<h3>Weight after being cooked is 12.6 oz</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

When meat cooks, its weight increases by approximately 26%

Justin cooks a boneless chicken thigh that is 10 oz before cooking

<em><u>To find: Predict its weight after being cooked</u></em>

Therefore,

Weight after cooked = 10 + 26 % of 10

$Weight\ after\ cooked = 10 + \frac{26}{100} \times 10\\\\Weight\ after\ cooked = 10 + 0.26 \times 10\\\\Weight\ after\ cooked = 10 + 2.6\\\\Weight\ after\ cooked = 12.6$

Thus weight after being cooked is 12.6 oz

A mistake was made in mixing the lemonade—<br> PLEASE HELP!!

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Part A:

$4 + x = y$

$0.5*4 + 1*x = 0.7*y$

$x = 8/3\ quarts\ of\ 100\%\ solution$

$y = 20/3\ quarts\ of\ 70\%\ solution$

Part B:

$x + y = 10$

$2x + 3y = 23$

$x = 7$ and $y = 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The inicial concentration of the lemonade is 50%, and the volume is 4 quarts, and we will add x quarts of a lemonade with a concentration of 100%, so the total volume will be y, and the concentration will be 0.7, so we have that:

$4 + x = y$

$0.5*4 + 1*x = 0.7*y$

Using the value of y from the first equation in the second one, we have:

$2 + x = 0.7*(4 + x)$

$2 + x = 2.8 + 0.7x$

$0.3x = 0.8$

$x = 8/3\ quarts$

$y = 4 + 8/3 = 20/3\ quarts$

Part B:

If he shoots a total of ten targets, we can write the equation:

$x + y = 10$

Each stationary target is 2 points, and each moving target is 3 points, so if the total points is 23, we have:

$2x + 3y = 23$

If we subtract the second equation by two times the first one, we have:

$2x + 3y - 2*(x + y) = 23 - 2*10$

$2x + 3y - 2x - 2y = 23 - 20$

$y = 3$

$x + 3 = 10$ ⇒ $x = 7$

Which equation can be used to calculate the surface area of the triangular prism net show below?

enyata [817]

Given:

Net of a triangular prism

To find:

Which equation can be used to calculate the surface area of the triangular prism.

Solution:

Using formulas:

Area of rectangle = length × width

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\times b\times h$

Area of left triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 12$

Area of right triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 12$

Area of bottom = 5 × 10

Area of Middle = 12 × 10

Area of top = 13 × 10

Surface area of triangular prism:

Surface area = Area of left triangle + Area of right triangle + Area of bottom + Area of middle + Area of top

$$=\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 10+\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 10+5\times 10+12\times 10+13\times 10$

Replace multiplication by brackets.

$$=\frac{1}{2}(5)(10)+\frac{1}{2}(5)(10)+5( 10)+12( 10)+13( 10)$

The equation can be used to calculate surface area of triangular prism is

$$\frac{1}{2}(5)(10)+\frac{1}{2}(5)(10)+5( 10)+12( 10)+13( 10)$ .
