:
2k - 1 = k + 2
However we can't do this, because a square has 4 sides whilst a triangle only has 3 sides.
This means that we can say
4(2k - 1) = 3(k + 2)
We multiply by 4 due to 4 sides of the square, and by 3 due to the 4 sides of the triangle.
Lets expand the brackets, and solve it:
4(2k - 1) = 3(k + 2)
8k -4 = 3k + 6
5k -4 = 6 ( subtract both sides by 3x to collect the x values)
5k = 10 (add both sides by 4 to get the x's alone)
k = 2 (divide both sides by 5 to get what just x is)
So k = 2 units
