Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
No slope means slope is undefined --> you have vertical line that passes through (4,-6), where x=4, y= -6
For the mix you need 60 Ib of nuts and raisins, and 60 lb of mix will sell for $300.
Let <em>x</em> be the weight of nuts and <em>y</em> the weight of raisins needed for the mix.
Total weight = <em>x</em>+<em>y</em> = 60, so <em>y</em> = 60 - <em>x</em>
Total value = 6<em>x</em> + 3<em>y</em> = 300. From the above, we can substitute the <em>y</em> for 60 - x:
Total value = 6<em>x</em> + 3(60 - <em>x</em>) = 300, which we can simplify to:
6<em>x</em> + 180 - 3<em>x</em> = 300, and simplify again to:
3<em>x</em> = 120, and again to:
<em>x</em> = 40. We can now calculate<em> y</em> from the first equation y = 60 - <em>x</em>, so:
y = 20.
40 lb of nuts and 20 lb of raisins. Check:
40 lb x $6/lb = $240, and 20 lb x $3/lb = $60, $240 + $60 = $300.
Answer:
what following measurements?
12/16=6/8
6/8=3/4
3/4=0.75
0.75=75%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 60 minutes in 1 hour
and 186 divided by 60 = 3 remainder 6
which means you have 3 hours and 6 minutes
that will get you the mixed fraction of
3 6/60 which can be simplified to
3 1/10
You just divide 0.72 by 0.36 which gives you 2. then you multiply that by 2 which gives you an answer of 4
