Answer: In your mix, you have 7 ounces of almonds and 5 ounces of raisins, which adds to 7 + 5 = 12 ounces of mix.

Because we want to know the proportion of almonds, then if 12 is the total amount, 7/12 is the proportion of almonds in the mix, this is 7/12 = 0.583

In one pound there are 16 ounces, so in one pound of mix you have 16 ounces of it. Now you know the proportion of almonds in a mix is of 0.583, then you multiply this by the ounces of mix and you get the ounces of almonds in it:

0.583*16 = 9.33

then you have 9.33 ounces of almonds in one pound of mix.

Find the diameter of a sphere knowing ONLY the volume.<br> (the volume is 1436.755m^3)
liraira [26]
Formula for the volume of the sphere
\frac{4}{3}  \times \pi \times {r}^{3}
= 1436.755
\frac{1436.755}{\pi \times  \frac{4}{3} }  =  {r}^{3}  \\r = 6.999999935 \\ d = 13.999999

Solve the system using substitution <br> y=8-x <br> 7=2-y
Alexus [3.1K]
If y=8-x then you can plug that into the equation like 7=2-(8-x). When you distribute the equation becomes 7=2-8+x. Once you combine like terms the equation becomes 7=-6+x. Then you subtract 6 from both sides, which gives you 13=x.
To find y just put 13 where x was in the first equation. Y=8-13.
Y=-5
X=13

Find the ratio of the area of triangle XBY to the area of triangle ABC for the given measurements, if BY = 3, YC = 2
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The ratio of the area of triangle XBY to the area of triangle ABC is \frac{9}{25}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor and the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

In this problem

Triangles XBY and ABC are similar, because the corresponding internal angles are congruent

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the scale factor

Let

z-------> the scale factor

z=\frac{BY}{BC}

we have

BY=3\ units

BC=2+3=5\ units

substitute

z=\frac{3}{5}

step 2

Find the ratio of the area of triangle XBY to the area of triangle ABC

Remember that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

we have

z=\frac{3}{5} -----> scale factor

so

z^{2} =(\frac{3}{5})^{2} =\frac{9}{25}

Which segment shows the cyclist stopping for a drink of water?
ladessa [460]
The only way to properly answer your question is with the image, but without it, I can still give you a guess of what it will be. 

Generally, with these types of problems, the cyclist will begin riding at an increasingly fast pace, Then they will begin slowing down, so the line decreases. When he stops for water the line should remain constant. Meaning a straight horizontal line such as this ------------------

If you can include an image I can give you the exact answer you're looking for, however.
