A merchant has coffee worth $20 a pound that she wishes to mix with 70 pounds of coffee worth $90 a pound to get a mixture that
Dvinal [7]

Let us start with assuming the amount of coffee worth $20 a pound to be "x" pounds.

Now she wants to mix "x" pounds of $20 coffee with 70 pounds of $90 coffee.

So the mixture would be (x + 70) pounds.

And the value of mixture would be = 20·x + (90)·(70) = (20x + 6300) dollars.

She want to sell this mixture at rate of $30 a pound. Her earning would be = 30·(x + 70) = (30x + 2100) dollars.

We know that the value of mixture would be equal to her earnings.

30x + 2100 = 20x + 6300

30x - 20x = 6300 - 2100

10x = 4200

x = 420

So, 420 pounds of $20 coffee would be used.

A trapezoid has bases that measure 9 cm and 5 cm. The height of the figure is 4 cm. What is the area of the trapezoid?
zzz [600]

Answer:

28 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid (formula):

(a + b) ÷ 2 x h

Where a & b are the bases, and h is height.

Use formula with given measurements:

(9 + 5) ÷ 2 x 4 = 28

Area is measured in square centimeters

(centimeters in this case)

Therefore the area if the trapezoid is 28 cm^2

I really hope this helps!

How do you determine the slope interscept equation of two given pointa
DiKsa [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope intercept form of any equation using two points, you first need to find the slope. You can do this using the slope formula below.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

In this equation, we find the slope by putting in the values we have given the points. The first point you have would be (x1, y1). So if your first point is (3, 1), you would put 3 in for x1 and 1 in for y1. Then you do the same for the second point using (x2, y2).

After you've solved that equation and got m, you can use point-slope form. Take your first point and your newly found slope and plug the values into the following equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

After this, you can solve for y and that will be your slope intercept form.

The position function of a particle in rectilinear motion is given by s(t) = 2t3 – 21t2 + 60t + 3 for t ≥ 0 with t measured in s
stepladder [879]
When the direction is reversed  velocity = 0 

v = ds/dt =  6t^2 - 42t + 60 = 0

t^2 - 7t + 10 = 0

(t - 5)(t - 2) = 0

t = 2 s  and 5 s   which are the times when the direction is reversed
Position at t = 2 =  2(2)^3 - 21(2)^2 +60(2) + 3 =  55 feet
  at t = 5  position =  28 feet

Acceleration  = dv/dt = 12t - 42

At t = 2  acceleration =  -18 ft s-2
At  t = 5   ...............    = 18 ft s-2
