Leah is having a brunch. She wants to serve her guests 2 gallons of juice that is 75% orange juice and 25% pineapple juice. She

has several gallons of 100% orange juice. She also has several gallons of a mixture of 60% orange juice and 40% pineapple juice.
How many gallons of each type of juice should Leah combine to make 2 gallons of a juice mixture that is 75% orange juice and 25% pineapple juice?

Let p represent the number of gallons of 100% orange juice and let m represent the number of gallons of the 60% orange juice-40% pineapple juice mixture.

Which of the below equations can represent one of the equations in the system?

A. p = 2 + m

B. 0.6p = 1.5 + m

C. p + 0.6m = 1.5

She wants to serve --------- >  2 gallons of juice that is 75% orange juice and 25% pineapple juice

then 

2*0.75------------------ > 1.5 gallons of orange juice

2*0.25------------------ > 0.5 gallons of pineapple juice


2 gallons------------ >1.5 gallons of orange juice+ 0.5 gallons of pineapple juice

if 1 gallons pineapple juice mixture--------------------- > 0.40 gallons pineapple juice

X------------------------------------------------------------------- > 0.50 gallons pineapple juice

X=50/40=1.25 gallons juice mixture

1.25 mixture gallons---- > 0.50 gallons pineapple juice+0.75 gallons orange juice

Therefore

(2-1.25)=0.75 gallons of orange juice

2 gallons------------ >0.75 gallons of orange juice+ <span>1.25 mixture gallons  </span>

0.75*(p)+1.25*(m)=2--------------- > (0.75/1.25)*(p)+(1.25/1.25)*m=2/1.25

0.60p+m=1.6

 The answer is 0.60p+m=1.6

Answer:

  B.  0

Step-by-step explanation:

If you subtract the right side expression and simplify, you get ...

  4/5(20x +5) -(16x -2) = 0

  16x +4 -16x +2 = 0

  6 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . false

There is no value of x that will make this true. There are no solutions.

m∠RSU=(5x+7)° and m∠UST=(9x−1)°. If ∠RSU and ∠UST are complementary, what is the measure of each angle?
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

37° and 53° respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to know that the angles are complementtary if ∠RSU + ∠UST = 90°. Then,

5x+7 + 9x-1 = 90

5x + 9x +7 -1 = 90

14x +6 = 90

14x = 90 - 6

14x = 84

x = 84/14

x = 6.

Then, the angle ∠RSU has measure 5(6)+ 7 = 30+7 = 37, and the angle ∠UST has measure 9(6) - 1 = 54-1 = 53.

Examine the pattern of numbers in the table , and find a formala for y in terms of x.
lana66690 [7]

Plotting the points could help you notice that they lie along a parabola. In particular, you can see that y is always 4 more than x^2.

So, the relation is

y=x^2+4
