Answer:
35 pounds of $8.00 tea and 15 pounds of $6.00 tea
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the pounds of tea of the $8 kind. 8x would represent the total cost of that type of tea. We can also say 50 - x is the pounds of tea of the $6 kind, so 6(50 - x) is the total cost of that type of tea. 50 * 7.4 represents the total cost of all the tea, and the expression 8x + 6(50 -x) would also represent the same thing. We can write this as an equation,
8x + 6(50 -x) = 50 * 7.4
simplify,
8x + 300 - 6x = 370
2x + 300 = 370
and solve.
2x = 70
x = 35
This means there is 35 pounds of the $8 kind.
We can subtract that from 50 to find,
50 - 35 = 15,
15 pounds is the amount of the $6 kind.
Answer:
= -√6
Step-by-step explanation:
1) collect like terms by subtracting coefficients:
3√6 - 4√6
(3-4)√6
2) calculate (3-4):
(3-4)√6
-1√6
3) the coefficient of -1 does not have to be written, but the negative sign remains:
-1√6
-√6
so therefore:
-√6 is your answer
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Call that number “x”
The square of that number is x^2
Also as the cube is x^3
The ratio between these 2 values is 1:3, this means x^2 / x^3 = 1 / 3
<==> 1 / x = 1 / 3 (eliminate “x^2” for numerator and denominator of the fraction x^2 / x^3 )
<==> x = 1 * 3 / 1 = 3
So, that number is 3 ! This math problem seems simple ;)
3/2 / 1/4 = 3/2 * 4/1
3*4= 12
2*1= 1
n= 12/1 or 12
Hope this helps!
