Answer:

180 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitchell has to use more coffee than usual for two reasons: First, he's making a larger pot than usual (15(15left parenthesis, 15 cups rather than 10)10)10, right parenthesis. And second, he's using the Arabica coffee, which requires 20\%20%20, percent more coffee for the same strength.

Instead of brewing \blue{10}10start color blue, 10, end color blue cups, Mitchell wants to brew \red{15}15start color red, 15, end color red cups, which means he has to use \dfrac{\red{15}}{\blue{10}}=\purple{1.5}  

​  =1.5start fraction, start color red, 15, end color red, divided by, start color blue, 10, end color blue, end fraction, equals, start color purple, 1, point, 5, end color purple times more coffee.

3

As his friend said, Mitchell also has to use \pink{20\%}20%start color pink, 20, percent, end color pink more coffee than usual, so he'll have to multiply the amount of coffee by \green{1.2}1.2start color green, 1, point, 2, end color green, or \green{120\%}120%start color green, 120, percent, end color green.

4

The total amount of coffee he has to use is 100100100 grams \times×times \purple{1.5} \times \green{1.2} = 1801.5×1.2=180start color purple, 1, point, 5, end color purple, times, start color green, 1, point, 2, end color green, equals, 180 grams.

When 200 gallons of oil were removed from a tank, the volume of oil left in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity. what was th
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"When 200 gallons of oil were removed from a tank" algebraically looks like this:

V - 200.

"...the volume of oil left in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity" algebraically looks like this:

3/7(V)

Therefore, the equation is

V - 200 = 3/7(V)

Begin by multiplying both sides by 7:

7(V - 200) = 3V and

7V - 1400 = 3V so

-1400 = -4V so

V = 350 gallons

That's if the volume of the oil in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity.

For the other part of the problem, we set up the equation almost the same, except the 3/7 is a 1/2:

V - 200 = 1/2(V)

Multiplying both sides by 2 gives you

2(V - 200) = V and

2V - 400 = V so

-400 = -V so

V = 400

What constant term is necessary to complete the perfect square trinomial pictured in the algebra tiles?
gayaneshka [121]
The algebra tiles show two equal factors. They are (x + 4).


Then, the perfect square is the product of the two equal factors, (x + 4) * (x +4).


That is (x + 4)^2.


Then develop that perfect square to find the constant term.


(x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 8x + 16.


That means that the constant term needed to complete the trinomial is 16.
