Alloy C is made from some part of Alloy A and Alloy B. Alloy C, which weighs 400 ounces and has 40% aluminum, is obtained from m

elting together x ounces of Alloy A, which has 30% aluminum, and y ounces of Alloy B, which has 60% aluminum. Which equation will help find how many of ounces of each alloy A and alloy B are used to make Alloy C?

Answer:

I suppose correct opton is option A, but all options are for 55% alloy B

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Alloy A (30%):</u>

Weight = x ounces

Weight of aluminium =0.3\cdot x=0.3x ounces

<u>Alloy B (60%):</u>

Weight = y ounces

Weight of aluminium =0.6\cdot y=0.6y ounces

<u>Alloy C (40%):</u>

Weight = 400 ounces

Weight of aluminium =0.4\cdot 400 ounces

The weight of alloy C is combined weight of alloys A and B, then

x+y=400

The weight of aluminium in alloy C is combined weight of aluminium in alloys A and B, then

0.3x+0.6y=0.4\cdot 400

Suppose a regular n-gon is inscribed in a circle of radius r. Diagrams are shown for n=6, n=8, and n = 12. n = 6 n=8 n = 12 a a
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:If an N-gon (polygon with N sides) has perimeter P, then each of the  

N sides has length P/N.  If we connect two adjacent vertices to the  

center, the angle between these two lines is 360/N degrees, or 2*pi/N  

radians.  (Do you understand radian measure well enough to follow me  

this far?)

The two lines I just drew, plus the side of the polygon between them,  

form an isosceles triangle.  Adding the altitude of the isosceles  

triangle makes two right triangles, and we can use one of them to  

derive the equation

 sin(theta/2) =  s/(2R)

where theta is the apex angle (which I said is 2*pi/N radians), R is  

the length of the lines to the center (the radius of the circumscribed  

circle), and s is the length of the side (which I said is P/N).

Putting those values into the equation, we have

 sin(pi/N) = P/(2NR)

so that

 P = 2NR sin(pi/N)

gives the perimeter of the N-gon with circumradius R.

Can we see a connection between this formula and the perimeter of a  

circle?  The perimeter of the circumcircle is 2*pi*R.  As we increase  

N, the perimeter of the polygon should get closer and closer to this  

value.  Comparing the two, we see

 2NR*sin(pi/N) approaches 2*pi*R

 N*sin(pi/N)   approaches pi

You can check this out with a calculator, using big numbers for N such  

as your teacher's N=1000.  If you calculate the sine of an angle in  

degrees rather than radians, the formula will look like

 N*sin(180/N) --> pi

Compute the present value of $9,000 paid in four years using the following discount rates: 4 percent in year 1, 5 percent in yea
juin [17]

The sum would amount to $10,527.75 after the end of 4 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Problem pertains to compounding interest with varying rates over the years. Our approach to solve the problem would be in a chronological fashion starting with the 1st year

Principal- $ 9000  

Rate interest= 4%

Time period would be 1 year since the interest are considered for successive years.

We know the formulae- Amount= Principal (1+rate/100) ⁿ

Where “n”= time period= 1 in all cases

⇒Amount after 1st year at 4% rate= 9000(1+4/100)  

9000*104/100= $ 9360

This amount would serve as Principal for 2nd year

⇒Hence, Amount for 2nd year at 5% rate= 9360(1+5/100)

9000*105/100= $ 9828

⇒Similarly, Amount for 3rd year at 4% rate= 9828(1+4/100)

=9828*104/100= $ 10,221.12

⇒Amount for the last year at 3% rate= 10,221.12(1+3/100)

=10,221.12*103/100= $ 10527.75

Hence the present value of the amount is $ 10527.75 after the end of 4 years.
