Answer:
500 lbs of mixed nuts
Step-by-step explanation:
15.4% of mixed nuts = 77 lbs of pecans
Divide the weight of pecans by the percent of mixed nuts to find how many pounds of pecans equal 1% of the mixed nuts:
77 / 15.4 = 5, so 5 lbs equals 1% of mixed nuts
Now multiply that number by 100 to get 100% of mixed nuts:
5 x 100 = 500
Therefore, there are 500 lbs of mixed nuts in a batch altogether.
To check, 15.4% = 15.4/100 = 0.514
Therefore, 15.4% of 500 = 0.514 x 500 = 77
Thereby proving that 15.4% of 500 is 77.
Answer:
Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:

In which s is the speed, in miles per hour, d is the distance, in miles, and t is the time, in hours.
We have that:
At speed s, she takes two hours to drive. So


However, on one particular trip, after 40% of the drive, she had to reduce her speed by 30 miles per hour, driving at this slower speed for the rest of the trip. This particular trip took her 228 minutes.
228 minutes is 3.8 hours. So

So




Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.
Please post the question ..i'll solve for x
Answer: 
Explanation: Denominators of a fraction can be equivalently written as their value to the power of negative 1. In this case the denominator expression itself has an exponent of 6, which taken to the power of negative one becomes -6:

I assume that the equation you mean is below:

To find roots for this equation, we have to get rid of the denominator. We can do by multiplying both sides by 3.

Factor w-term out (common factor)
