A contractor requires a cement mix that is 70% sand and 30% cement. He has 1400 kg of a cement mix that is 80% sand and 20% ceme
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

added cement = 200 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Sand = 0.8*1400

Sand = 1120 kg

If 1120 kg of sand represents the total sand in the 8:2 mixture.

We have to create the equation of the 7:3 mixture as follows.

The sand amount continues the same but the total amount of the mixture and cement will change.

0.7*mixture_mass + 0.3*mixture_mass = mixture_mass

By replacing values, we have:

1120 kg + 0.3*(1400 kg + added cement)= 1400 kg + added cement

added cement = 200kg

Which pair of points have equal x-coordinates?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

A. Q and R

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-axis is the horizontal line. The y-axis is the vertical line.

On the x-axis, go to the left, all the way to -5.

Look at the line that goes through -5 vertically. You will see that that line intersects with both Q and R.

This means that Q and R have equal x-coordinates, -5.

They're x and y coordinates would be

Q- (-5, 6)

R- (-5, -7)

I hope this helps!
