Answer:

$A=\begin{bmatrix}6 & 5 & 3\\ 2 & 3 & 4\\ 2 & 2 & 3\end{bmatrix}$

$B=\begin{bmatrix}25\\ 18\\ 35\end{bmatrix}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the snack shop makes 3 mixes of nuts in the following proportions.

Mix I: 6 lbs peanuts, 2 lbs cashews, 2 lbs pecans.

Mix II: 5 lbs peanuts, 3 lbs cashews, 2 lbs pecans.

Mix III: 3 lbs peanuts, 4 lbs cashews, 3 lbs pecans.

they received an order for 25 of mix I, 18 of mix II, and 35 of mix III.

We need to find the matrices A & B for which AB gives the total number of lbs of each nut required to fill the order.

Mix I Mix II Mix III

peanuts 6 5 3

cashews 2 3 4

pecans 2 2 2

$A=\begin{bmatrix}6 & 5 & 3\\ 2 & 3 & 4\\ 2 & 2 & 3\end{bmatrix}$

$B=\begin{bmatrix}25\\ 18\\ 35\end{bmatrix}$

The product of both matrices is

$AB=\begin{bmatrix}6 & 5 & 3\\ 2 & 3 & 4\\ 2 & 2 & 3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}25\\ 18\\ 35\end{bmatrix}$

$AB=\begin{bmatrix}6\cdot \:25+5\cdot \:18+3\cdot \:35\\ 2\cdot \:25+3\cdot \:18+4\cdot \:35\\ 2\cdot \:25+2\cdot \:18+3\cdot \:35\end{bmatrix}$

$AB=\begin{bmatrix}345\\ 244\\ 191\end{bmatrix}$

Therefore matrix AB gives the total number of lbs of each nut required to fill the order.

Let f(x)=x^2+6x−16.<br> Enter the x-intercepts of the quadratic function in the boxes.

$\underline{\underline{\large\bf{Given:-}}}$

$\red{\leadsto}\:$ $\textsf{}$ $\sf f(x)= x^2+6x−16$

$\underline{\underline{\large\bf{To Find:-}}}$

$\orange{\leadsto}\:$ $\textsf{ x-intercepts of the quadratic function }$ $\sf$

$\\$

$\underline{\underline{\large\bf{Solution:-}}}\\$

$\longrightarrow$ x- intercept is the point where graph of given function touches the x-axis,f(x) becomes 0 at the point where graph of given function touches the x-axis. Therefore, we would to solve x^2+6x−16=0 and find its root.

$\begin{gathered}\\\implies\quad \sf x^2+6x−16=0 \\\end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered}\\\implies\quad \sf x^2+8x-2x −16=0 \\\end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered}\\\implies\quad \sf x(x+8)-2(x+8)=0 \\\end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered}\\\implies\quad \sf (x-2)(x+8)=0\\\end{gathered}$

$\begin{gathered}\\\implies\quad \sf x=2\quad or \quad x=-8 \\\end{gathered}$

$\leadsto$ x-intercepts of the given quadratic function are 2 and -8 .

Anyone please HELP cause I’m getting frustrated

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

U =35.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right angle, we can use trig functions

tan theta = opp/ adj

tan U = 5/7

Take the inverse of each side

tan ^-1 tan U = tan ^-1 (5/7)

U = 35.53767779

Round to the nearest tenth

U =35.5

The 24 ounce one ig because if you divide 7.50 by 15 you’ll find out that it’s 0.50€ per ounce. You’re saving money and getting more for the 25 pack because it should originally be $12.50 but they are giving you 10 more ounces for just $11.75
