Can you construct a triangle that has side lengths 5cm, 5cm, and 10cm? Yes or no

You are making a new type of deodorant from two different mixtures the first mixture is 30% smell proof and the second mixture i

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

600 L of 30% proof and 400 L of 80% proof is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of 30% smell proof be x while that of 80% smell proof is y

Then;

x + y = 1000 •••••(i)

Also;

30% of x + 80% of y = 50% of 1000

0.3x + 0.8y = 500 •••••(ii)

From i, x = 1000 - y

Put this into ii

0.3(1000-y) + 0.8y = 500

300 - 0.3y + 0.8y = 500

0.5y = 500-300

0.5y = 200

y = 200/0.5

y = 400 L

But x = 1000 - y

x = 1000 - 400 = 600 L

4(x + 3) = 6-x what is the answer I need help please

Amanda [17]

4(x + 3) = 6 - x

First, expand to remove parentheses.
$4x + 12 = 6 - x$
Second, subtract '6' from both sides.
$4x + 12 - 6 = -x$
Third, subtract '12 - 6' to get 6.
$4x + 6 = -x$
Fourth, subtract '4x' from both sides.
$6 = -x - 4x$
Fifth, since 'x' can be referred to as '1', add it to '4x' to get '-5x'.
$6 = -5x$
Sixth, divide both sides by '-5'.
$\frac{6}{-5} =x$
Seventh, change the whole fraction into a negative.
$-\frac{6}{5} =x$
Eighth, switch your sides.
$x = -\frac{6}{5}$

Answer as fraction: $-\frac{6}{5}$
Answer as decimal: -1.2

If the coordinates of the endpoints of a diameter of the circle are known, the equation of a circle can be found. First, find

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The equation of the circle is $(x+3)^2+(y-5)^2 = 17$

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

If the coordinates of the endpoints of a diameter of the circle are known, the equation of a circle can be found. First, find the midpoint of the diameter, which is the center of the circle. Then find the radius, which is the distance from the center to either endpoint of the diameter. Finally use the center-radius form to find the equation.

Find the center-radius form of the circle having the points (1,4) and (-7,6) as the endpoints of a diameter.

Consider that, if both points are the endpoints of a diameter, the center of the circle is the point that is exactly in the middle of the two points (that is, the point whose distance to each point is equal). Given points (a,b) and (c,d), by using the distance formula, you can check that the middle point is the average of the coordinates. Hence, the center of the circle is given by

$(\frac{1-7}{2}, \frac{4+6}{2}) = (-3,5)$ .

We will find the radius. Recall that the radius of the circle is the distance from one point of the circle to the center. Recall that the distance between points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by $\sqrt[]{(a-c)^2+(b-d)^2}$ . So, let us use (1,4) to calculate the radius.

$r = \sqrt[]{(1-(-3))^2+(4-5)^2} = \sqrt[]{17}$ .

REcall that given a point $(x_0,y_0)$ . The equation of a circle centered at the point $(x_0,y_0)$ is

$(x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2 = r^2$

In our case, $(x_0,y_0)=(-3,5)$ and $r=\sqrt[]{17}$ . Then, the equation is

$(x-(-3))^2+(y-5)^2 = (x+3)^2+(y-5)^2 = 17$

You’ve been asked to order cake for your school dance. Here’s a formula for the scenario: z=xa/y

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The number of cake for order is 15 cakes .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Total number of people to attend the dance = x = 60

The number of slices each person will eat = A = 2 slices

The number of slices per cake = y = 8 slices

Let The number of cake for order = z

Now, According to question

Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = total number of people × number of slices each person will eat

i.e Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = x × A

Or, Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = 60 × 2 slices

Or,Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices = 120 slices

Again

∵ number of slices per cake = 8

∴ The number of cake for order = $\dfrac{\textrm Total slices of cake required for 60 people when each people eat 2 slices}{\textrm number of slices per cake }$
