100(.85)=x(.9)+(100-x)(.4)
85=.9x+40-.4x 
45=.5x 
x=90

Thus 90lbs of the 90 cent and 10lbs of the 40 cent.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

m∆IED= 83°

m∆JFG= 87°

Step by step

m∆IED is 97° so if you subtract 97 from 180(a straight line) you would get 83°

and the same for m∆JFG if you subtract 93 from 180 you get 87°

hope this helps

Triangle RST has sides measuring 22 inches and 13 inches and a perimeter of 50 inches. What is the area of triangle RST? Round t
VladimirAG [237]

Using the Heron's formula, the area of the triangle is: D. 95 square inches.

<h3>What is the Heron's Formula?</h3>

Area = √[s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)] where s is half the perimeter, or (a + b + c)/2.

Given the following:

s = semi-perimeter = 1/2(50) = 25 in.

a = length of side a = 22 in.

b = length of side b = 13 in.

c = length of side c = 50 - 22 - 13 = 15 in.

Plug in the values

Area = √[25(25 - 22)(25 - 13)(25 - 15)]

Area = √[25(3)(12)(10)]

Area ≈ 95 square inches.
