ABCD is a square. M is the midpoint of BC and N is the midpoint of CD. A point is selected at random in the square. Calculate th
almond37 [142]

Answer:

1/8 or 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the sides of the square ABCD.

Therefore, the length of CN and CM is x/2.

The area of the triangle MCN is:

A_t = \frac{0.5x*0.5x}{2}=\frac{x^2}{8}

The area of the square ABCD is:

A_s =x*x =x^2

Thus, the probability that a random point lies in the triangle MCN is:

P=\frac{A_t}{A_s}=\frac{\frac{x^2}{8}}{x^2}=\frac{1}{8}=0.125

The probability that the point will lie in the triangle MCN is 1/8 or 0.125.

How many pounds of cashew nuts worth 75 cents a pound must be mixed with 10 pounds of pecans worth $1.50 a pound to make a mixtu
Trava [24]
Let c represent the weight of cashews and p the weight of pecans.

Then c + 10 = total weight of the nut mixture.

An equation for the value of the mixture follows:

 $1.50(10 lb) + $0.75c = (c+10)($1.00)

Solve this equation for c:  15 + .75c = c + 10.  Subtract .75c from both sides:

15 = 1c - 0.75c + 10.  Then 5=0.25c, and c = 5/0.25, or 20.

Need 20 lb of cashews.


Check:  the pecans weigh 10 lb and are worth $1.50 per lb, so the total value of the pecans is $15.  The total value of the cashews is (20 lb)($0.75/lb), or $15.     Does (20 lb + 10 lb)($1/lb) = $15 + $15?  Yes.  So c= 20 lb is correct.
