Your rows would be $0.90 Chocolate, $1.20 Chocolate, and the Total Chocolate Mix, and your columns would be the Amount of Chocolate in #s and the Total Costs

(This is the best I can do coming up with a grid)

________________amt (#)_________total costs

$0.90_____________10______________9.00

$1.20______________x______________1.20x

 

Total Mix_________10+x_____________9+1.2x

Using this grid, you see that 10+x=9+1.2x so solve for x

10+x -x=9+1.2x -x

10=9+.2x

10 -9=9+.2x -9

1=.2x

1/.2=(.2x)/.2

x=5, so you need 5lbs of the $1.20 chocolate to produce a mixture worth $1.00

What is the product of 76 and 6.0 x 10^2 expressed in scientific notation?
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

45.6 x 10^3

Step-by-step explanation:

76 can be expressed as 7.6 x 10^1.

Now, you can multiply the two values together.

7.6 x 6.0 is 45.6.

Then, add the two exponents together:

1 + 2 = 3

45.6 x 10^3

For what value of x is angle 1 complementary to angle 2, if m angle 1=5x+4 and m angle 2=7x+2?
belka [17]

<span>Two </span>Angles<span> <span>are </span></span>Complementary<span> <span>when they add up to 90 degrees (a Right </span></span>Angle). They don't have to be next to each other, just so long as the total is 90 degrees.

So (5x + 4) + ( 7x + 2) = 90

12x + 6 = 90

12x = 90 – 6

12x = 84

<span>X = 7</span>

There is a bag with only red marbles and blue marbles. The probability of randomly choosing a red marble is 2 9 . There are 63 m
Tatiana [17]

The main idea is the number of marbles and the denominator of the probability. All you have to do is multiply the fraction by a fraction which is equal to 1 which makes the denominator equal to 63. We know 63 is a multiple of 9. 9 goes 7 times in 63 so we multiple the fraction \frac{2}{9} with \frac{7}{7} which gives, \frac{2 * 7}{9 * 7} which when evaluated gives \frac{14}{63} and the numerator is the number of red marbles in the bag. So there are 14 red marbles in the bag :D
