1/2 because it's 2 times smaller
The answer is J because each one can be proven as false except answer J
Number of pounds of cashews is 36 pounds and number of pounds of walnuts is 4 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given details are cost of cashews = $1.58, cost of walnuts = 78 cents = $0.78, total weight of nuts = 40 pounds, cost of nuts per pound = $1.50
- Step 2: Let number of pounds of cashews to be mixed be C, then number of pounds of walnuts will 40 - C. Form equation with these variables.
⇒ 1.58 C + (40-C) 0.78 = 40 × 1.50
⇒ 1.58 C + 31.2 - 0.78 C = 60
⇒ 1.58 C - 0.78 C = 60 - 31.2
⇒ 0.8 C = 28.8
⇒ C = 36 pounds
- Step 3: Calculate number of pounds of walnuts
⇒ Number of pounds of walnuts = 40 - C = 4 pounds
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4/x + 4/(x²-9) = 3/(x - 3)
4 / x + 4 / [( x - 3) ( x + 3 )] = 3 / ( x - 3 ) / * x ( x - 3 ) ( x + 3 )
Restrictions : x ≠ 0, x ≠ - 3 , x ≠ 3;
4 ( x + 3 ) ( x - 3 ) + 4 x = 3 x ( x + 3 )
4 ( x² - 9 ) + 4 x = 3 x² + 9 x
4 x² - 36 + 4 x - 3 x² - 9 x = 0
x² - 5 x - 36 = 0
x² - 9 x + 4 x - 36 = 0
x ( x - 9 ) + 4 ( x - 9 ) = 0
( x - 9 ) ( x + 4 ) = 0
x - 9 = 0, or : x + 4 = 0
Answer:
x = 9, x = - 4
