Robert makes 50 litres of green paint by mixing litres of yellow paint and litres of blue paint in the ratio 2:3.

podryga [215]

Answer:

35%

Explanation:

1. Cost of each liter of yellow paint:

Yellow paint is sold in 5 litre tins and ach tin costs £26, thus the cost of one liter is £26 / 5 liters = £5.2 per liter.

2. Cost of each liter of blue paint:

Blue paint is sold in 10 litre tins and each tin costs £48, thus the cost of one liter of blue paint is £48 / 10 liters = £4.8 per liter

3. Cost of each liter of green paint.

Green paint is made by mixing yellow paint and blue paint in the ratio 2:3

Thus, 5 liters of green paint will cost:

2 liters yellow paint: 2 liter × £5.2 / liter = £10.4

3 liters blue paint: 3 liter × £4.8 / liter = £14.4

========== ========

5 liters green paint: 5 liter £24.8

Cost of one liter of gree paint: £24.8 / 5 liter = £4.96 / liter

4. Profit

Price of each liter of green paint: £66.96 / 10 liters = £6.696 / liter = £6.70 / liter

Profit per liter = price per liter - cost per liter = £6.70/liter - £4.96 / liter = £1.74 / liter

Percentage profit = profit per liter / cost per liter × 100

Percentage profit = (£1.74 / liter) / (£4.96/liter) × 100 = 35.08% = 35%

Given f(x) = 6x^4 – 10x^3 + 40x – 50, find f(2)

ASHA 777 [7]

F(x)=6x^4-10x^3+40x-50, plug 2 in for x
f(2)=6(2)^4-10(3)^3+40(2)-50
f(2)=12^4-30^3+80-50
f(2)=20735-27,000+80-50
f(2)=-6,235

The perimeter of a rectangle is 30.8 km and it’s diagonal length is 11 km. Find it’s length and width

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Length of the rectangle is 15.0325 km and width is 0.3765 km.

Explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 30.8 km

Length of diagonal of rectangle = 11 km

To find:

The length and width of rectangle=?

Solution:

Lets assume length of the rectangle = x km

And assume width of the rectangle = y km

Lets first create equation using given perimeter

perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( length + width )

=> 30.8 km = 2 ( x + y )

=> $x + y = \frac{30.8}{2}$

=> y = 15.4 – x ------(1)

As diagonal and two sides of rectangle forms right angle triangle whose hypoteneus is diagonal ,

=> $length^2 + width^2 = diagonal^2$

=> $x^2 + y^2 = 11^2$

=> $x^2 + y^2 = 121$

On substituting value of y from (1) in above equation we get

=> $x^2 + (15.4-x)^2 = 121$

=> $x^2 + (15.4)^2 + x^2 – 2 x 15.4 \times x = 121$

=> $2x^2-30.8x + 237.16 -121 = 0$

=> $2x^2-30.8x + 116.16 = 0$

Solving above quadratic equation using quadratic formula

General form of quadratic equation is

$ax^2 +bx +c = 0$

And quadratic formula for getting roots of quadratic equation is

$x= \frac{ -b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac)}}{2a}$

As equation is $2x^2-30.8x + 116.16 = 0$ , in our case

a = 2 , b = -30.8 and c = 116.16

Calculating roots of the equation we get

$x=\frac{ -(-30.8)\pm\sqrt{(-30.8)^2-4(2)( 11)} } {(2\times2)}$

$x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{(948.64-88)}}{4}$

$x=\frac{30.8\pm\sqrt{860.64}}{4}$

$x=\frac{(30.8\pm29.33)}4$

$x=\frac{(30.8+29.33)}{4}$

$x=\frac{(30.8-29.33)}{4}$

=> x = 15.0325 or x = 0.3675

As generally length is longer one ,

So x = 1.0325

From equation (1) y = 15.4 – x = 0.3765

Hence length of the rectangle is 15.0325 km and width is 0.3765 km.

Multi step equations 4-5x=29

Gemiola [76]

Answer: x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) subtract 4 from both sides (-5x = 25)

2) divide -5 from both sides (x = -5)

Then you have the answer!

Someone please help me make a proof for the bottom question

Lerok [7]

Answer:

DB = CA (Proved)

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement 1.

∠D = ∠C, M is the midpoint of DC and ∠1 = ∠2

Reason 1.

Given

Statement 2.

Between Δ DBM and Δ CAM,

(i) DM = CM,

(ii) ∠D = ∠C and

(iii) ∠DMB = ∠CMA

Reason 2.

(i) given

(ii) given and

(iii) ∠ DMB = ∠1 + ∠AMB and ∠CMA = ∠2 + ∠AMB

Since ∠1 = ∠2, so, ∠DMB = ∠CMA.

Statement 3.

Δ DBM ≅ Δ CAM

Reason 3.

By angle-side-angle rule.

Statement 4.

DB = CA

Reason 4.

Corresponding sides of two congruent triangles. (Answer)
